Productivity Enablement

Featured Benefits

Precision Boosts Productivity

ZOLLER's ultra-high precision allows for faster feed rates without compromising tool life, resulting in increased productivity.

Offline Measuring and Pre-setting

All measuring and pre-setting activities with ZOLLER take place offline, eliminating the spindle downtime and production loss associated with on-spindle tool measurement.

Extended Tool Life Through Accuracy

With the ZOLLER >>smile<<, tool inspection is fast and easy. Operators can quickly inspect and measure tooling, allowing for more proactive detection of uneven wear. Additionally, the accuracy of a ZOLLER setup extends tool life, reducing the frequency of replacements.

Time and Labor Savings

ZOLLER saves technical and fabrication man-hours by drastically reducing the time required for tool measurement – from 2.5 hours to a few minutes – all conducted off the spindle. ZOLLER also produces higher quality, more accurate results – reducing the need for manual touch-ups and additional labor costs.

ZOLLER + TMS

The TMS (Tool Management System) Solutions Software is an advanced software upgrade for your ZOLLER designed to supercharge your tool maintenance program with real-time, actionable data. Providing in-depth insights and intelligence, the TMS notifies operators when it's time to re-shape or replace tooling and enables them to accurately predict and forecast replacement – removing the guesswork and reactivity.

TMS also allows you to track various tool metrics including tool usage, user information, and machine assignment – equipping you with the insights to optimize workflows and shop operations.
