ZOLLER Demonstrated Latest Technology at Two-Day Event



ZOLLER Inc. recently hosted its annual ZOLLERFEST in October at its North American Headquarters in Ann Arbor, MI. ZOLLERFEST is a technology days and open house event that combines the celebration of the company's German heritage and its technology in presetting, measuring, inspection, tool management and automation to create a unique manufacturing event. Over 100 guests visited ZOLLER Inc. across the two-day event, coming from a variety of industry segments ranging from aerospace and defense to job shops, with the goal of learning how ZOLLER solutions could help bring success to their manufacturing process.

ZOLLER's Industry 4.0 Technology Center houses 39 machines and solutions, including the two latest additions, the ZOLLER »aralon« and »gemini 2« for crankshaft milling cutter measurement.

These machines are designed to significantly increase measurement accuracy and reduce the time spent measuring crankshaft milling cutters, which can in some cases take hours to measure using other methods. With ZOLLER's machines, a crankshaft milling cutter can be measured in minutes.

There were several keynote presentations at ZOLLERFEST. Georg Maerz, Vice President of ZOLLER Inc., started both days by delivering his presentation "The ZOLLER Experience: Driving Success in Global Manufacturing for Over 70 Years." With the theme of ZOLLERFEST 2019 being "ZOLLER Solutions: Your Key To Success," Jerry Busche, President and CEO of PDQ and Impact CNC, followed up on Maerz's presentation, as he gave a firsthand account of his experiences with ZOLLER and how PDQ and Impact CNC have experienced great success by using ZOLLER solutions.

"I had experience with ZOLLER before and it was amazing when I was using it on the floor," Busche said. "It was an easy decision for me to buy ZOLLER. Everyone knows the ZOLLER name and the world-class product that it is. As customers recognize that you are using ZOLLER to produce your product, they have a confidence level in your company that you will produce a good product."

In addition, ZOLLERFEST featured technical sessions at various stations, discussing subjects ranging from basic tool presetting, to CAM interfaces, to Cost per Part with Tool Analysis.

Anthony Westfall, TMS Technical Support Engineer at ZOLLER Inc., demonstrated ZOLLER's cost per part feature throughout ZOLLERFEST, and presented the technology live.

"Cost per part provides a significant benefit for large-scale production facilities," Westfall said. "Cost per part with tool analysis was well received by our guests."
