From 16 to 21 September 2023, CERATIZIT will present its latest products and innovations in Hall 5 at stand C69. Special focus this year will be on solutions for 'Smart Factory' and sustainability. Besides presenting various products, CERATIZIT will also invite visitors to participate in engaging technical presentations and discussions related to these topics. The future of production is smart, that much is certain. But the ways to the "Smart Factory" are manifold. CERATIZIT has been at the cutting edge of the digital machining future for many years, for example with the monitoring and control system CERAsmart ToolScope. This system permanently records the signals from the cutting machine during the production process, visualises them and provides important information for process control, machine protection and documentation. "If they flow into the right systems, this kind of data can be extremely valuable for the machinist. But only if they are evaluated, processed and made available to the user in this way do they also offer him the corresponding added value. We already meet this challenge very successfully with our CERAsmart Cockpit. However, there is no question of resting on our laurels: rather, we want to continue to broaden the paths in terms of digitalisation and the real smart factory," emphasises Andreas Kordwig, Director Global Product Management at CERATIZIT. Sophisticated automation solutions are further building blocks for the Smart Factory. With the workpiece automation R-C2 CERATIZIT shows the link between pallet automation and robot direct loading. Because with the R-C2 module the workpieces are gripped directly with the vice, which also functions as a clamping device. This makes a separate gripper superfluous, avoids possible damage and saves the user additional set-up work.
