Manufacturers are increasingly looking to automation to drive operational efficiency and overcome skill shortages on the shop floor. However, only with process automation technologies in place can you implement the physical automation of your operations. Physical automation in turn leads to increased productivity, and productivity to sustainability through reduced waste and energy consumption.

Italy — During EMO Milano 2021, Fanuc will show a number of new technologies on its stand that are to turn the vision of an automated future into present-day reality.

Germany — Manufacturing companies in many sectors are currently struggling with supply bottlenecks for essential semi-finished products, starting materials and raw materials.

Italy — In the mid-90s CRP Technology set out to be the first industrial company in Italy to use 3D printing processes. Since then, the family-run company has been making its mark with the development of high-performance 3D printing materials for demanding applications.

Germany — In the cutting tool industry, the trend is moving away from standard tools towards more complex geometries that are specially adapted to the specific application. In order for manufacturers to be able to produce these special tools economically, smart solutions are required. Anca will be presenting the technology, software and automation that enables tool manufacturers to design multiple tool types and grind them in one batch at EMO Milano 2021 on stand F10 G09 in Hall 2.

Utilising the full potential of data ensures not only higher productivity but also paves the way for increased user-friendliness, efficiency and flexibility in machine tool manufacturing. Siemens even goes as far as to promise “Infinite opportunities from infinite data”.

At this year’s EMO international machine tool exhibition, held in Milan on the 4 to 9 October 2021, on Stand F18 in Hall 3 Fial will launch a number of new ranges of steady rests, including Self-Centring steady rests; the Coolant Series with feed for the steady rest’s rollers; a Mini Series for multi axis lathes and mill-turn centres and a range of high accuracy steady rests for grinding applications.
