The clever system combination with BLUM touch probe

The new, intelligent precision spindle system communicates with the BLUM RC66 wireless interface. In conjunction with the BLUM touch probe, the KOMflex enables automatic diameter correction for precision holes in closed-loop operation (machine, measure, correct). This shortens production times and ensures more accurate and cost-effective workpiece machining.

KOMflex can be used by those customers who manufacture batch production where reamers are unsuitable due to positional tolerance or where access is difficult. The field of application also includes those customers in the automotive or aerospace sectors, or mechanical engineering in general.

  • Fully automatic production of precision holes in Closed-Loop Operation
    By using a closed loop, the KOMflex can be operated without any human operators.
  • Ensures the defined quality requirements for the workpiece are met
    Thanks to accurate head movement for micron-precise machining.
  • Significant time savings
    Machine tools no longer need to be stopped to measure the workpiece or manually adjust the precision adjustment head.
  • Low Installation Investment
    With an existing BLUM RC66 wireless interface.

KOMflex precision spindle head: case study

The customer: IMA Schelling Group, a machinery and plant manufacturer

The company has gained a reputation as a pioneer in the development and manufacture of modularised special systems and processing solutions for the wood, metal and plastics industries.

The challenge: finding an optimal way to automate the production of standard items

  • Contestant: KOMflex precision spindle head
  • Customer: Machine manufacturer IMA Schelling
  • Task: Machining of drive chain links

The assignment: Implementing the KOMflex precision spindle head in the production of drive chain links

  • Ensuring process security with machine, program and employees
  • Carrying out production of chain links during late shift with minimum staff (instead of the early shift only as previously)

The result: expectations were exceeded

  • Production of some standard items for throughfeed technology was increased by up to 70 percent.
  • The chain links are now manufactured autonomously.
The KOMflex precision spindle head allowed us to increase the production of some standard items for throughfeed technology by up to 70 percent. As a result, we have not only increased efficiency, but also improved our company's competitiveness.
Dietmar Tiemann, Head of Chain Construction at IMA Schelling
