The challenge:
the objective was to speed up processes all-round:
more machine hours per day and more parts per hour were to be
achieved. To lower production times, the interim periods between a
finished part and the next were to be shortened in specific.
The solution:
JAI found the ideal partner in ZOLLER – everything comes
from a single source here, from external tool presetting and measu-
ring, via safe data transmission to the machine through to tool orga-
nization. For example, the data on the eleven machines is now called
up in real time via the CPC networking system – a process-safe and
time-saving procedure.
The result:
„With the ZOLLER Tool Management
we save a lot of time as everyone knows where
the tools and individual components are. The
tools are organized far better. Today, I know
exactly which tool I need for which part and
how often. In addition, the ZOLLER tool pre-
setting and measuring machine provides us
with data we can trust 100%“, states Claus
O. Nielsen of JAI. The modular system was
introduced step by step and will be exten-
ded further. This way, JAI benefits more and
more from the ZOLLER overall solution.
