MX – MACHINING TRANSFORMATION MX – MACHINING TRANSFORMATION WHY 5-AXIS MACHINING? With 5-axis machining, you can machine 5 sides of a part in a single setup. This means you can reduce your production costs by reducing the number of fixtures, using standard tools, etc. You also reduce machining time and increase accuracy by eliminating manual reclamping. 5-axis machining is also the basis for further process integration, e. g. turn-mill, mill-turn, grinding, gear cutting, etc. WHY MX – MACHINING TRANSFORMATION? The needs of society change drastically every 10 years. We have continuously developed our business model in order to fulfill these needs with new products and services. We are driving forward with Process Integration, Automation, Digital Transformation (DX) and Green Transformation (GX). THERE IS NO RIGHT WAY – IT IS YOUR OWN WAY TO MX! No matter where you start ...

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: WORKPIECE HANDLING ROAD TO BECOMING THE NO. 1 ROBOT-WORKSHOP Fujii Kenma Co., Ltd. was founded in 1970 in Kato City, Hyogo Prefecture, and specializes in machining of metal parts for automobiles as well as agricultural and heavy machinery. With ten technicians and multiple turning and machining centers, Fujii produces a wide variety of parts according to customer needs. hoped. We also encountered problems with operator illness, which often made us change our plans and work overtime to meet dead- lines. Introducing robots and automating pro- duction was our only chance.” To automate its existing production processes, the company invested in its first MATRIS Light robot system in May 2022. As productiv- ity greatly improved, two additional MATRIS Light units with the Vision Camera option followed just six months later. ROBOT INTRODUCTION WITH UNCHANGED FACTORY LAYOUT MATRIS Light – compact & fence-free Mr. Akihiro Fujii, Senior Managing Director, explained the reason for the 3-part invest- ment: “Originally, we had to divide the pro- duction processes of many products across multiple machines, and even after adding a turning center for process integration, pro- ductivity did not increase as much as we had With MATRIS Light, production has doubled from about 1,500 to 3,000 units per month. The system has also eliminated manual errors and reduced the cost of training oper- ators, allowing the company to “focus on cre- ative work that only people can do,” says Fujii. “Robots from other companies require safety fences and layout changes to existing facili- ties, but MATRIS Light is a fence-free collab- orative robot. Basically, we only had to place it in front of the turning center. And this made it the perfect choice for us, as it eliminated the need for layout changes, which would have been time-consuming and costly.” Realizing around-the-clock, automated production Fujii Kenma utilizes MATRIS Light for the automatic transfer of a wide variety of work- pieces. Although MATRIS Light was initially not designed with 24 hours of continuous pro- duction in mind, the company implemented its own innovations to make it possible and maximize robot usage. One of the innovations was an in-house designed table for holding the workpieces prior to machining instead of a standard workpiece stocker. » MATRIS Light is constantly learning and getting smarter to meet our needs – throughout the whole night when people are asleep, without asking for overtime pay, and is ready for production again next morning.

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: WORKPIECE HANDLING On the CTX beta 800 4A, Interroll manufactures components for drum motors fully automatically from loading to unloading. As the drive of drum motors is located inside the units, they take up less space than conventional motors and therefore help to optimize the installation area. In addition, drum motors score points with their hygienic design, which meets the strict requirements of the food and pharmaceutical industries. Their smooth surfaces and enclosed design prevent the ingress of dirt and make clean- ing much easier, thus meeting the highest FLEXIBLE AND HIGHLY PRODUCTIVE PRODUCTION ON THE CTX beta 800 4A hygiene standards. The aluminum, steel or stainless steel components of these diverse products have been manufactured on DMG MORI lathes since 2006. They machine the small batch sizes reliably, to high precision and in short throughput times. “In particular, the CTX beta 800 4A with two spindles and two turrets is highly flexi- ble thanks to 6-sided complete machining” explains Alexander Leven. “We can either perform two successive operations on one component at the spindles or machine two workpieces at the same time.” Automated production since 2018 In the past, manual activities such as clamp- ing and removing the workpieces accounted for a relatively large proportion of what was actually a short machining process. Auto- mated handling was therefore the logical consequence. Alexander Leven, who designs such production solutions together with his colleagues André Honigs and Mehmet Özcan, remembers the first autonomous production cell: “In 2018, DMG MORI installed two CTX beta 1250 4A lathes, which are loaded and unloaded by a robot.” Such solutions are a huge benefit. “Employees have more time for preparatory tasks and quality control.” Flexible & automated turn-mill processing of bar stock While the first automated production cell is loaded by a robot, the CTX beta 800 4A installed in 2024 processes bar material up to 1,600 mm in length – also fully automatically. The large variety of parts can be manufac- tured due to the provision of bar magazines with eight guide channels, allowing bars of different diameter to be selected depending on the order.

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: TURN & MILL Compared to thermoplastics, which AMENT plastics also uses, thermosets place signifi- cantly higher demands on machining. “While the first produces normal chips, thermo- setting plastics produce dust that must either be extracted or flushed away, which in turn leads to an aggressive sludge,” says company founder and CEO Klaus Ament, explaining the difference between the two plastics. However, depending on the application – for example in electrical engineering – wet processing is not possible because the material then absorbs too much moisture. Thermosets are lami- nates made from synthetic resins. The layers consist of hard paper, cotton fabric or – since the middle of the 20th century – epoxy glass fiber. The latter in particular is considered to be very abrasive, which means that harder tools are required. “So every plastic has its own parameters, which experienced special- ists have to bear in mind during production,” says Klaus Ament, pointing out the impor- tance of good personnel. Future-proof production with complete machining AMENT plastics relies on modern CNC technologies to machine the often complex geometries. 5-axis simultaneous milling and 6-sided turning & milling are now standard. Erik Fleischmann, production manager, be- lieves that complete machining on turn-mill centers is the right way forward: 1. Klaus Ament (left), founder and CEO of AMENT plastics, and Erik Fleischmann, production manager. 2. With travels of 750 × 200 × 1,100 mm, the CLX 450 TC covers a wide range of components. With a bar loader and a container for finished parts, production can also run in unmanned night shifts. 3.

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: TURN & MILL | WORKPIECE HANDLING CAPACITY INCREASE BY MEANS OF ROBOT AUTOMATION WILHELM BAHMÜLLER Maschinenbau Präzisionswerkzeuge GmbH from Plüder- hausen has its roots in a mechanical work- shop that was established in 1945. Starting with circular shears, the company soon laid the foundation for its corrugated card- board processing business, which is still successful today. Over the years, the range of services has been extended to include precision grinding, automation and precision tools. 400 experienced engineers now ensure that the company’s processes run smoothly, from development to production and on to sales and service. BAHMÜLLER has been manufacturing using machine tools from DMG MORI for more than 40 years and currently uses ten different models. Since 2023, the company’s invest- ments in modern manufacturing systems have included automation solutions. For example, a CTX 1250 beta TC was retro- fitted with a Robo2Go in 2023. A CLX 450 TC followed later in the year, which was also equipped with user-friendly robot auto- mation. This has put BAHMÜLLER in a position to reduce its production costs and counteract a shortage of skilled personnel. Design and development of precision tools Its high quality and reliability standards have made BAHMÜLLER a competent partner in the manufacture of precision tools. “We fulfill all requirements for machining with our standard range of products for all of the most popular spindle connections, and also customizations,” explains Hans Binder, Thanks to the app-based operation of Robo2Go, it took less than a day to train an operator to use the system. 26 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: TURN & MILL | WORKPIECE HANDLING 6-sided turn-mill complete machining After installing two CTX beta 1250 TC turn- ing centres, a CLX 450 TC was purchased in 2023. “The work area is of a similar size and in this case we did not need 5-axis simultane- ous milling,” says Hans Binder, justifying the purchase of the entry-level model for turning and milling. “The attractive price obviously made the decision easier. The machining of workpieces, including tool bodies and milling heads, takes place from all 6 sides in a single process. The finished products only require burnishing and grinding.” Robo2Go: INTUITIVE OPERATION USING APP-BASED CONTROL BAHMÜLLER took a new step towards extending capacity in 2023 with the initial automation solutions. Hans Binder sees DMG MORI as the right partner for this: “The extensive range of automation provides a sufficient amount of choice to get started in this area.” Robo2Go is regarded as the perfect example. “DMG MORI succeeded in retrofitting the robot on the CTX beta 1250 TC very easily and the CLX 450 TC was installed as a complete, automated system.” In both cases, it only took a day to train an operator to use the app-based control of the Robo2Go. “The system is self-explanatory and intui- tive, because it guides the user through the process.” Low production costs thanks to unattended shifts In practice, both Robo2Go systems inte- grate into the everyday working environment in an optimum way. “We produce individ- ual parts and small batch sizes with short run times on the CLX 450 TC during the day at the same time as working on other machines,” says Hans Binder, describing the process. An additional employee is not required. “At night and over the weekend, we process bigger batches of up to 30 parts and components having longer running times completely unattended.” In this way, BAHMÜLLER has increased its capacity significantly and reduced production costs Robo2Go is the ideal starting point for digi- tization. It is simple to retrofit and training takes less than a day thanks to the app-based controller.

UMC attaches great importance to efficient processes and the consistent integration of technologies. The company has been using turn & mill technology for over twenty-five years to manufacture sophisticated components on six sides in one work area. The investment in three additional NTX 1000 2nd Generation machines in 2023 was therefore a logical step towards expanding capacity. Complex geometries in difficult-to-machine materials “Whether that is lifesaving medical compo- nents, an implant to improve quality of life, or engine components to bring families together across the globe, we are utilizing DMG MORI equipment to change people’s lives,” says Sarah Sundine, COO , giving an insight into the company’s range of services and the motivation that drives her and the team. “We focus on complex, palm-sized components made from difficult-to-machine materials.” The consistently clean and bright produc- tion areas reflect the demand for first-class quality. “Sometimes our products almost resemble jewelry.” With this high aspiration, UMC and its competent team have developed processes and installed manufacturing solu- tions that make it possible to accept new orders at any time – from prototypes to high volume production. “The DMG MORI equipment we have pur- chased is flexible and scalable for us so that we also can be flexible and scalable for our customers,” says Scott Peterson, Director of Automation and Facilities, explaining the strong focus on machine tool technology from the innovation leader. ”Machining is the largest contributor to our value stream by a significant margin. Thus, high machine uptime is crucial to be able to supply our customers on time at all times.“ The expe- rience with manufacturing technology from DMG MORI has shown that their machine tools work absolutely reliably and meet 32 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: TURN & MILL | WORKPIECE HANDLING Booming space side of the aerospace market While the medical and aerospace industries are continuing their growth, UMC has also been seeing a large increase in demand from the space side of the aerospace market. According to Scott Peterson this ties directly into UMC’s recent acquisitions of DMG MORI equipment: ”This machinery has proven to meet the highest standards in terms of productivity and quality. Thus, we will be able to make parts that ensure safe missions into space.“ Investment in further process integration as well as automation solutions Looking at its economic development, UMC continues to invest in growth. “We recently completed a 65,000 sq ft expansion, which is providing us with the opportunity to procure new equipment and restructure our orig- inal space to better serve our customers and provide scalability for the future,” says Sarah Sundine. UMC also owns more land beyond what is currently built upon for future growth. “We are dedicated to sourcing the best equipment possible to serve our cus- tomers and end users of the products we pro- duce.” As DMG MORI covers all disciplines for production – from sophisticated prototype manufacture to quality-oriented high volume production – UMC is planning to invest in the machine tool manufacturer’s produc- tion technology in the future. “An NTX 500 is high on the list for discussion. Its increased capability with a Y-axis turret, larger turret tooling capacity, increased RPM, and reduced footprint are very attractive”, Brian DeGrote says. Automation solutions are a clear choice for future investments as well. ”With the opportunity to have it shipped with robotics (IMTR), it checks all the boxes again.

Each part is then WE CAN LOAD THE SYSTEM WITH 150 BLANKS OF DIFFERENT SIZES Competitive for over 20 years thanks to automation solutions Sandvik Coromant works continuously on improving cost efficiency. Manufacturing of the high-quality tools is no exception, explains Steinar Løkken: “That’s why we have been using automated manufacturing solutions for over 20 years.” Norway is a typical high-cost country, where automation really pays off. “Gantry systems and robots increase component quality because man- ual handling is no longer necessary.” In view of the small to medium batch sizes and a large number of product variants, flexibility in production is another challenge. For Kristoffer Bjørnstad, Process Development Engineer at Sandvik Coromant Trondheim, robot solutions therefore play a major role. “The NZX 1500 has convinced us to continue along this path.” The automation solution is loaded with raw parts via a conveyor. The robot recognizes the position using a cam- era and takes over loading and unloading of the machine. NTX 3000 with customized automation solution With the automation solution based around the NTX 3000, Sandvik Coromant Trondheim has reached a new level of unattended pro- duction. “Our aim was to double our capac- ity and at the same time machine a wide range of CAPTO tool bodies,” says Steinar Løkken, recalling the start of the concept. DMG MORI was able to implement all the requirements. The system has three loading cleaned in a washing machine before being centered in another station. The robot uses one of four different grippers to load and unload the tool bodies – Capto C3 and C4, C5 and C6, C8 or a magnetic gripper for handling the blanks. In addition, a vacuum gripper is used to remove the wooden intermediate bases from the pallets of blanks. Doubling the production capacity “Handling is always fast enough that the next tool body can be inserted seamlessly after machining,” explains Kristoffer Bjørnstad. “We can run up to 150 parts of different sizes without human interaction, which enables high-capacity utilization with processing times of up to 15 minutes. It runs up to four shifts – unattended, with double the output.” 38 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: TURN & MILL | WORKPIECE HANDLING HIGH SPARE PART AVAILABILITY THANKS TO AUTOMATED PRODUCTION The CTX gamma 3000 TC, automated with MATRIS, produces high-precision spindles. The production process includes 6-sided complete machining, deep hole drilling, grinding and in-process measuring. 42 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: TURN & MILL | WORKPIECE HANDLING Future-oriented focus in production “We implemented our philosophy of inte- grating as many processes as possible and automating spindle production in 2023,” says Dennis Hartmann, looking back on the purchase of a CTX gamma 3000 TC with a MATRIS robot. Following positive experiences with previously installed machine tools from DMG MORI, those responsible in Oelde once again found what they were looking for in the market leader's product range. “The high degree of technology integration and the automation solution from a single source were the deciding factors in the market comparison.” Test runs were also convincing and the proximity to the DMG MORI factory in Bielefeld was a major advantage during the project. There is another point that stands out: from process integration and automa- tion to digitalized processes and sustainable management, GEA is pursuing exactly what DMG MORI is also aiming for with its Machin- ing Transformation (MX) – a future-oriented approach to the entire production process. 6-axis turning-milling, deep hole drilling, grinding and in-process measuring With the automated CTX gamma 3000 TC, GEA has firstly replaced an old machine and secondly made spindle production sig- nificantly more cost-effective. “Previously, machining processes were required on mill- ing machines, turning centers and a cylindri- cal grinding machine. Then there were the idle times in between,” explains Marcel Rich- ter. As machine operators, he and Patrick Wieder are responsible for operating the production cell. Their practical experi- ence was incorporated into the CTX design. The turn-mill center for 6-axis complete machining integrates all the different pro- cesses, including grinding, in one work area. “The result is significantly shorter through- put times. And we can make better use of the other machines at the same time,” says a satisfied Patrick Wieder. The in-pro- cess measurement also makes life easier for quality control. Deviations are corrected in the program so that the values remain consistent throughout the batch. “We can even determine tool wear automatically using a measuring fixture. If the actual value exceeds the target value, the tool is replaced by a sister tool.” 44 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE Optimum equipment for process reliability and flexible automation The CTX gamma 3000 TC was selected to enable reliable and flexible machining. “The size was necessary because we machine spindles that are up to 1,000 mm long. We need sufficient travel in the X-axis for deep hole drilling,” says Patrick Wieder, explain- ing the choice of model. A powerful coolant pump prevents the accumulation of chips that would interrupt the process. Another special feature is a separate compartment for oversized tools in the right-hand section of the work area. “This allows us to carry out the grinding process with larger wheels, for example, which saves time and reduces tool costs,” explains Marcel Richter. The biggest advantage is, of course, the fully automated production of entire batches. The MATRIS system was designed to be loaded via four pallets. The robot takes the raw parts and aligns them so that it can clamp them cor- rectly in the chuck and steady rest. The fin- ished parts are then placed back on the pallet. The close cooperation with DMG MORI “A split screen shows the executed operations on the left and the corresponding G-code on the right, while a live view of the operations being performed at the main or counter spin- dles further enhances the understanding of the programs.” Solution-oriented collaboration throughout the entire project Process optimization in Oelde is a continuous process that will also be the central issue for future new acquisitions in the factory. “Whether as a replacement for old machines or as part of technology integration – our investments in production are always driven by innovation,” says Dennis Hartmann, ex- plaining the motivation behind new acqui- sitions. “A solution-oriented partner like DMG MORI is a great support, especially for large projects that can extend over a period of up to two years, as in the case of the CTX gamma 3000 TC.” « SIMPLE WORK- SHOP-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING WITH OP WORKBENCH was also evident where programming is concerned. With the installation of the CTX gamma 3000 TC, GEA was also a pilot cus- tomer at the Oelde site as part of the devel- opment of OP Workbench. “The software significantly simplifies the work involved in workshop-oriented programming,” says Marcel Richter, assessing the added value in terms of time. “OP Workbench uses master programs to which we add set-up parameters such as the length of the chuck. Machining sequences are placed in the right place in the program using drag & drop.” The resulting operation sequence is sent to the NC, where the user enters the G-codes to produce the workpiece.

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: TURN & MILL | MILL & TURN OPENING UP NEW MARKETS WITH PROCESS OPTIMIZATION GRANDE-TEK Flow Control Co, Ltd. was founded in Hebei, China as a national high-tech company in 1996. The company specializes in the development and manu- facture of flow control systems and valves. Its sales organization is export-oriented. Formerly, up to 90 percent of sales were generated in Europe, the USA, Japan and other parts of the world. In recent years, however, manufacturing industry in China has grown rapidly, to the extent that the domestic business of GRANDE-TEK Flow Control now accounts for 50 percent of its sales. This development has led to numer- ous investments in manufacturing technolo- gies. DMG MORI has been a regular partner since 2021 and has already installed various 5-axis milling and mill & turn machines, such as the DMU 125 FD duoBLOCK and versatile turning centers such as the NLX 2000 and the CTX beta 1250 TC turn & mill machine. When it comes to machining, GRANDE-TEK Flow Control has opted for DMG MORI. With the most recently acquired VERTICAL MATE 85 for grinding, there are now eight machine tools from the innovation leader on the factory floor. Process integration mill & turn and turn & mill “With strong growth in domestic trade and the opening up of high-end markets, the demands on product quality are also increasing”, is how Feng Junliang, Deputy Managing Director of GRANDE-TEK Flow Control, assesses the business development and the impact on production. “Our chal- lenge is therefore to meet the expectations of our customers. We are continuously optimizing our manufacturing processes to achieve higher accuracy and produce the demanding workpieces more efficiently.” CNC TECHNOLOGY FOR HIGH-END MARKETS Only cost-effective production will ensure we remain competitive in the long term in a fiercely-contested growth market.

Feng Junliang Deputy Managing Director GRANDE-TEK Flow Control For Feng Junliang these are decisive criteria, because after 20 years of experience in flow control technology, GRANDE-TEK Flow Control is well aware of these factors: “That is why we attach great importance to con- sistent technological innovation and invest- ment in profitable production technologies.” Particularly during the unstable economic situation in recent years, GRANDE-TEK Flow Control took the opportunity to expand its know-how in manufacturing technology – with the help of DMG MORI. Machine tools for every application: 5-axis simultaneous milling, 6-sided turn-milling and grinding Feng Junliang sees a decisive characteristic of DMG MORI in its focus on advanced manufacturing concepts: “Like no other, the machine tool manufacturer combines inno- vative and efficient machining technologies with a sustainable direction of travel.” Added to this is the trouble-free and friendly cooperation. This is reflected in the machine tools that have been installed since 2021: it started with the 5-axis simultaneous machining centers DMU 95 monoBLOCK and DMU 75 monoBLOCK plus the NHC 6300 horizontal machining center and the NLX 2000 turning center.

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: 5-AXIS MILLING | WORKPIECE HANDLING RESOURCE- PRESERVING PRODUCTION BY MEANS OF ROBOT HANDLING 52 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: 5-AXIS MILLING | WORKPIECE HANDLING “Our two MILLTAP 700 systems have proven that 5-axis machining is crucial for produc- tivity,” says Dominik Thoma, assessing the investments. The DMU 50 was a logical step, adds Daniel Thoma. “The 5-axis simultane- ous machining center is more stable, which allows us to perform machining that is more efficient and precise.” The compact design including Robo2Go Milling has also made it possible to extend the tool magazine to 60 locations. “This is more than sufficient, particularly for automated operation.” The Machine Protection Control 2.0 technology cycle, for example, is equally as valuable in autonomous manufacturing. “In this way, we can avoid collisions and tool breakage in an absolutely reliable way.” Consistent use is made of these and other digitalization features in order to optimize processes even further. “my DMG MORI is a good example, since it speeds up our service requests significantly and makes them completely transparent,” says Daniel Thoma. Fast and flexible order planning thanks to Robo2Go Milling DMG MORI has been trying out Robo2Go for several years – initially as Robo2Go Turning on lathes. “The Robo2Go Milling for machining centers was brand new when we placed the order,” recalls Dominik Thoma. It is said to have been the first of its kind in Bavaria. The compact automation solution was an exact fit for the part of the building which was intended for this pur- pose, since when it has mainly machined workpieces for the medical sector. “There are two versions of component that Robo2Go Milling handles from a magazine,” says Dominik Thoma, describing the process. However, other orders can also be integrated quickly and flexibly. Daniel Thoma sees a clear advantage here: “Because we often have to react at short notice to fulfill delivery 5-AXIS MACHINING AND DIGITALIZATION AS A PRODUCTIVITY FACTOR deadlines.” Impressed with the DMU 50 with Robo2Go Milling, Mechanik-Moduls purchased a second, identical solution in 2023 to increase its capacity. Dominik Thoma is satisfied with the decision: “This allows us to machine the rear of the medical compo- nents at the same time.“ Convenient rental purchase with the support of DMG MORI Finance Mechanik-Moduls has made repeated in- vestments in machine tool equipment from DMG MORI with the support of DMG MORI Finance right from the beginning. “This makes us more independent of our main bank and the conditions are comparable,” says Dominik Thoma, explaining the financing. DMG MORI Finance provides leasing, rental or hire- purchase – the latter was chosen by Mechan- ik-Moduls – and provides the possibility of reduced initial installments in order to pre- serve liquidity. This allows the machine to generate additional profit early on. Annual fee-free special repayments are also possible. Future-proof modernization of the machinery Because of the company’s positive expe- rience with automated machine tools from DMG MORI and the financing options, Mechanik-Moduls would like to keep the good cooperation going. As soon as older machines need to be replaced, DMG MORI’s wide range of products will be examined for future-proof manufacturing solutions. Daniel Thoma is already looking ahead: “Automation solutions will be an important component, because they will allow us to maximize our capacity utilization and mitigate the shortage of skilled workers.” « SPRINT 32 | 8: Up to 28 tool locations on 2 independent linear tool carriers enable highly productive production of workpieces with a diameter of up to 32 mm.

PRECISION MACHINING FOR CUTTING- EDGE RESEARCH PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: 5-AXIS MILLING 56 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

5-axis simultaneous machining for complex, high-precision components The high standards of research at the MPQ are also reflected in the in-house workshop. “Our laboratories need very special, high-pre- cision optical instruments to carry out their experiments”, explains Michael Rogg, who has been at the institute since 1986 and head of the workshop for 13 years. “Engineers design device components according to the specifi- cations of the researchers, which we manu- facture to the required quality and accuracy.” For this task, the workshop team is equipped with modern 5-axis simultaneous machining centers from DMG MORI. The most recent acquisition was a DMU 40 in December 2023. “The stability of the machines and their extensive cooling systems allow precise machining of the often complex geometries,” says Michael Rogg. Complexity and precision on the one hand and the wide variety of materials on the other are what characterize the orders in the MPQ workshop. “As many experiments are carried out in a vacuum, stainless steel components are common, but aluminum, copper alloys or special plastics are also used due to their indi- vidual properties,” comments Michael Rogg on the wide range of materials. The challenge lies in taking the behavior of the diverse materials into account in the machining MAXIMUM MATERIAL DIVERSITY AND INDIVIDUAL MACHINING STRATEGIES process. Another challenge is the individual machining strategies. The mostly small work- pieces can be very delicate and this in turn requires machining that is as stress-free as possible. Michael Rogg mentions tolerances that are in the range of a few micrometers in extreme cases: “Even a thread cutter can cause unwanted deformations.” That is why an M1 thread has already been milled on the DMU 65 monoBLOCK and not cut.

The fact that the newly integrated zero point pallets are mounted directly in the work table maximizes the amount of work space and minimises the risk of collisions. Peter and Julian Klein (right) Managing Directors of Peter Josef Klein Feinmechanik GmbH DMU eVo: Dynamics and precision in 5-axis machining PJK has been using DMU 60 eVo universal machining centers for many years. In order to achieve even more precise and dynamic machining, the majority of the machines are equipped with linear drives. “The machines produce our range of components by 5-axis machining in an optimum way and fulfill our tight tolerances at the same time,” says Julian Klein, evaluating the manufacturing results. “We mainly operate in the micro- meter range and have to consistently guarantee these accuracies.” Automated production also makes a contribution to quality: “In this way, we reduce the num- ber of manual reclampings, which can also lead to inaccuracies.” MTS clamping system: Space-saving and stable interface for pallet changing For the two DMU 60 eVo machines inte- grated into the large pallet handling sys- tem, DMG MORI has developed a table that has an embedded MTS zero point clamping system. Julian Klein explains the move: “The original table took up too much room with a fixture mounted. The new solution is flat- ter and has a smaller circumference.” This maximizes the work area and minimises the risk of collisions. “The machining also becomes more stable, which improves the precision.” Peter Klein sees a major advantage in the flexibility of the pallet handling: “The clamping system makes it possible to use conventional pallets equipped with towers for series production or with tra- ditional vices.” This leads to a very wide range of components the two DMU 60 eVo systems can machine completely autonomously. Reliable production thanks to DMG MORI Full Service* and my DMG MORI Being equipped with these kinds of flexi- ble and autonomous manufacturing solu- tions means that PJK needs high machine reliability. In the case of large pallet han- dling, the seven DMU 60 eVo machines are in continuous use for up to 22 spindle hours per day. “Long downtimes would have a detrimental impact on operations,” says Peter Klein. “This is why service plays such a crucial role in our collaboration with DMG MORI.” When it purchased the DMU eVo models, PJK decided on DMG MORI Full Service*. The all-round, care- free package includes all service, travel and spare parts costs as well as annual mainte- nance for customers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. It includes Allianz machine breakage insurance. “We also make inten- sive use of the my DMG MORI online portal, because service processes are handled transparently and quickly in this way,” adds Julian Klein.

The company started as a castings provider, but entered the machining field in the 1980s for higher business value. Since then, Kusuda has achieved significant growth by developing a unique system to handle the whole process by themselves, from casting to machining and on to product delivery. INH 63 AND CPP DRIVE PROCESS INTEGRATION AND AUTOMATION FOR HIGHER PRODUCTIVITY Kusuda continues to uphold its philosophy of “Harmony and Progress” to this day with its state-of-the-art technology, machine tool parts and castings that directly contribute to the development of manufacturing industry. Kusuda has been a supplier of DMG MORI since the very beginning, providing various parts such as spindle housings and flanges. On the other hand, Kusuda has also been a user of DMG MORI machines since the 1980s, with approximately 40 machines currently in 70 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

PROCESS INTEGRATION & AUTOMATION: 5-AXIS MILLING | PALLET HANDLING Casting process by metal melting and pouring at temperatures exceeding 1,000° C. CPP pallet handling system for high-mix production with maximized machine utilization Kusuda manufactures its in-house castings to be near net shape, which enables higher efficiency during machining and shorter lead times compared to machining from billets. To increase the machine utilization further, unmanned night shifts with a large number of pallets are necessary. For Kusuda, this meant purchasing the INH 63 with an 8-station CPP (Compact Pallet Pool). “Actually, our factory floor space would have limited us to only 6 stations in the standard design, but thanks to DMG MORI‘s special design, we were able to install the larger 8-station CPP,” Mr. Kusuda recalls. In addition, the technology cycle CELOS Chatter Control is employed to automati- cally optimize cutting conditions. “By avoid- ing chatter on the finished surface, we can reduce our workload and improve productivity. Moreover, tool management sys- tem allows us to machine safely with- out overworking tools, and even if a tool is damaged during night shift, the the the tool breakage detection prevents acci- dents”, says Mr. Kusuda, appreciating the productivity-enhancing features. Protection against chips, coolant and mist to improve the working environment The INH 63 utilises the new zero-sludge COOLANT pro, an evolved version of the original zero sludge coolant tank with high- performance chip evacuation capabili- ties to prevent chips accumulating inside the machine and support long periods of unmanned operation. Why is it crucial to reduce tank cleaning? Mr. Kusuda recalls past workloads and states that: “Sludge accu- mulates quickly in the coolant tank because we mainly machine ferritic cast iron. In the past, three staff spent a whole day cleaning the tank two to three times a year.” The built-in mist collector zeroFOG col- lects more than 99.97 % of particles as fine as 0.3 µm in diameter, preventing problems caused by mist. Mr. Yamanaka smiles: “Thanks to zeroFOG, the machine is not filled with mist at all and the view is really clear. The INH 63 greatly benefited our machining capabili- ties. We will further promote our unique integrated production systems, covering all processes from casting to machining. Kiyoto Kusuda Manager, Sales Department KUSUDA Co., Ltd. 72 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

The great- est increase in capacity was achieved by two NHX 5000 3rd Generation machines. Con- nected via a linear pallet storage system with 40 pallet stations, the horizontal machining centers work without any significant idle times. Volker Hille, Production Manager, points to the two setup stations: “We load the towers with a wide variety of components while other pallets are being processed.” The orders can be managed transparently via the Cell Controller LPS 4. The NHX 5000s at TITAN are equipped with CELOS on SIEMENS. CTX beta 1250 TC 4A: 6-sided turn-mill machining with Robo2Go and gearHOBBING The latest highlight in automated produc- tion is a CTX beta 1250 TC 4A with Robo2Go. Equipped with the compactMASTER turn- mill spindle and a second tool carrier, the machine can cope with any challenge in 6-sided complete machining. The integration of several manufacturing processes extends to gear hobbing, as Volker Hille explains: “The gearHOBBING technology cycle allows us to use a hobbing cutter to produce the finest gear teeth on the components, which are responsible for transporting the straps.” This machining process was anything but trivial, recalls Dirk Peters: “The fact that DMG MORI found a machining strategy for this was a decisive factor for the invest- ment.” DMG MORI installed a bar feeder and the latest version of Robo2Go Turning as an automation solution. The robot has a maga- zine cabinet with up to five drawers in which the raw parts and finished workpieces can be stored. One function of the new Robo2Go was developed by DMG MORI in collaboration with TITAN, says Volker Hille: “We wanted to integrate automatic remnant removal so that the machine can also change over to the next bar unmanned.” 76 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

XXL machining on the ULTRASONIC 200 Gantry DMG MORI has the ULTRASONIC 200 Gantry in its range for ultrasonic machining of large components. The machine is based on the DMU 200 Gantry and offers trav- els of 4,000 × 2,000 × 1,200 mm. The stable foundation of the gantry construction is an optimal basis for high-precision processing of the mirror segments. Coherent poured a new concrete floor for this purpose, which was additionally reinforced. “This ensures mechanical stability,” explains White. “We have also improved the temperature control in the factory in order to achieve constant ambient conditions.” Reliable clamping and machining The biggest challenge, however, lies in the enormous diameter and thinness of the workpiece. “Using a normal clamping pro- cess, the component could warp,” says Mr. White. The component could jump out of the fixture after being released, which would jeopardize the dimensional accuracy. Due to the asymmetrical and aspherical shape, a simple vacuum chuck is also not a suit- able solution, so the engineers at Coherent developed a proprietary fixturing approach that uses a combination of support and clamping systems. White is very satisfied with the result: “This fixes the mirror seg- ment in all degrees of freedom without causing unwanted bending.” He added that he is impressed by the machining results of the reliable process: “The ULTRASONIC technology significantly reduces the process forces thanks to the repeated interruption of contact between the tool and workpiece. On one hand, this ensures perfect surfaces and cutting edges because there is virtually no material chipping. On the other hand, it also perfectly accommodates the complex clamp- ing concept.” Partnership-based cooperation with DMG MORI at all levels The reasons for investing in the large ULTRASONIC 200 Gantry model from DMG MORI were in part due to the good experience with the innovative machining technology. Additionally, there was already a good partnership with the machine tool man- ufacturer: “The response times for service are always good and the individual configura- tion options of the machines make selection easier,” says Matthew White, assessing the cooperation. He would like to continue this for future investments. “The next step will be to expand our ULTRASONIC capacities with an ULTRASONIC 80 eVo linear.” « In ULTRASONIC machining, the diamond tool oscillates along its axis at a high frequency and low amplitude – in addition to the tool’s own high-speed rotation. 88 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

DX – DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION: DIGITAL TWIN FLYING COMPONENTS PROGRAMMED VIRTUALLY Helicopters have had a permanent place in the long history of Airbus since the 1960s. The Donauwörth site also looks back on a history characterized by aviation techno- logy. 1972 saw the establishment of Mess- erschmidt-Bölkow-Blohm GmbH (MBB), in 1989 Deutsche Aerospace (DASA) acquired a stake in the company and in 1992 MBB merged with French Aérospatiale to form the Eurocopter Group. This became part of the EADS Group in 1999. As part of the restructuring and renaming to Airbus Group and later Airbus, Eurocopter be- came today’s Airbus Helicopters GmbH in 2014. Around 8,000 employees are respon- sible for the development and construc- tion of helicopters for civil and military use at the location in Donauwörth. Machining processes are brought to series maturity and certified for each new component in mechanical production, so that produc- tion can also take place at other locations in compliance with all safety regulations. » 102 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE

Airbus Helicopters found an optimal solution in the Digital Twin from DMG MORI. It represents the digital mirror image of an individual DMG MORI machine tool. This mirror image contains the work area with all components, includ- ing all functionality such as movements and control functions as well as the NC and PLC and their cycles. Reduced costs thanks to faster production ramp-up, collision-free run-in and realistic training “The exact 1 : 1 simulation of the programs brings us significant advantages,” empha- sizes Steffen Rössner. “We can be sure that the process on the machine is collision- free and we achieve a significantly faster production ramp-up thanks to the virtual tests, while the systems continue to pro- duce.” With a view to avoiding collisions, Thomas Heinrich adds: “The license for the Digital Twin certainly pays off if a major crash is avoided thanks to the simulation.” He mentions another advantage as well: “We can use the Digital Twin to identify unused pro- duction potential and develop it digitally.” In DMG MORI’s opinion, the functionality of the Digital Twin goes far beyond this. The strengths of the software also come to bear where training is concerned, for example. Realistic training to avoid unproductive machine hours is a significant cost benefit for companies. SAFE PRODUCTS AND PRODUCTION PROCESSES THANKS TO THE DMG MORI DIGITAL TWIN The possibilities of the DMG MORI Digital Twin fit perfectly into the day-to-day business and the philosophy of Airbus Helicopters. “The safety of our products has top priority. This applies likewise to our manufacturing pro- cesses,” says Thomas Heinrich, linking the two aspects. “The Digital Twin is the perfect tool to guarantee this level of safety.” «

AUTONOMOUS SERIES PRODUCTION FOR E-MOBILITY from unmachined part to production, wash- ing, quality inspection and deburring to the final, unique marking of the components. Precision from tradition in the 4th generation The range of services provided by PWS has developed continuously over the decades. “We have constantly expanded our product range, particularly in terms of materials,” explains Daniel Jud, who is a member of the fourth generation to run the company as a manag- ing partner. His great-grandfather started processing black steel and stainless steel followed later. “Aluminum and titanium are becoming increasingly important nowadays.” The trend towards lightweight construction is being driven forward by the electric vehicle industry, for example. INSPIRING YOUNG TALENT WITH MODERN MACHINE TOOLS In prototype manufacturing, PWS supports its customers in the early stages of devel- opment. The team is constantly faced with new challenges when machining innovative components with maximum quality as well as economically, prior to series production. Daniel Jud thinks that his team and the pro- duction area are well prepared for this: “On one hand, we benefit from the many years of know-how of our specialists and on the other from our high-performance manufacturing technology.” » It was clear from the beginning that we needed full automation in order to ensure that we had reliable series production. We have found exactly the right partner for this in DMG MORI. Daniel Jud, Managing Partner (right) Steffen Metz, Head of Purchasing and Materials Management at PWS Presswerk Struthütten GmbH 110 TECHNOLOGY EXCELLENCE After its establishment 85 years ago, PWS Presswerk Struthütten GmbH from Neun- kirchen quickly developed into a Full Service supplier in the areas of forming, joining and cutting. As a partner in both develop- ment and series production, the company and its 200 skilled staff supply customers in demanding industries – including the automotive, commercial vehicle and heating sectors. PWS started machining in 2022 after receiving an order for the production of floor components for the batteries of hybrid vehicles. The highly automated, pre- cision production of these components takes place in a total of four NHX 8000 machines, which DMG MORI has connected via a MATRIS system. The productive auto- mation includes the handling of the panels

GX – GREEN TRANSFORMATION: GREEN TECH Each NHX 8000 has a pallet changer with one fixture per pallet, each of which is equipped with a panel at both sides. Two floor panels are manufactured in a single machining process. The modern machines in the factory are also attractive for young talent and trainees. “We are fortunate to continue receiving unso- licited applications which allow us to fulfill our personnel requirements.” DMG MORI: Flexible manufacturing solution with standard machinery One of the new machines has led to PWS expanding its technology portfolio to include innovative machining. “We produced a proto- type of a floor component for the battery for a large automobile manufacturer and ultimately received the order to manufac- ture the series,” remembers Steffen Metz, Head of Purchasing and Materials Manage- ment at PWS. “We were looking for a suit- able manufacturing solution for this.” Our core business of punching did not technically meet the requirement and processing in a gantry machine was too inflexible for us. “In DMG MORI, we have found a partner who can reliably supply equipment to produce the components to the required quality on standard machines, which has been verified by test machining in Wernau and now also in series production, of course.” The choice was quickly made to machine the part on an NHX 8000. Its work area provides sufficient room for the 652 × 980 mm components and, if necessary, the horizontal machining center will easily be able to be used for other jobs in the future. The series production of the floor components involves up to 6,000 components per week. In order to be able to provide this capacity, PWS has purchased four NHX 8000 ma- chines. Each has a pallet changer with one fixture per pallet, each of which is equipped MATRIS: INDIVIDUAL AUTO- MATION SOLUTION FOR AUTONOMOUS OPERATION with a floor component at both sides. Two floor components are manufactured in one machining process. The decisive reason for selecting DMG MORI as a partner in this project was the automation expertise of the machine tool manufacturer.
