Management
“I have been working on this quotation for far too long now! If I had concrete work plans and component calculations then I would already be done with creating it.”

Work planning
“We were slow with the last order because we had to obtain the reference values for the application. If we could access tool and technology data in the CAM system with just two clicks – that would be the ticket! Today there’s a solution for everything. Surely for that too?”

Machining
“Up until now everything with the planning has worked perfectly. It would be great if the data transfer between the tool pre-setting and the machine went just as smoothly.”

Quality assurance
“The last customer order went perfectly. But documenting the applied torque is very time-consuming. Is there nothing here that can make this easier?”

Assembly
“Production is on target, but we won’t meet the delivery date because we don’t have the right measuring tool! Why don’t we have any system to help us in planning our calibration orders?”
The future of production combines analogue and digital
Digitalisation doesn’t just mean bringing together what belongs together. Digital, optimally networked solutions can really rev up your business. Simplicity sometimes creates major difficulties, and no-one knows this better than you in work planning and machining! Wouldn’t it be nice to have all tool data ready and just a few clicks away in your CAM system or digital tool management system?

Simply digital – digitally simple.
Simply calculate cutting and performance data using an app? Simply use up-to-date and good quality tool data? Or get tips for the right tool for your current machining task? Digital tools for the industrial production of today provide just that, and a good deal more. Intelligent tool selection and technology data identification are already standard in many places for machining methods such as boring, milling, turning or tapping. It’s not much different for measurement and testing technology: analogue and manual belong in the past, the present is digital and supported by tools. Modern, digital tools combine the demands of error-free and simple documentation to make your everyday production hassle-free.
Bring together what belongs together.
The array of digital tools opens up a wide variety of opportunities to you and makes your daily routine easier, from drawing up quotations and work planning to production and quality assurance. Find your perfect digital aid today!
