At Fensterbau Frontale - booth 512 in Hall 3A - the Voilàp Group is highlighting in particular the PVC processing machines from someco and Stürtz. Various new systems from both brands will be shown and demonstrated; including various welding machines and the high-capacity SBZ 625/13 pass-through machine from someco. The machines from elumatec, emmegi, tekna, Keraglas and Mapi will also be presented, but on big screen.
‘One Company’ - this is the mission and strategy of Italy's Voilàp Group with which the emphasis is on bundling the competencies of numerous industrial players, including elumatec, emmegi, tekna, someco, Keraglas, Mapi and Stürtz. Thus, customers benefit from a wider product range and from bundled capabilities in sales and service. “Emmegi and elumatec both have a strong reputation when it comes to high-quality machines for machining profiles in plastic, aluminum and thin-walled steel, as well as logistics solutions, systems for workshop equipment and numerous other complementary products, such as software, digital layouts, robotics, etc.,” Bas Ladestein explains. “The acquisition of the Stürtz Group was an ideal addition to the machine portfolio. Their expertise in PVC processing machines complements the knowledge we have already built up with the someco machines.”
Someco offers a full range of solutions for the processing of PVC profiles: sawing and processing machines, welding and polishing machines, but also includes systems for assembly and logistics.
“In Nuremberg, we will demonstrate, among other things, the SBZ 625/13 high-speed PVC machining center for sawing, drilling and milling all types of window and door profiles and simultaneously for screwing steel reinforcements. In turn, the 1-head CM 1H and the CM 4H are milling machines for contouring PVC profiles at 45° angles. These machines, integrated into the window production process with machines from the Someco SM series, prepare the profiles for the next stage of seamless welding. They can also be used to perform the pre-processing for hybrid profiles (alu/PVC),” Ladestein explains.
“New developments at the booth are the SM H4 PRO FAST and the SM 2LV. With the former, customers get a fully digital horizontal CNC machine for welding PVC profiles. The SM 2LV is an automatic inline welding machine with fixed head for right angles and movable head for angles in the range of 30° to 180°. It is available with a quick-change system so that the same welding pads can be used as with the 4-head SM 4H welding machine. Both systems can be equipped with optional welding blocks for standard and seamless welding (seamless welding), including hybrid, acrylic and coated profiles.”
A number of high-performance machines for PVC machining are also highlighted from Stürtz. For example, the HSM-T-Drive is based on the Counterline Premium welding technology. This system is characterized by a turbo welding process with twenty-seven servos, short set-up times, high flexibility and a quick-change system for welding blocks. The visible surfaces require no further finishing.
“SRS-H-RBS is a 3-axis robotic system for inserting and screwing hardware to the frame. Input and output is automatic with timing belts. The movable head is positioned on the axis at the exact dimensions of the element. This system is equipped with an automatic profile centering and tensioning system as well as a hardware screwdriver with depth release,” Ladestein adds. “Finally, we are also demonstrating a new automation station with a sorting robot and accessory assembly.”
