New machines for Industry 4.0 in our factory
For some time now, in the design, realisation and modernisation of our range of work tools, we have chosen the direction of automation and increasingly ‘smart’ functioning.
Our machine park continues to grow, offering technology fully in line with the dictates of Industry 4.0, aimed at increasing performance and reducing consumption, thanks to optimisation through digital control.
Moving-column milling machine
The company's investment in the moving column milling machine manufactured by EMCO will allow us to increase productivity and minimise waste. Equipped with 3 independent linear axes with a moving column on the floor, the machine will allow 5 planes of a cube to be machined without clearing it, resulting in material savings of over 10%.
Remote control on the new milling machine
The machine will be integrated and interconnected to the factory system and will allow monitoring and control of the machining operations being performed directly from the technical and management offices, thus optimising the operator's working time, who will no longer have to manually enter the machining parameters.
Smart means efficient
The machine also provides centesimal precision control of its head movements, and uses all-electric motors to reduce not only maintenance and oil consumption but also the noise impact in the working environment.
The new milling machine speeds up the feeding processes in the production chain.
Its technology, compliant with the dictates of Industry 4.0, allows the analysis of data in real time, also significantly reducing the probability of slowdowns or machine downtime.
This means less waste of materials and time, greater precision and speed.
The interconnection and integration of the milling machine with the company's management software provides an overview of all phases of the production process, improving production speed (time reduced by 15 to 20%) and the quality of the finished product, while also reducing mistakes and production waste.
Sustainability
The milling centre is designed to have a low environmental impact: in addition to reducing raw material waste, it is able to increase performance and can be placed in a class 3K4 industrial environment (reference standard EN60721-3-3).
Benefits for the customer
The choice we have made makes us more efficient, effective, sustainable and faster; all advantages that are reflected in the ever-improving customer service we wish to provide.
Optimising our costs and processing times makes choosing us as a partner even more convenient for you.
And this is just one of the purchases we have planned: we will acquire more and more technologically advanced machines, with the aim of creating an entire state-of-the-art, automated production line, capable of further improving our production method.
