Hufschmied Zerspanungssysteme GmbH and CMS S.p.A. have entered a technical partnership. The manufacturer of material- and process-specific cutting tools and the CNC machine tool manufacturer are joining forces to fundamentally improve the machining strategies for advanced materials. The expertise and resources of both companies will be used to develop comprehensive process engineering solutions for current customer needs. The cooperation includes the expansion of existing customer projects, joint trade show appearances and the development of new machining concepts. The advantages of integrated machining solutions will be demonstrated to a broad audience in Europe and beyond at joint workshops, webinars and open house days.
The partnership focuses on the development of advanced machining strategies for high-performance materials such as composite materials and engineering plastics. By combining their joint strengths, Hufschmied and CMS are able to offer integrated solutions that combine machine design, cutting tool technology and optimized machining. With the CMS ARES machine, which has been specially adapted to the specifications of Hufschmied and is available at the Bobingen site, the companies are creating a platform for optimizing machining parameters and strategies. This state-of-the-art machine makes it possible to carry out tests to refine machining strategies and to gain valuable insights for the further development of the digital manufacturing solution. These insights are incorporated not only into the design of tools and machines, but also into customized solutions for customers.
A central aspect of the collaboration is joint commitment to process optimization. The precision tool manufacturer's expertise in analyzing machining processes is leveraged in the partnership to maximize precision, shorten cycle times, extend tool life and develop cost-effective solutions for customers. Due to the comprehensive expertise of both partners, each phase of the value chain-from material preparation to final processing-is seamlessly integrated. The result: higher efficiency, reduced scrap rates and enhanced machining quality.
"This partnership represents a significant advance in machining technology. Combining Hufschmied's state-of-the-art tool technology with CMS' expertise in CNC machines, the collaboration opens up new possibilities for efficiency, quality and sustainability in the machining of advanced materials," said Christel Hufschmied, Managing Director of Hufschmied Zerspanungssysteme GmbH, and Matteo Radicioni, CEO of CMS S.p.A., in a joint statement.
