the situation. For companies with a high
level of tool throughput, an automation
solution like the one described above
sounds almost too good to be true. There
are also solutions for the ever more
ingenious tool geometries – such as

surprised inquiries about how long we
have been manufacturing high-end
inspection equipment,“ grinned Dieter
Müller, Applications Technician at ZOLLER,
“But word has pretty much got around
by now that we do far more than simply
produced presetters. And the positive
reactions to our complete range of tool
management products are confirmation
of the fact that we provide customers
with what they really need.“ Certainly,
this positive feedback also has a lot to
do with the fact that the production
sector is getting a lot more complex –
having a single point of contact for the
tool sector makes life a great deal easier.
Also, because the demands for precision
are rising all the time, and since seam-
less documentation is now expected in
accordance with applicable standards,
demand for solutions associated with
tool inspection are rising constantly too.
“Now, even companies that, even a short
time ago, viewed this area as a ‚burden-
some evil‘ and as an additional cost fac-
tor, are now investing in measuring
Dieter Müller, Applications
Technician for Measurement Tech-
nology at ZOLLER: “We support our
customers in finding a precisely
tailored solution for each set of
individual challenges presented
to us. In this process, customers
benefit from our decades of expe-
rience, and from our insight into
their specific sector. This enables
us to choose solutions from Day
One that they can, at some future
date, expand and adapt to their
changing needs.“
The men who observed the entire mea-
suring process on the ZOLLER stand at
the EMO in Milan in 2015 are amazed.
Actually they came here to look around
for a new presetter for their production
facility. The fact that ZOLLER can also
offer them solutions for tool inspection,
together with suitable software, and can
even offer a fully automated version of
the entire system, comes as news to
them. This surprise is not altogether un-
expected. At the end of the day, over the
last few years, ZOLLER has really done a
great deal in this product spectrum.
“Yes, every now and again, we still get
“With this complete range
of produces for tool manage-
ment we have struck a
resonant chord.“
