Software

»pilot 4.0« has established itself as a powerful and comprehensive software solution for all ZOLLER setting, measuring, and testing devices. The intuitive, graphical user interface guides users quickly and reliably to precise measurement results. Thanks to »pilot 4.0«, even complex measurement tasks can be completed successfully right from the start. At the same time, the software offers such a wide range of functions that there is a solution for every requirement. It is no coincidence that »pilot« is regarded as the global benchmark for measuring, inspecting, and managing cutting tools.

 

Equipped with a swiveling reflected-light camera, the ZOLLER »smileCheck« and »smartCheck« series are ideal for tool inspection. Tool parameters, geometric data, and cutting edge contours are captured both radially and axially, enabling universal, fast, and easy tool analysis.

 

Developed with and for tool manufacturers, ZOLLER software offers solutions that meet the highest standards. Even complex measurement and inspection tasks are ingeniously simple to perform.

 

Precision across the board – »pilot 4.0« offers innovative solutions even for specialized applications and is continuously refined in-house by ZOLLER, which possesses extensive development capabilities, to meet the demands of new tooling technologies, competently implement customer requirements, and simultaneously make existing processes even simpler and more efficient. Take, for example, the critical preparation of grinding wheels for new orders. ZOLLER offers a consistently perfect solution for short setup and cycle times: from administration, warehousing, and assembly all the way through to measurement and the transfer of measurement data to your grinding machine.

 

Groundbreaking efficiency for your grinding shop

The greatest potential for efficiency lies outside the grinding machine: ZOLLER Solutions are your key to the future—we help you achieve greater success. After all, manufacturing faster and more efficiently leads to greater cost-effectiveness, allowing you to invest in the future. If economic progress is your goal, then ZOLLER is your partner.

Contour Correction for Molding Tools

Contour correction for molding tools – Comparison of the scanned contour with the target contour in DXF format. The »coCon« software inverts the deviations and generates a contour correction, which is transferred to the machine as a new DXF file.

Interfaces

Interfaces – the inspection and measuring system receives a measurement data file from the programming system or the grinding machine and automatically generates the measurement sequence. The measured actual tool data is transferred from the ZOLLER inspection and measuring system to the programming system or the machine control, where the NC program is optimized for series production.
