By Wayne Drysdale, Global After Sales Manager, ANCA Effective aftermarket support is an opportunity. If done poorly, it could lead to unnecessarily lengthy downtime – for example, through the slow delivery of replacement parts – which will cost both the vendor and the customer. Loyalty, money and reputation are all at stake. It’s been argued that manufacturing companies are becoming more and more like service companies, and any line between the two is getting harder to draw[1]. There have been many articles recommending that manufacturing companies invest in a high performing customer service team to better meet their customers’ needs[2]…

1. In our opinion, Green Manufacturing is a many faceted subject. Each organization would be able to contribute to this aspect in different ways. 2. We feel that Generating powe, savings of water, savings of oil and lubricants, avoidance of loss of compressed air, etc. are a step in the right direction. 3. We have set up Solar Power at both the plants and we are generating about 50% of Power consumed by us from Solar Power. This means substantial savings on state- run electricity boards supply. 4. We have done Rain water harvesting in our second plant. This has…

The new Genesis 200GX and 260GX Threaded Wheel Grinding Machines from Gleason were developed to suit the requirements of the automotive industry. The sharp rise in the variety of machining tasks means that setting-up machines plays an increasingly important part in setup times. Short setup and non-productive times, simple operation The machines of the GX series use the tried and tested 2-spindle concept. Clamping and unclamping of workpieces, or spinning off workpieces which are wet with oil are all performed on the second workpiece spindle in parallel with machining. This cuts unproductive idle time, i.e. chip-to-chip time, to just 4,5…

For overhead handling tasks, J. Schmalz GmbH has developed the JumboFlex High-Stack. Operators use the tube lifter to stack goods with a maximum weight of 45 kilograms ergonomically and up to a height of 2.55 meters.Loading pallets with cardboard boxes or sacks is tedious – especially at a height. Even with a manual lifting aid, the maximum stack height is usually 1.70 meters. This is where the new JumboFlex High-Stack proves its worth. Thanks to its long, swivel-mounted operator handle, stack heights of up to 2.55 meters can be reached ergonomically and effortlessly for the operator. The High-Stack therefore provides…
