Presetting devices increase productivity, quality, and process reliability

Short setup time, high machine uptime: These are the two most important factors for increasing the productivity of your machine tools. A tool presetter determines all key data in advance and transfers it to the machine without errors.

To operate with precision, CNC machine tools require exact tool geometry data. If this tool data is determined in advance and outside the CNC machine, it can be imported immediately upon using the tool without any delay.

Electronic data transfer from the presetter to the machine tool not only prevents typing errors and other transmission problems, but is also completed in a short period of time. This not only reduces setup time to a minimum—the setup time for the new tool is effectively zero—but it also allows you to maximize tool life.

Preset Device – The Benefits

  • Setting and setup time are separated: Tools can be prepared while the CNC machine tool is still running—this can even take place in separate locations if it simplifies or speeds up the work processes.
  • No setup time: Thanks to the electronic transfer of the prepared tool data, the machine control system receives the correct information without delay and without errors
  • Increased process reliability: No more errors from manual setting thanks to fully electronic data transfer directly from the presetter to the CNC machine.
  • Quality from the very first part: Your machines, perfectly supplied with data, produce top-quality results from the very first workpiece and generate no scrap. With exact measurements of tools, there are also no collisions or interruptions.
  • Longer tool life: Thanks to minimized setup times and adjustment times, the machine can operate more effectively and productively. With regular checks of cutting edge quality in the presetting device, top quality is consistently maintained.

Work Better, More Effectively, and More Productively with ZOLLER Presetting Devices

ZOLLER tool presetters are designed to handle all applications.

Our measuring machines use modular systems, allowing you to put together the right solutions for any requirement. They can be configured with appropriate measurement methods for different parameters and tools—whether for fully automatic or manual measurement. The result is always a precise measurement.

The intuitive user interface is extremely simple, safe, and convenient to use. Among other features, the devices offer automatic tool edge detection, a one-hand control handle for easy slide adjustment, and a membrane keypad for power-operated spindle clamping and spindle locking.

Direct electronic transfer of tool data—which makes input errors a thing of the past—is, of course, possible with all devices. ZOLLER presetting devices offer different options for secure data transfer to the machine—whether for SMEs or large companies, and whether for Heller, Index, or other machine manufacturers.

In addition, there are simple options for importing and exporting tool data, as well as other features.
