Development partners in process integration The innovative mindset is also reflected in the company’s own production. “Because it means we can manufacture most products economically,” says Florian Zitt. In view of the limited space available, manufacturing solu- tions are called for that integrate as many machining steps as possible in one work area. “In DMG MORI, we have found a partner with which we can consistently continue to develop these possibilities.” He is refer- MILLING, TURNING, GRINDING: SHORT THROUGHPUT TIMES AND µ-PRECISION MACHINING ring here to the integration of grinding in a DMC 80 FD duoBLOCK. Both companies cooperated in the development of this solu- tion, which has been operating successfully since 2020. “The combination of three machining pro- cesses in one work area saves a lot of space, because we were able to replace three machines with the machining center,” says Florian Zitt, describing the conditions on the shop floor. On the other hand, throughput times have been drastically reduced because repeated setups, operations and idle times are a thing of the past. “The fact that we no longer have to reclamp components manu- ally also has a significant impact on accuracy,” says Florian Zitt, referring to the µm-precise production of the grinding wheels, which are of course machined with diamond grinding tools from the company’s own portfolio. “The extreme durability of these products makes a significant contribution to economical and also sustainable production.” Motivation thanks to responsible jobs Florian Zitt sees another advantage in the advanced technology integration: “In the past, milling, turning and grinding were very different disciplines. Today, these disciplines are combining to create an even more respon- sible job.” This makes a decisive contribution to motivation. “Today, I would no longer speak of machine operators, but of machine manag- ers, because we are dealing here with abso- lute high-tech.” Young people in particular are attracted to working with modern technolo- gies, which benefits Tyrolit in its training. “Our goal is, of course, to retain the apprentices for the long term,” says Florian Zitt. Automated production in virtually unattended shifts The integration of grinding on the DMC 80 FD duoBLOCK was one of two new developments for Tyrolit. The other is automated produc- tion. The machining center is equipped with a rotary pallet storage system for seven pallets, so autonomous production of individual parts is possible to a large extent. » CUSTOMER STORY – TYROLIT GROUP Tyrolit Polaris Plus LW grinding wheel base body in lightweight design.

CUSTOMER STORY – KUMERA ANTRIEBSTECHNIK GMBH Thanks to the gearMILL software, we can produce almost any gear shape with standard tools on our turn-mill machines – to a quality comparable to special gear cutting machines. Helmut Hochegger Managing Director Kumera Antriebstechnik GmbH The history of Kumera Antriebstechnik GmbH from Graz dates back to the year 1898, when Norricum Cless Graz built chainless gears for bicycles. Since 2000 the company has been a wholly owned subsidiary of the Finn- ish Kumera Corporation. Within the Kumera Power Transmission Group, the Austrian company with its approximately 50 employ- ees produces special gear units for hydro- power plants, the paper industry and chem- ical installations. 50 percent of sales are also generated by the service business, such as the overhaul and repair of industrial gear- boxes from our own product range as well as third-party products. Reliable machin- ing of the gear components is ensured by five turning and turn-mill machines from DMG MORI, including an NT 5400 and the NT 6600 installed in 2021 for turned parts having diameters of up to ø 1,070 mm and lengths up to 4,000 mm. Kumera pro- duces sophisticated gears on both turn- mill centers with the help of the exclusive DMG MORI gearMILL technology cycle. Reverse engineering of individual parts in just a few days “The order situation has developed posi- tively over the past few years,” says Helmut Hochegger, Managing Director of Kumera Antriebstechnik, about the good utilization of capacity in production. As the focus is mainly NT SERIES: TURN-MILL MACHINING OF WORKPIECES UP TO ø 1,070 × 4,000 mm on individual parts that have to be delivered as quickly as possible, flexibility plays a key role. “Especially in the service business, we try to provide spare parts within a few days.” The engineering expertise of the team is an important mainstay in this sector. “Very often we only have a single component, which we measure completely, redesign and carry out calculations and then produce it in the required quality”, is how Helmut Hocheg- ger describes the reverse engineering process. In production, Kumera can draw on a num- ber of different technologies: conventional machining, wire eroding, hobbing and grind- ing. The company continuously optimizes its processes by regularly investing in innova- tive manufacturing solutions. “The two turn- mill centers from DMG MORI helped us enormously here”, says Helmut Hochegger recalling their large work areas, both the NT 5400 and the NT 6600 cover a wide range of components and offer maximum machining versatility. Long shafts, for example, can be set up thanks to the steady rest. the procurements. With » Image left: The gearMILL technology cycle can be used to produce herringbone, bevel, spur and helical gears – quickly and with maximum precision. Produced on the NGT 6600 are large gears and other components, for example for test bench gearboxes. TECHNOLOGY E XCELLENCE 29

CUSTOMER STORY – KUMERA ANTRIEBSTECHNIK GMBH The user-friendly programming with gearMILL allows the flexible and economical production of sophisticated gears, flexibly and economically. Cost-efficient production of demanding gears What makes gearMILL so easy to use is the program creation based on draw- ings and gear data. In the case of the two NT machines, production takes place on standard machines with standard tools. “In combination with user-friendly programming, this allows us to produce sophisticated gears flexibly and economically,” explains Helmut Hochegger. Healthy growth and motivation of the next generation Kumera remains competitive in a fiercely contested market by investing in advanced manufacturing solutions, such as the com- plete machining of gears described above. Added to this are investments in training and further education, as Helmut Hochegger goes on to tell us: “Well-trained special- ists are needed to get the most out of the technology.” In addition Kumera promotes a self- reliant way of working in its modern pro- duction facility. “Experience shows that this contributes to staff motivation.” Into the future with technology integration and complete machining Technological progress in production will continue to play a major role at Kumera in the future. Also, against the background of limited production space at the urban site, complete machining and technology integration are a great help, says Helmut Hochegger: “We focus on high-quality products and components, which we must manufacture all the more efficiently if we want to keep growing strongly.” « KUMERA FACTS + Founded 1898 as Norricum Cless Graz, then later Kachelmann Getriebe GmbH + Since 2000 a wholly owned subsidiary of the Finnish Kumera Corporation + 50 employees in industrial gear construction, e. g. for the paper, steel and cement industries as well as for test bench applications Kumera Antriebstechnik GmbH Raiffeisenstraße 38-40 A-8010 Graz, Austria www.kumera.com TECHNOLOGY CYCLE gearMILL GEAR CUTTING ON STANDARD MACHINES WITH STANDARD TOOLS + Program creation based on drawings and gear data + Individually modifiable contact pattern + Post-processor for SIEMENS, HEIDENHAIN and MAPPS + Interface for coordinate measuring equipment (Klingelnberg, Leitz, Zeiss) + SPUR GEARS: Spur, helical and herringbone gears, segments + BEVEL GEARS: Spur, helical, spiral bevel and hypoid gears, axis angles other than 90°, Klingelnberg Zyklo-Palloid® and Gleason + WORM WHEELS: Profile ZA, ZN and ZI Click here for the gearMILL video: youtu.be/hqNlXwzNsj8 TECHNOLOGY E XCELLENCE 31

CUSTOMER STORY – BRUNVOLL AS HIGH AVAILABILITY OF PARTS FOR SHIPBUILDING Among other things, Brunnvoll manufactures low-noise transverse thrusters that reduce noise by up to 15 dB. As early as the beginning of the 20th century, Brunvoll Motorfabrik, which was founded at that time, produced the first diesel engines and propellers for fishing vessels. Based on an idea of the Gjendemsjø brothers, two local fishermen, the company began devel- oping and manufacturing tunnel thrusters in 1964 – still a common principle of marine propulsion. Today’s Brunvoll Group, based in Molde, Norway, stands more than ever for powerful marine propulsion systems, reliable gearboxes and innovative control electronics.

Maximum flexibility through automatic chuck jaw changeover The extremely diverse workpieces also require extremely diverse workholding . “With this manufacturing solution, it was essential that the robot could also change the chuck jaws”, said Magne Gøran Lyngstad describ- ing one of the challenges. For this purpose, DMG MORI equipped it with a special gripper and integrated a rack system in the cell with space for 60 sets of three jaws. The robot can handle the jaws into the robotic cell via a feed area and either store them or use them immediately. The clamping system developed by DMQP (DMG MORI Qualified Products) partner Schunk is designed explicitly for such auto- matic changeover. The jaws, as well as the gripper hands and pallets, are identified by an RFID system to ensure absolute process reliability. The reason Brunvoll commissioned DMG MORI to design and install the automation solution was partly because everything came from a single source – with one contact person who coor- dinated everything. The competitive price was another key factor. A team in Japan was responsible for the design of the manufactur- ing solution. “We also carried out the prelim- inary acceptance there in order to be able to make any subsequent improvements more ONE FACE TO THE CUSTOMER – AUTOMATION SOLUTIONS FROM A SINGLE SOURCE easily,” recalls Kjetil Hoem.

CUSTOMER STORY – RICHTER FEINGERÄTEBAU GMBH 1 2 A camera captures the exact position of the components on platforms. The robot grips the workpieces with precision based on the images. 1. DMG MORI integrated a blow-off station in the automation, which cleans each component before and after machining 2. Thanks to the use of several grippers, Richter Feingerätebau can also machine different workpieces automatically Founded 60 years ago in Groß-Zimmern, Germany, Richter Feingerätebau GmbH is an experienced supplier in the fields of hydraulics, wind power and mold making. From single parts to special solutions, 21 specialists realize highly complex com- ponents with manufacturing tolerances in the μ-range. Richter Feingerätebau has relied on CNC technology from DMG MORI for machining since 1993. Good experience with the machining centers and lathes – including a DMC 80 U duoBLOCK – led to the installation of a grinding machine from DMG MORI in 2022. The special highlight: DMG MORI fully automated the TAIYO KOKI IGV-3NT so that Richter Feiningerätebau can utilize it optimally more or less around the clock. Improved productivity with consistent quality “As a supplier to demanding industries, we have always stood for high-quality prod- ucts and absolute precision,” says Marina Gola-Richter, summing up the basic prin- ciples of Richter Feingerätebau. The sec- ond-generation family member has been managing the company founded by her father Wolfgang Richter since 2012 and knows the developments on the market very well. “Quality requirements are on the rise and components have to be available ever faster. In addition, competition is strong. In other words: in order to remain successful, Richter Feingerätebau must continuously increase its productivity – without any compromise in quality. DMG MORI for 30 years – now also in the grinding sector A large part of this business philosophy is the high-performance machinery. This includes, among other things, ten machine tools from DMG MORI. » TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE 51

CUSTOMER STORY –RICHTER FEINGERÄTEBAU GMBH Automated grinding as an individual special solution The special feature of the investment in the IGV-3NT is the automated process. DMG MORI in Japan designed this from scratch as a special solution. “We sent components to the team there and told them our ideas,” says Thomas Strauß about the beginning of the project. He is impressed by the result: “The system comprises 15 platforms that we can load freely with unmachined parts. A camera captures the exact position of the parts so the robot can later grip them precisely and move them into the machine,” is how Horst Hoferichter describes the configuration of the system. DMG MORI also integrated a blow-off device in the automation, which ensures cleaning of the workpieces before and after Automation solution for additional shifts and personnel reduction Richter Feingerätebau began automating grinding processes 15 years ago. “We wanted to benefit from the advantages this time as well,” says Thomas Strauß, justifying the extensive investment. “We work in a single shift, but this will ideally allow us to run two more shifts autonomously.” The reduction in personnel is also a key factor. “In view of the shortage of skilled workers, automated production brings an enormous benefit in day-to-day business.” For future investments Richter Feingerätebau will also focus on automation solutions. “We have already ordered a DMU 60 eVo for autonomous 5-axis simultaneous machining for this very reason.” « EVERYTHING FROM A SINGLE SOURCE: MACHINE, AUTOMATION AND PROCESS CONFIGURATION machining. To enable the automation solution to machine different workpieces flexibly, there is also a gripper station, which the robot uses depending on the order. As the automated IGV-3NT is a highly com- plex, customer-specific solution, the initial acceptance in Japan was carried out together with Thomas Strauß and Horst Hoferichter. “This made it far easier for us to coordinate final details”, Thomas Strauß explains. After completion, the entire system was sent to Germany and once again subjected to an acceptance test. “Despite the size of the project, everyone involved did a perfect job,” says Horst Hoferichter of the result. “And we had only one contact person who coordinated everything.” The system has been operating reliably since the end of 2022.

automatic tool change at two locations on the magazine wheel. In this way, the company was able to improve on its old production line both in terms of throughput and machining accuracy. To further increase productivity, TSUZUKI MANUFACTURING was also searching for an efficient solution to automate high-mix production for construction machinery parts. It is more difficult to automate variable-mix and variable-volume production, but the com- pany found that the highly flexible and precise solutions from DMG MORI meet all require- ments. It eventually introduced an automation system that consists of the self-driving robot WH-AMR 5 and 2× NTX 1000 2nd Generation turn-mill centers. Variable-mix / Variable-Volume Production with the Self-driving Robot WH-AMR 5 “We were looking for an automation system that would allow robots and operators to coexist and work together. The automation system from DMG MORI has enabled flexi- ble workpiece transfer between processes and made our production safer and more efficient”, says Mr. Kazuhumi Miyashita, the Director and General Manager of the Engineering Headquarters at TSUZUKI MAN- UFACTURING. In this system, the NTX 1000 integrates all required machining processes into one machine, while the WH-AMR 5 auto- mates all operations in the process chain, including workpiece transfer, workpiece load- ing onto the machine, unloading of finished workpieces and transfer to the washing sta- AUTOMATION SYSTEM COMBIN- ING NTX 1000 TURN- MILL CENTERS WITH THE SELF-DRIVING ROBOT WH-AMR 5 tion, reducing setup and maintenance time. As a collaborative robot system, WH-AMR 5 is cost effective since it enables long periods of unmanned operation and 24-hour production without requiring a safety fence or additional safety devices. Furthermore, WH-AMR 5 can take care of multiple machines in one area and perform various tasks that go beyond workpiece handling, including tool and fixture transfer, measurement and more. CUSTOMER STORY – TSUZUKI MANUFACTURING CO., LTD. 1 2 1. While handling large-scale orders from the automotive industry for tens of thousands of pieces a month and providing hundreds of different workpiece types to the construction machinery industry, the company successfully established an efficient quality management system that covers the complete process chain from prototyping to mass production. 2.

CUSTOMER STORY – WEHL & PARTNER MUSTER + PROTOTYPEN GMBH With the two PH Cell Twins, we were able to expand the production capacity of four machines by introducing additional unmanned shifts at night and at the weekend – without extending our factory thanks to the small 12.9 m2 footprint. Alexander Wehl, Managing Partner with his brother Robert Wehl, Managing Partner (right) Wehl & Partner Muster + Prototypen GmbH Wehl & Partner Muster + Prototypen GmbH produced the first workpieces for custom- ers in the automotive and medical sectors as early as 1994 – at that time still in a garage and with the help of a domestic oven to harden molds. Today, the company has 80 employees at an ultra modern plant in Zimmern ob Rottweil and also operates from an additional location in Spain. There is also a subsidiary in Salach. The tech- nological capabilities of Wehl & Partner include conventional machining, additive manufacturing and injection molding. To ensure only perfect samples and proto- types are delivered, the company relies on innovative manufacturing solutions from DMG MORI. 24 models from the machine tool manufacturer are used in production, including numerous, partly automated, 5-axis simultaneous machining centers. These include the two latest investments: Wehl & Partner has automated two DMU 75 monoBLOCKs and two DMU 50 3rd Gen- eration machines, each via a PH Cell Twin from DMG MORI. From the idea to series production “Customers from, the automotive and elec- trical industries and the aerospace sec- tor, among others, come to us with a plan and we realize their idea until it is ready for series production”, summarizes Robert Wehl, Managing Director of Wehl & Partner, speak- ing of his company’s service offer. He and his brother Alexander Wehl are second-gener- ation managers of the companyn. He adds: “The challenge is to produce near-perfect series parts practically at the first attempt so we are able to meet the short delivery times.” Wehl & Partner usually receives 3D data first, which are checked for feasibility. Initial mill- ing cycles are then created, followed by the development of tools for injection molding. » TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE 61

CUSTOMER STORY – ZHENGZHOU HENGDA INTELLIGENT CONTROL TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. is expected to reach nearly 2,000. Lot sizes range from one to no more than ten parts in most cases. This clearly shows that the mining industry needs efficient and flexible production lines. Zhengzhou Hengda has proactively grasped this trend and achieved significant growth through its forward-looking strategy. The company has always focused on the ongoing development of its products. This goes hand in hand with the optimization of manufacturing processes, i. e. the search for ever more advanced machining solutions. “In 2010, we were impressed with the NH 5000 DCG hori- zontal machining center from DMG MORI,” recalls Wang Haipeng, head of machining at Zhengzhou Hengda. “The machine’s box-in- box design ensures high rigidity and reliabil- ity.” A perfect solution, Wang Haipeng thinks: “We bought two NH 5000 DCGs and signifi- cantly advanced our manufacturing.” Automated manufacturing: Convinced by facts Due to the outstanding performance of both NH 5000 DCGs, Zhengzhou Hengda repeat- edly chose DMG MORI when expanding its production capacity. Soon, the topic of auto- mation through linear pallet pools (LPP) came to the fore. At that time, Zhengzhou Hengda was not convinced about automa- tion. The fear was that with a higher degree of automation of the machines, the need for maintenance would also increase. To ensure continuous operation of the new machine tools, Wang Haipeng – who was still a main- tenance engineer at the time – was assigned to this task as an operations engineer. “DMG MORI provided factual information that completely changed our understanding of automation,” Wang Haipeng recounts. “After the initial changeover, both plants were running very reliably and efficiently.” Intelligent production layout with linear pallet pools By the end of 2023, 14 NH horizontal series machines will be installed and automated with linear pallet pools (LPP). Initially, DMG MORI automated six models in 2018 using an LPP with 48 pallet posi- tions and three setup stations. The existing two machines were integrated as well. This was followed in 2020 by another LPP with 48 pallet positions and two setup stations. Here, four automated NH 5000 DCGs were put into operation. The satisfaction with these solutions is reflected in the latest investment. “In 2022, we purchased another four NH 5000 DCGs with LPP, which will be installed at the end of 2023,” says the man- agement of Zhengzhou Hengda. The inten- sive cooperation with DMG MORI has sus- tainably strengthened trust. Wang Haipeng adds. “When it comes to orders for major projects, especially in the area of research & development, we can rely 100 percent on machines supplied by DMG MORI.” Production of small batches in many variants According to the management of Zheng- zhou Hengda, the new production layout has definitely proven itself. They describe it in detail: “Hengda has connected R & D and production through the MES system, installed additional inline inspection equipment and retrofitted pallets, fixtures and other equip- ment for standardization.” In this way, Zheng- zhou Hengda achieved the optimal result in terms of both the software and hardware. As a result, flexible product changeover is now possible, while small series of many variants can also be manufactured productively. The management comments, “Today, manufac- turing one part for ten products is just as effi- cient as machining ten parts for one product.” Customer-oriented cooperation Zhengzhou Hengda is satisfied with what DMG MORI has accomplished in recent years. The management has been impressed by the customer-oriented consulting and on-time implementation of the projects. Even more important, they said, was the handling of individual requirements: “In particular, the integration of existing machines into a new LPP and the associated change in the pro- duction layout were a major challenge that DMG MORI mastered perfectly.” DMG MORI worked out a detailed plan for the moderniza- tion of the production line. “During the adap- tation and commissioning, which took almost 20 days, almost all machines remained in normal operation, so production capacity was not affected.” Zhengzhou Hengda has had an equally good experience in the area of maintenance. With DMG MORI into the future Zhengzhou Hengda intends to maintain the good cooperation with DMG MORI into the future. This is because the investments in R&D activities as well as the expansion of the product range will continue in order to further advance future-oriented projects in mining. Intelligent mines and digital twins are just two examples of this progress. DMG MORI will remain an important player in this development as a reliable partner in the field of machine tool technology. « Zhengzhou Hengda Intelligent Control Technology Co., Ltd. is a leading supplier in the mining machinery industry.

CUSTOMER STORY – WINKELBAUER GMBH Optical and functional testing in assembly: TULIP automatically generates the test reports. Thanks to TULIP, we have already been able to make a large number of our processes completely paperless – from assembly and cycle time recording to quality assurance. With this digitization we have succeeded in drastically reducing the amount of training required for machine operation. Michael Winkelbauer Managing Director Winkelbauer GmbH referring to the technologies used. These include state-of-the-art welding robots from ABB and IGM as well as advanced CNC machines from DMG MORI. Two DMC 90 U duoBLOCKs, a DMF 360 five-axis milling machine and a CLX 550 lathe have been put into operation since 2021. With TULIP to paperless processes Another building block in the innovation- driven strategy for several years has been digitization. “Our goal was to make all pro- cesses paperless, from order receipt to deliv- ery,” explains Stephan Winkelbauer, who is responsible for digitization in the produc- tion process. He is the fourth generation to work in the family business. The no-code platform TULIP, which Winkelbauer also introduced with the purchase of the DMG MORI machines, is playing an increasingly large role. TULIP APP enables step-by-step work instructions Winkelbauer implemented the first TULIP application on a new welding robot from ABB. “Our primary goals were a paperless pro- cess and less training expenditure,” recalls Stephan Winkelbauer. Since the robot’s pro- grammer knows the requirements best, he created a TULIP APP that presents detailed work instructions for operating the welding robot – step by step. “Until now, this informa- tion was stored in space-consuming folders, involved a great deal of searching and time, and in the end was still not always up to date. Now there is a PC in each of the two robot cells that displays everything very clearly.” Each instruction of the TULIP APP must be confirmed before the robot is operated, ensuring that all steps are carried out in a process-reliable manner and documented at the same time. Career changers trained in a few days instead of weeks Stephan Winkelbauer is also satisfied with the reduced training expenditure: “If required, we can also entrants that are career changers to operate the welding robot comparatively quickly and schedule them into production.” » TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE 77
