The first morning is even not finished and I can tell you, absents miss a lot of interesting clues in Microproduction. The spectrum is quite wide in equipment for microproduction and this morning there were mainly to conferences targeted to Eurotec. In this post, the first one.
About 60 people are reunited in the beautiful venue of Villars-sur-Olon under the MAM flag. Again Micronarc and Mancef have organized a high level event for people interested in today’s and tomorrow’s challenging in manufacturing MEM’s. Let’s have a look on the first presentation that was more targeted for Eurotec’s readers (it doesn’t mean the rest was less interesting, it is actually highly interesting)…and there is more to come.
From concept to high production volume Comax Medtec is building machines to change good ideas into mass production possibilities. Erik Poulsen, Sales and Marketing director explained what the steps to achieve this are:
One of the main troubles met is that often people having a good idea can work well till the prototype… but there are many other constraints to overcome if we want to mass produce at high speed and reliability.
The most important information for me in that presentation was: If the manufacturing strategy is thought from the start, i.e. when designing the product, everything will be simpler and quicker later because all will have been taken into account from the start! (That sounds logical and simple...nevertheless rarely the case).
…more to come, stay tuned.

DMG MORI introduces a second-generation hybrid machine combining additive deposition and multi-axis machining to improve productivity, material flexibility, and process stability in industrial manufacturing. Tool and mold making, aerospace, energy, and general mechanical engineering increasingly require manufacturing systems that combine geometric freedom with high precision and repeatability. In these sectors, additive manufacturing is no longer limited to prototyping but is being (…)
With the introduction of the new UMILL 1000, EMCO is strategically expanding its range of universal machining centres in the 5-axis simultaneous machining sector, thereby creating the ideal bridge between the UMILL 750 and UMILL 1500 models. The new model was developed meet the growing demand for versatile, compact and powerful solutions that combine milling and turning operations in a single machine, opening almost unlimited application possibilities. As a result of the synergy between (…)
At EPHJ 2025, ENOVEAS is unveiling a groundbreaking evolution of its CNC micro-machine, SILEX. Already acclaimed for its compactness, precision, and environmentally responsible design, it now becomes the first Swiss micro-machine developed from HE-ARC technology to be serially industrialized with an integrated FANUC CNC control. A technological breakthrough born from Swiss innovation SILEX is not just another new machine — it marks a disruptive shift in the industrialization of high- (…)
GF Machining Solutions and the LASER S 500 U are setting the course for the future of micromachining with an application using silicon carbide wafer (SiC) that stands apart from conventional wafer machining techniques. Silicon carbide wafer market and trends: To support the global shift towards electrification, silicon carbide (SiC) wafers are increasingly used in powering electronics and radio frequency components. Their widespread use arises from their exceptional thermal conductivity, (…)

Repetition accuracy and long-term stability are fundamental requirements for a tool changer. That is why the machine tool specialist from Burbach relies on the HIWIN GmbH axis systems in the milling machines of the HIGH SPEED EAGLE V5 and V9 series. 4-axis machining, 5-axis machining, shaft machining – the OPS-INGERSOLL milling machines enable numerous variants of multi-axis machining. The Multitool tool magazine is used as an option. "The main focus in a milling machine is not actually (…)
Thanks to the left and optional right spindle, the new CTX 7502000 from DMG MORI enables 6-sided complete machining of workpieces up to 2,040 mm in length. With the CTX 750|2000, DMG MORI is presenting a universal lathe at the Open House Bielefeld that will continue the success of the CTX universal lathes. With its large working area, the world premiere is designed in particular for the production of large components and long shafts. Thanks to left and right spindles and a 170 mm Y-axis (…)
