Reduce set-up time on multi-spindle automatics

A producer of standard machine components and mechanical machine indicators offers a way to reduce set-up time and improve productivity on multi-spindle automatics.

Elesa - for many years now an innovative leader in standard machine components and mechanical machine indicators - has brought their understanding of customer needs to Mach 2006. This takes the form of a way to reduce set-up time and significantly improve productivity on multi-spindle machines requiring frequent resetting. Their new Electronic positioning system includes its own programmable controller or can function with the machine's own PLC.

This allows the operator to see at a glance which shafts are in correct position and to then select new rotational ratios for shaft travel, etc Along with this exciting time/cost saving development for production and retro-fit applications, there are new ranges of hinges, latch clamps and grab handles.

These both complement existing ranges and extend performance/usability for anyone looking to source quality standard components as product solutions for new build or upgrade projects.
