The Swiss grinding machine manufacturer, Fritz Studer AG, wins a user satisfaction award in China. This prize was awarded by the "AI Automobile Production" magazine during the Chinese Engineering Fair CIMES in Beijing. In total, 38 products and solu-tions for the automotive industry won awards.
The "AI User Satisfaction Award" is awarded every two years by the Trade Magazine "AI Au-tomobile Production". This summer, 38 products used in vehicle technology achieved an award. This includes the solution for precise grinding of CVT shafts and pulleys on the STU-DER S41.
The precise grinding of CVT shafts and pulleys is a classical application of the STUDER S41. The machine can be equipped with grinding wheels for external and internal cylindrical grind-ing. A self-developed groove-grinding unit, as well as a CNC-controlled Y-axis allow the ma-chining of all ground surfaces in one clamping. With the combination of In- and Post-process measuring, high precision with no scrap parts can be achieved.
Fit for Industry 4.0: The STUDER software for an MES system realizes real-time process mon-itoring and ensures complete traceability of all workpieces. With this project solution, STUDER was able to inspire the users and fulfil the wish of Editor-in-Chief Gong Shujuan: To motivate the industry to offer users even greater efficiency, quality and better cost-effectiveness.
