TECHNOLOGY INSIGHTS
We would like to give you an insight behind the scenes at SW. On this page, we regularly publish success stories and specialist articles about our daily work with and for our SW customers. When can we write our joint success story?
Fast, precise, scalable: a product carbon footprint in three months
How can the CO₂ footprint of individual machines be calculated efficiently? SW demonstrates how a scalable, precise, and user-friendly system was developed within just ten weeks using a parametric approach and a modular PCF calculator. This enables quick determination of the CO₂ footprint for a wide range of machine configurations – adding real value for customers, the environment, and compliance with regulations.
Tecomet boosts poly manufacturing with SW’s multi-spindle technology
Multiple part sizes and multiple configurations, high quality requirements with tight tolerances, complex production processes, and high volumes that must be manufactured as quickly and efficiently as possible: poly manufacturing for the orthopedics industry faces several challenges. The Irish expert Tecomet relies on two-spindle machining from Schwäbische Werkzeugmaschinen GmbH (SW), which helps to increase their knee implant production per operator and achieve an overall equipment efficiency increase.
Power Skiving
First provider of power skiving on a multi-spindle machining center. In today's world, innovation is the key to success. With the introduction of power skiving on our multi-spindle machining centers, we are taking gear cutting technology to a new level. Higher productivity, lower costs, sustainable production! Find out more about this technology and its efficiency.
Increasing the efficiency of friction stir welded components
Friction stir welding, also known as friction stir welding (FSW), enables metal parts to be firmly joined without melting by heating and plastic deformation using a rotating tool. The integration of this process in SW series is possible in principle and offers efficiency gains through the combination with machining operations in machining centers.
Big parts with equally big challenges: Giga castings in CNC machining
The revolution in automotive production: Giga-castings in die casting are changing the production of structural components. Find out why CNC machining of these gigantic components is a complex challenge and what innovative solutions the industry is developing to meet the requirements.
HAL expands new production line with SW equipment
For a new production line for machining cylinder crankcases, HAL Automotive GmbH relies on machines and automation from Schwäbische Werkzeugmaschinen GmbH - and thus realizes the entire project in less than a year.
