Climate change poses major challenges for the industry. On the one hand, it must achieve climate targets, meet regulatory requirements and satisfy the expectations of investors and society. On the other hand, it needs to manufacture economically and save costs in the long term. CO2-reduced production plays a major role in implementing these factors. Decarbonization is therefore an important step towards a sustainable future. Industrial companies are therefore using more and more levers to optimi...

The roots of manufacturing automation go back to the first industrial revolution, when water and steam power found their way into workshops. The second industrial revolution brought the advent of electricity and mass production. In the middle of the last century, machines received their first control systems, followed shortly afterwards by the automatic changing of tools and pallets, which in turn paved the way for flexible production cells and systems. The first robots made their debut in mecha...

Manufacturing is used to change: mechanization in the days of steam power, then electrification and later the introduction of CNC. At the same time, increasingly powerful precision tools and materials enriched the industry. Currently, the focus is on 5-axis machining, process integration and automation. Each of these developments was considered revolutionary at the time but developed more as an evolution. The future project "Industry 4.0" is no different. The vision described back in 2011 is bas...

In the field of horizontal boring, DMG MORI is expanding its portfolio with the powerful and versatile products from DMG MORI Precision Boring.
Horizontal machining always has an advantage when high spindle speeds and feed rates are required. In the case of horizontal drilling in heavy-duty machining, specially designed drilling machines are recommended because they are more powerful and offer a significantly higher torque. DMG MORI Precision Boring Co., Ltd. (formerly KURAKI Co....
