for many years there has
been the option of using a
postprocessor for preparing
data for use by the controller
and transmitting them to the
machine controller by mouse
click.
Data transfer by means of an
RFID chip is just as simple: a
tool identification unit on the
tool presetter and measuring
machine writes the actual data
to the RFID chip, which can then
be scanned automatically by the
machine tool.
User Interface Integrated into
the System Environment
The fastest way from the drawing
to the finished part: The required
tool data are available in every
manufacturing step.

One aspect of the smart
workshop which, due to
concentrating
on
purely
technical options for reducing
setup times, has drifted out
of focus is user friendliness,
which, however, is an important
criterion due to the lack of
skilled personnel and workers of
widely differing age, nationality
and training. This aspect is
of such importance because
systems have to be operated.
The easier a system is operated,
the faster the tool will get to the
machine. ZOLLER equipment
and software solutions can be
operated by anyone, and you
can rely on the result. A clear
operating structure, intelligent
ergonomics, reduction to the
essentials and a high degree
of automation are their
distinguishing
