The Digital Turn in the Machine Tool Market
Today's machine tools are characterized by diverse and high-precision machining options for a wide variety of workpieces. Modern computer-controlled systems make this possible.
But the road is far from over. Digitalization is driving the development of machines and CNC control technology at an immense speed. It opens up many new possibilities to increase productivity and changes industrial production sustainably.
Two pioneers in exchange
What this means in concrete terms is told in the interview by two pioneers of the digital transformation of the machine tool:
Dr. Wieland Klein, CTO of Heinrich Georg GmbH and
Dr. Wolfgang Heuring, CEO of Siemens Motion Control
Grinding tests for customers in North America
In our facility located in Roanoke/Virginia our (potential) customers can carry out grinding tests on their own rolls using a state-of-the-art GEORG ultragrind SG 2. This demonstration machine in our Northamerican show room is equipped with the world’s most modern grinding machine control system i.e. the GEORG smartcontrol. At our Roanoke facility, we also manufacture and assemble our smallest roll grinding machines of the GEORG ultragrind SG 1 series. Meanwhile we have supplied more than 100 machines of this type worldwide. From the next bigger series now a GEORG ultragrind SG 2 is ready for demonstration and testing in Roanoke. Convince yourself about the easy operation and performance of the machine in interaction with the modern control system. In case of interest please contact Jochen Münker, jochen.muenker@georg.com
A new Baby is born. Look forward to the GEORG precisioncut TBA 300 robotline. More info coming soon.
For almost 75 years we have perfected the idea of making work easier and more efficient.
Invests in own mechanical production
Heinrich GEORG Maschinenfabrik GmbH continues to regularly renew the machinery of its own mechanical production. After commissioning the first REIDEN machine in 2020, GEORG is now already investing in a second machine from the Swiss machine tool manufacturer.
