Reduce defence costs.
With automation solutions: HEDELIUS on 18 June at 12.00 noon in a webinar at the METAV Web Sessions.
It is hard to deny the importance of production concepts. Large companies in particular are often already very advanced in this area. Small and medium-sized companies, the customer base of the northern German family business HEDELIUS, must also follow suit. The mechanical engineering company from Meppen wants to provide support.
Optimisation of tooling times and set-up costs.
HEDELIUS has therefore been offering interfaces to its CNC machining centres for external manufacturers of automation solutions for some time now. The company's own pallet automation system is now also available. This is because the demand for automated machining centres, especially for the production of 5-axis components, is constantly increasing. "We are noticing that more and more customers are looking for automation solutions," reports HEDELIUS Managing Director Dennis Hempelmann. HEDELIUS will be presenting the fact that automation has a significantly positive effect on tooling times and set-up costs for machining centres in a webinar at the METAV Web Sessions on 18 June at 12.00 noon. It will also address the question of which means and optional features can be used to implement these optimisations and which automation solution is the right one for which application. Dennis Hempelmann will explain the content to the webinar participants. "I am sure that many companies are concerned with the topic of automation. I would like to give the web session participants an understanding of the advantages and opportunities of automating machining centres. Of course, anyone interested can also contact us after the webinar."

What do the Olympic Games have to do with metalworking? At first glance, not much. Some might immediately think of the customary bite that winning athletes take out of their medals. But it’s worth taking a closer look – because the right equipment can make all the difference when it comes to those crucial hundredths of a second. When German athletes compete for medals at the Olympics, in many cases there is a great amount of development and manufacturing work behind the scenes. At the Institute for Research and Development of Sports Equipment (FES) in Berlin, this also includes CNC technology from HEDELIUS Maschinenfabrik in Meppen.
(PDF | DE) Machining large workpieces flexibly whilst reducing unproductive downtime: The TILTENTA 9-2600 with MARATHON LR810 combines the advantages of a universal travelling-column machine with high-performance heavy-duty automation. During the day, the machine remains freely accessible for the manual machining of large and complex single parts, whilst the automation system enables additional productive spindle hours outside regular shifts. Up to ten pallet locations and a transfer weight of 2,000 kg provide the ideal conditions for this.
Steingross Feinmechanik GmbH & Co. KG specialises in the manufacture of sophisticated CNC-turned and CNC-milled components – from prototypes through to series production. Founded in Berlin in 1990 by Uwe Steingross, the company sees itself as a comprehensive system supplier of CNC machining technology and combines modern milling and turning processes with surface treatment, precision finishing, final assembly and design consultancy. Since 2019, Steingross has been relying heavily on HEDELIUS as a technology partner – including for the automation of its manufacturing processes.
