Kelch GmbH, which specializes in peripherals and services for manufacturers and users of machine tools for cutting processes, is at EMO Hannover 2017 to showcase the latest generation of KENOVA tool presetters, which are now available in combination with modules from TDM Systems. "The new V6 range is ideal for the majority of measuring and presetting tasks. Combining it in a package with the TDM software enables companies to ensure tools are correctly prepared and measured within the specified tolerances," explains Viktor Grauer, Member of the Executive Board and Head of Innovation Management at Kelch.
Two modules from TDM help optimize performance. The TDM Base Module is software for efficiently organizing tool components, complete tools, tool lists and other equipment in a central database. This enables companies to increase the frequency of use for available tools, lower tool costs by up to 25 percent and reduce the time needed to select tool data by up to 50 percent. The TDM Tool Crib Module helps companies organize their tools in storage facilities, in maintenance and on the machine. This module can also help businesses save up to 30 percent on the time needed for tool supply. The KENOVA set line V6 tool presetters are available for different development stages, from a manual to a fully automated version.
