FAQ

Depending on the machine configuration, the ZOLLER »redomatic« can measure tools with a maximum tool length of 600 mm to 1,000 mm and a maximum diameter of 420 mm to 800 mm.

To address this, we have developed a specialized shrink-off function that uses the »asza« length setting system to eject the broken round or shank tool.

The ZOLLER »redomatic 600« MST was specifically developed for the automated measurement, adjustment, and shrinking of round or shank tools in MST shrink fit holders.

Lifetime varies by manufacturer and can be specified in our database. Our ZOLLER coil heats your chuck very gently to maximize its lifetime and reduces your energy costs by up to 30%. 

After you have used the shrink fit holder, the »masterPiece« setting adapter, and the tool in the »redomatic«, the length limit is automatically adjusted to match the target tool length. This ensures an accuracy of less than 10 μm when adjusting the target length. The repeatability of measurements with »the« »redomatic« is the same as with other ZOLLER presetting and measuring machines and is a maximum of 2 μm.

You can choose between our automatic induction coil with the »varOct« shielding system and the manual version with shielding discs. Both coils are available in a 14 kVA execution. The coil with shielding discs is optional for use as a 22 kVA coil for shrinking larger shrink fit holders with diameters ranging from D40 mm to D50 mm and reinforced shrink fit holders (thicker walls).

With the help of our image processing technology», pilot 4.0,« all measurement and shrinkage parameters can be saved and called up in a matter of seconds—for example, via the ZOLLER »idChip«. This guarantees a clean and error-free process.

Your device should be installed on a concrete or similar floor slab with a maximum unevenness of 2 mm. The installation site should be equipped with compressed air, a power connection, and a network connection. The device should be protected from direct sunlight, cold or warm air currents, magnetic fields, and vibrations to prevent the measurement results from being distorted.

On our carrier system, all components for the shrink-wrapping process are provided with an overview and are ergonomically arranged. This provides operators’ personnel with a comfortable working environment. On the »redomatic 600« model, the »sls« heat-shrink guiding system on the carrier system also uses additional LED indicators to highlight the correct component for the upcoming step. To make the shrink-wrapping process even simpler and more safe, the cooling bells on both the »redomatic 400« and the »redomatic 600« are equipped with the »coolbyLight« user guidance system, which uses a color-coded LED system to guide the operator through the cooling process.

With the help of our automatic length stop system, »asza«, the tool can be held in the required position during the heat-shrink process, maintaining a tolerance of 10 µm on the overall length.

The entire process—from shrinking through cooling to the final measurement of a round or shank tool—takes about 2 to 3 minutes and depends on the tool type, diameter, etc.

We offer a variety of adjustment pins in our product line, which can be selected as needed. The device uses the LED-controlled user guidance of the »sls« shrink-wrapping system on the carrier system to display which pin you need to use. The pins are simple and user-friendly to screw in using a threaded connection, allowing them to be exchanged in just a few seconds.

The »swomp« (shrinking without »masterPiece«) measuring program makes it possible to quickly and reliably shrink-fit all types of drills to a specific target length. It does not matter whether the tool is new or has been reground. During the heat-shrink process, the »asza« automatic length setting system is prepositioned, the shrink fit holder is heated, and the tool’s length is set with high precision without the need for an adjusting adapter.
