Tuning up power press lines in virtual reality
'Press Tuning' encompasses 'Motion Tuning', which it offers users a convincing means of integrating existing power presses within a highly productive machine group.
Press Tuning encompasses the aspects of 'Motion Tuning', 'Control Tuning' and 'Virtual Tuning'.
* Motion Tuning is a direct development of the successful SynTEC technology and it offers customers a convincing means of integrating existing machines within a highly productive machine group.
For example, Muller Weingarten has taken the entire mechanization and drive expertise that went into the SynTEC series and adapted it for retrofitting.
The whole package is now available for its customers.
Furthermore, creative peripheral solutions such as front-of-line and end-of-line modules round off the 'Motion Tuning' range.
All of these solutions represent mature technologies and have proved their worth under exacting practical conditions.
And yet Press Tuning is more than simply optimizing the mechanical systems of existing machines.
Rather, it is concerned with developing new products and improving processes in general to give the customer substantial added value.
* Under the concept of 'Control Tuning', Muller Weingarten is presenting its 'Control Center', which is a new control and visualization platform.
The Control Center connects modern industrial design with a high-performance user interface developed especially for the particular requirements of this business.
Together with the tools for digital simulation and virtual startup of press lines ('Virtual Tuning'), the user receives intelligent optimization solutions that offer greater safety, better performance and faster value.
Informative technical papers discussing the new technologies as well as successful practical examples round off the EuroBLECH offering from this leading company in the metalforming sector.
* About Muller Weingarten - Muller Weingarten is the only machinery and plant manufacturer in the world to combine the three key areas of expertise in metalforming, and above all in terms of automotive manufacturing: sheet metal forming, forging and die-casting.
Its extensive product portfolio puts the company in the center of production technology for vehicle components used in drive, chassis and body systems.
As well as its German sites in Weingarten, Esslingen, Erfurt and Remscheid, the Muller Weingarten Group owns subsidiaries in China, the USA, Mexico, Switzerland, the UK, France, Spain and the Czech Republic as well as maintaining a network of service centers worldwide.
