Industry news Polycab’s new centre opened

Ideal-Werk

Stand: 11 D22

Versaweld ® CSR NC jig welding machines from Ideal-Werk are characterised by a wide variety of application options and simple handling. Products made of wire and/or sheet metal are placed into jigs on a rotary table that is served manually. While the products are being manufactured on one side of the table, the operator loads or unloads the other side. This allows optimal utilisation of the machine and minimises downtime. Both sides of the table can be programmed independently of one another. Product changes and new set-ups are possible within a short time thanks to the intuitive form of programming and the use of corresponding templates or jigs. Ideal-Werk www.ideal-werk.com
