Flexible machining solutions are the key to cost reduction for small to moderate batch sizes. The focus for the VLC is on capacity utilization of production systems. The machining operations must be distributed uniformly over the machines.

Precise time coordination of the individual operations in the sequence plays a crucial role in serial processes. One renowned manufacturer of construction machines attached particular importance to this aspect in replacement procurement of a drilling center for machining ring gears. They opted for a VLC 500 vertical, multifunctional production center from EMAG. The machine was integrated in an existing manufacturing system and covers a broad range of workpiece variants.
