Tool data are processed in such a way that, at every step in production, the requisite tool data are being provided – from the planning stage, the creation of a CNC program, the inspection of tools or the transfer of data from presetter to machine in a compatible format for the controllers involved. We have lots of experience with this, and have undertaken some forward-thinking and pioneering work. Indeed, the open-ness of ZOLLER products to all systems involved in the production process has been our hallmark characteristic right from day one".
