Presetting & Measuring
Save Costs and Improve Safety with Tool Presetting
To manufacture parts with precision, modern CNC machine tools require exact tool geometry data. With the tool presetter, you can determine the tool data outside the machine, thereby saving a significant amount of setup time. As soon as you use the tool, you can immediately import the tool data from the tool presetter. Data transfer occurs electronically, ensuring complete accuracy since typing errors and transmission errors are eliminated.

Tool Management
Good Reasons to Produce in a More Cost-Effective Way
- Reduce setup times: The right tool is always in the right place at the right time. Data output in controller format avoids input errors at the machine and the resulting costs.
- Find Instead of Search: You always know which tools are available for which machines and where they are
located. - Better organization: Planned workflows with predictable cycle times and efficient checks ensure efficient process management and, consequently, short response times. Autonomous production units can be integrated and organized.
- Prevent machine downtime: All tools are always available, 24 hours a day. Using the correct tools on the machines avoids collisions and avoids tool breakage.
- Guarantee quality: High system availability and transparent, stable production processes guarantee the highest quality.
- Save on storage costs: You can see which tools are used and how often, and order only what is actually needed.
- Maximize tool potential: Optimal cutting speeds and feeds increase tool life.
- Increasing productivity: An optimized tool circulation ensures short lead times and fully utilized machines, boosting productivity and reducing manufacturing costs.

Inspection & Measuring
Measuring machines ensure precise manufacturing
To ensure that tools perform exactly as planned, they must themselves be manufactured with precision. With our Universal measuring machines, tools can be measured to the micrometer and checked to ensure they correspond to the requirements.
Automation
Automation Solution for Tool Measurement
Whether in the tool grinding shop or during the preparation, provision, and set up of tools—automating day-to-day tasks will be the answer to this challenge. ZOLLER provides the right solution for automated tool handling for every task. Depending on the requirements, the solution can lie in a closed system with additional modules, a complex automation concept or collaborative robot support in the tool room.

Tool Heat Shrink Technology
Short setup times thanks to the use of a shrink-wrapping machine
For many drilling and milling tools, tool shrink-fitting is the fastest and, at the same time, the most precise method of clamping the tool. With an appropriate shrink station, the necessary steps can be easily carried out; a shrink station can largely automate these steps while guaranteeing process reliability through appropriate measurements.
Tool Balancing Technology
Balancing grinding wheels and tools? It's important—and simple!
Precision-balanced tools are extremely important for modern cutting machines. Unbalances in grinding wheels, tools, and tooling systems cause wear and tear or even damage to spindles and motors—and, not least, result in scrap workpieces. Regular balancing prevents downtime, ensures quality, and reduces your overall costs.
