The Swiss company Willemin-Macodel is a world leader in the market for high-precision machining centers. Specializing in the development of complete custom machining solutions, its services go far beyond a simple machining center. Indeed, Willemin-Macodel integrates a robot into most of its machining centers. But why integrate a robot into a machining center?
The notion of automation can cover many different concepts. Willemin-Macodel offers all degrees of automation, from a simple loading robot to a complete cell including loading, unloading, machining, finishing and inspection. The aim is to implement a machining solution that perfectly matches the customer’s requirements, whether in terms of pure machining, handling, traceability or control. Today’s technologies make it possible to produce single parts or very small series, with the same rationality and productivity advantages as for large production runs. The flexibility and robustness of Willemin-Macodel’s machining solutions make this possible.
Automation doesn’t simply mean installing a robot to replace an identical operation. For Willemin-Macodel, it means taking a step back with the customer to propose a global solution that had not been thought of before, and thus offer more. With the help of robotization, for example, the Swiss firm has set up a complete production line for a customer in the medical sector, integrating part, batch and tool management with full traceability (it even has an integrated a printer to produce the reports required by the customer). Another example is a cell equipped with cryogenic machining, which guarantees contamination-free machining.
