Roemheld to introduce new machine vice

Work-holding equipment manufacturer Roemheld is launching a mechanically operated, centric (self-centring) machine vice on stand E54 in hall 4. The new Hilma.UC 125 vice is of modular build and intended for three- to five-axis prismatic machining applications. The design ensures easy tool access to the workpiece from all sides, allowing the use of short tools for high-precision machining in a single set-up.Versatility in operation comes courtesy of a separate vice base and two individual jaws that, upon turning a single handle, travel simultaneously inwards towards the centre to clamp the part and out again to release it.

SW debuts two new machines

Schwäbische Werkzeugmaschinen GmbH (SW) is presenting two new products from stand C04 in hall 12: the two-spindle BA W03-22 CNC machining centre and the BA profile, a new machine concept for machining profiles. Furthermore, SW is showing the BA space3, currently its largest model for machining battery housings, and offering insights into current trends in manufacturing such as friction stir welding and giga-casting.

‘Innovate Manufacturing’ is the theme of this year’s EMO, which also captures the essence of SW’s ‘Smart Manufacturing Solutions’ corporate claim. “For us, innovative and smart manufacturing are two sides of the same coin,” says André Harter, head of marketing and business development at SW. “Both allow us to respond individually and efficiently to our customers’ needs.”
