Together with our partner SOS Elektronik, WMS Noebauer could limit the on-site installation time in Argentina to just 17 days. This was possible because both SOS Elektronik and WMS Noebauer collaborated intensively and extensively with the customer concerning the necessary engineering activities. Thus, the complete Control Cabinet was assembled and tested in Europe. All motors and systems were only packaged for transport following an intensive 48 hour continuous testing run. As part of the on-site commissioning all cables, compressed air lines, lubrication lines and some hydraulic lines were replaced. As found necessary, some mechanical parts were also exchanged.
Customer Satisfaction
Many parts of the machine were improved, making it perfectly fit to the work-pieces to be used by the customer. This leads to a significant optimization of the workflows during operation.
To achieve this, the X-axis of the machine was equipped with a direct drive system, a completely new central lubrication system was installed and the compressed air system was also modernized. At the request of the customer, the Walter-BG was fitted with three magnetic clamping plates, the A-axis was converted to a worm screw operation, and a work-piece spindle support for high speeds was installed. The three grinding spindles running at 8,000/12,000 and 20,000 rev / min. were optimized for all the customer’s foreseen grinding operations.
