Machines and automation adapted

At H.P. Kaysser, leading international sheet metal processor/system supplier, the batch sizes are reducing, while the requirements continue to increase. Long setting times, a large stock and the problem of precise deadline control will all be resolved by the Automation LoadMaster® from Schuler in conjunction with the HELLER MCH 300 and MCH 350-C machining centres.

Task

  • to expand a three-layer system at the limits of its capacity, consisting of an automation system with 20 tool pockets and the HELLER MCH 300 machining centre
  • to integrate the entire workpiece management strategy into the system
  • small to medium batch sizes and just-in-sequence production facility
  • enhanced flexibility and productivity

Project scope & solution

  • Automation LoadMaster® from Schuler in conjunction with the HELLER MCH 300 and MCH 350-C machining centres
  • Automation LoadMaster® offers a storage capacity of 45 machine pallets on 3-level and 77 storage locations for the raw material over 5-level Euro pallets/Euro wire mesh crates

Result

  • 50 to 80 percent gain in chip-to-chip times
  • machine availability increased from 82 to just on 90 percent
  • in the case of long-running items (involving eight to nine hours per workpiece), a machine running time of 600 hours per month already achieved

HELLER solutions at Komax: Customer testimonial

Peter Arnold

Head of Mechanical Manufacturing at Komax

"If you have to deal with 30 pallets containing, at times, up to 50 different clamping points per clamping cube, you need the right tools in the magazine to avoid having to constantly change the tool sets. Our tool count currently stands at 409. Comparable or smaller machines simply do not achieve capacities such as these."

Managing Director at Franz Haas Waffelmaschinen

"HELLER has exceeded our expectations. Everything went well, the machines run extremely reliably and our throughput times have also measurably reduced."

HELLER solutions at Bitzer: Customer testimonial

Frank Brunner

Head of Manufacturing and Production Engineering at Bitzer

"For batch sizes of up to 3 components, the machining centres have to perform reliably as soon as they are switched on, even after scheduled shutdowns. But neither availability nor the required precision presented a major challenge to the H 6000."

HELLER solutions at Engel Austria: Customer testimonial

Gerhard Aigner

Head of Production at Engel Austria

"We consider quality to be fundamental. The tolerances for our core components are between two and three hundredths of a millimetre. That's why we made the conscious decision to go for HELLER machines, which are renowned for their stability."

HELLER solutions at Fette Compacting: Customer testimonial

Nicholas Warnken

Project Manager at Fette Compacting

"Key contributors to these massive savings are fewer setups thanks to the 5th axis and higher achievable cutting parameters. On the other hand, however, it was the overall package, including the automation system and new tool technologies, that was able to optimise the processes in this way".
