Service Contracts and Extended Maintenance: Service contracts ensure regular maintenance and reliability. Extended maintenance is recommended every 2-5 years to address specific needs such as hose and cable replacement, oil changes, and fixture maintenance.
Preventive Maintenance: Techniques like VCS rotary for 5-axis machines and kinematics measurement for HV-series maintain machine accuracy. The BW Smart Manufacturing interface allows real-time condition monitoring and data analysis.
Repair Services: A structured repair process for components like spindles and rotary tables ensures quality standards through diagnosis, repair, and testing.
Repair and Maintenance: On-site repairs use original parts, with a large stock maintained for quick delivery. Logistics include daily express delivery and courier services.
Spare Parts: Customized lists of spare and wear parts are provided, including price and delivery time, to minimize downtimes.
Process Planning and Optimization: Aims to increase productivity, reliability, and quality while reducing costs through analyzing machining concepts, tool engineering, and virtual simulations.
Diagnostic and Trials: On-site diagnostics analyze machine interactions, including vibration measurements and sensor use for process optimization.
Training: Offered in multiple languages, covering operating, programming, and maintenance aspects to enhance machine handling efficiency.
Change and Upgrades: Machines are designed for longevity and adaptability, with upgrades including new functions, partial automation, and integration into higher-level systems.
Relocation: BW manages machine relocation, ensuring compliance with regulations.
Complete Retrofit: Retrofitting extends machine life and efficiency, offering cost-effective alternatives to new purchases, with options for ERP integration and control unit upgrades.
Introduction: A case study on retrofitting a 25-year-old machining center to enhance capabilities and extend service life, focusing on increasing output, improving ergonomics, and achieving energy savings.
Specifications and Procedures: The retrofit involved replacing original units with powerful 3-axis units, installing modern spindles, enlarging the tool magazine, and updating the control system.
Norms and Standards: Compliance with the latest safety standards was ensured by replacing existing safety devices and aligning with Industry 4.0 standards.
Recommendations and Benefits: The retrofit resulted in shorter processing times, improved ergonomics, faster setup, a 33% increase in production capacity, and extended service life by at least 15 years.
Conclusion: The retrofit project successfully enhanced performance and flexibility, demonstrating the value of modernizing existing machinery over purchasing new equipment.
