Investments at AERZEN

Flexible manufacturing system extended

Almost two years ago, the first section of the flexible manufacturing system Fastems was successfully integrated into our production. The first extension then followed at the end of February 2014.

The new HEC1000 Athletic

Abrand new arrival is the HEC1000, an accurate 5-axis machining centre produced by Messrs. Heckert.This machining centre has been added to the HEC800X5 used up until now. Here, the housing parts of Delta Hybrid will be manufactured in future in one voltage, i.e. in a single work step. The set-up times are approaching zero.As with the HEC800X5, the production sequence of the HEC1000 can be set up by an employee through the master computer of the system Fastems. Tool inspection and the manufacturing process of both machining centres are also managed by the master computer Fastems.

In order to guarantee trouble-free integration of the new machining centre, some of the components had to be adjusted to AERZEN’s special requirements. Therefore, a completely modified machine table is now used. The travel distance of the Y-axis was increased. The transfer table from machine to operating unit Fastems is a special development produced by Messrs. Heckert.

The pallet size of 1,000 x 800 mm is compatible with the pallet size of the HEC800X5. Therefore, colleagues working in production are in a position to process selected housing parts by means of either machine at a time. Besides the new procurement, the old system has also been modified – for example, the racking system has been extended. A third machining centre will be established by the end of 2015.

New service station for Aerzen Polska

The Aerzen subsidiary in Poland, Aerzen Polska, officially inaugurated its new service station at the end of last year. After extensive renovation of its spacious, newly acquired building in Katowice, all Aerzen blowers situated in Poland can now be maintained and repaired there. Three new crane systems with a load capacity of up to 10,000 kilograms provide a better and more extensive scope of service. The service team, under the leadership of Przemyslaw Tomczak, has grown to 29 employees. At the official opening ceremony, Aerzen Polska welcomed about 160 customers and guests, besides the Aerzen management and employees of the headquarters. Aerzen Polska is already planning for further growth: The rental machinery business will be developed. Therefore, an agency of AIR will move in within a short time.

New size Delta Hybrid D 152

The new and successful rotary lobe compressor range Delta Hybrid made by AERZEN has now been extended with the addition of a unit of a new size. Customers can select from an extensive range the optimal unit for their application. Delta Hybrid is a synergy of blower and compressor technology, and offers completely new possibili- ties in overpressure and negative pressure gen- eration of air and neutral gases by combining the technical advantages of both concepts.With 16 sizes in all, the Delta Hybrid units now cover intake volume flows of 110 m3/h to 9,000 m3/h and overpressures up to 1,500 mbar. The new sizes D 152 S and D 152 H are used in the upper volume flow range of from 2,400 to 9,000 m3/h with driving powers of up to 400 kW.

Automatic re-lubrication devices

AERZEN has for many years been offering service contracts in various categories. These contracts are handled up to twice a year by an Aerzen service technician. Packaged units with high annual operating times may require more service calls for the relubrication interval of the electric motors.AERZEN has included automatic re-lubrication devices in the After Sales Service Programme, in order to offer a solution to the users. These systems are driven by electric motors; the dispensers are provided with the necessary power supply by an integrated removable battery which guarantees an operational period of at least 12 months. Cartridges for the dispensers are available in 3 different sizes and various types of lubrication. The devices can be applied at temperatures from 10 °C to +60 °C. Thanks to corresponding programming, the dispensed quantity can be very accurately dosed and adjusted to the requirements of the electric motor. Therefore, an efficient and safe lubrication without downtime is guaranteed. In this way it can be ensured that the system is permanently available.Retro-fitting of new AERZEN machine lubrication devices is also possible for existing standard motors.

AERZEN goes App

Of late, AERZEN has been offering company- designed applications in the famous App stores. These include a unit converter specially for compressors applications, converting important parameters like pressures, temperatures, volume flows and performance data simply and quickly into diverse units. In addition, there are Apps available for the latest products, including Delta Hybrid, Delta Screw and AERZEN Turbo. All Apps are designed for Android as well as for Apple Systems. And best of all: AERZEN Apps are free of charge.

Personnel changes at Aerzen Turbo

Mr. Chungsup Um started work as Managing Director of Aerzen Turbo on 2nd December 2013, succeeding Rob Lammers. Prior to taking up this role the 44 year-old had worked as a consultant for various other internationalcompanies.
