Nano grinder raises productivity by 50%
For precision grinding, the Nano grinder is only one fifth of the size of a traditionally constructed one and enables productivity improvements of up to 50%.
This three-year deal implies KMT Lidkoping supplying grinding machines and system solutions for modules at SKF's production facilities worldwide.
Each precision grinding module comprises at least one grinding machine with an integrated robot and materials handling equipment.
SKF has been one of KMT Lidkoping's major customers.
However, this new master agreement means a deeper collaboration and greater volumes.
"The master agreement with SKF is an acknowledgement of KMT's technological leadership and innovative capacity," commented Johan Westberg, business area manager of KMT Grinding.
"Notably, these qualities are symbolized by our newly developed machine range, which was one key reason for securing this agreement.".
