ASSOCIATION OF GERMAN LASER USERS
-BLECHBEARBEITUNG- E.V.
The VdLB visited HEDELIUS Maschinenfabrik GmbH in Meppen as part of the members' meeting
This year's general meeting of the Verband deutscher Laseranwender -Blechbearbeitung-e.V. (VdLB) took place on 23 February in Lingen (Ems). Over 80 participants travelled to Emsland for the meeting. The meeting was accompanied by an extensive programme, including a factory tour with a machining demonstration at HEDELIUS Maschinenfabrik GmbH in Meppen. For many participants, it was a good opportunity to gain a comprehensive impression of the North German machine manufacturer. "We are delighted that the VdLB combined its annual conference with a tour of our company. It was a great opportunity for us to introduce our guests to the company and our products," says HEDELIUS Managing Director Dennis Hempelmann.
In the HEDELIUS demonstration centre, members of the German Laser Users Association - Sheet Metal Processing e.V. were able to get an impression of the HEDELIUS machining centres.
In addition to a 45-minute factory tour, an ACURA 85 and a TILTENTA 7-2600 were demonstrated live under chip in the HEDELIUS demonstration centre. The members of the association were also able to get an idea of the other machines from the TILTENTA, ACURA and Forte series on site. Dennis Hempelmann explains: "This gave our guests the opportunity to gain an impression of the wide range of HEDELIUS products. Laser and sheet metal processing companies are increasingly expanding their value chain to include the milling range. Our machines can offer the necessary flexibility for this."

In modern CNC production, no two jobs are the same: Today prismatic 3-axis machining, tomorrow complex 5-axis components and then the machining of shafts, tubes or mouldings. With the FORTE 65 with rotating/swivelling table, HEDELIUS offers a machining centre that adapts quickly and efficiently to changing requirements for maximum productivity and safety.
The GEWO Feinmechanik GmbH & Co. KG relies on the 3-axis machining centre FORTE 85 Single 1620 from HEDELIUS for the production of high-precision components. The decisive factors for the investment were the high machine stability, the large Y travel path and the compact design of the CNC milling machine. In daily use, the FORTE 85 impresses with its precise machining results, high level of user-friendliness and economical production, even with difficult-to-machine materials. GEWO also reports productivity increases of 15 to 20 per cent and emphasises the partnership-based cooperation with HEDELIUS.
With the TILTENTA MILLTURN, HEDELIUS is opening a milling and turning machining centre on the market for the first time that combines both machining steps in one machine, thus enabling a continuous manufacturing process. Instead of having to reclamp workpieces several times or switch between different machines, the entire machining process takes place in one stable clamping, which simplifies processes and reduces sources of error. Find out how the concept works in detail, what possibilities arise in practice and for which applications the MILLTURN is particularly suitable.
