Zoller

Challenges

• Support of an integrated tool management by programming an interface between ZOLLER Tool Management Solution and CATIA V5 

Solutions

• User-friendly interface integration in CATIA with three major application situations: data import, export and check-up functionality.
  
  - Data import: transfer of tool data from ZOLLER-TMS to - CATIA and availability for programming
  - Export of the tooling sheet (the output of the programming) to - ZOLLER-TMS
  - Check-up functionality: reconciling the tool data created in CATIA with their counterpart in ZOLLER-TM

• Transfer of technology data into CATIA
• Transfer of real cutting contours and 3D representations from the ZOLLER TMS into CATIA
• Consulting and technological support for implementing topics such as digital twin and Lot Size 1

Benefits

• Better use of potentials through optimally provided data in the context of digitalizing.
• Optimal data exchange in both directions: CATIA V5 - ZOLLER-TMS
• Development partnership for the establishment of integrated and digitally continuous data processes - from programming in the CAD/CAM system to tool preparation, -setting and -measurement, through to tool provision at the machines.
