A secure future: only with innovations like this power chuck can clamping device manufacturers maintain their market position in an economic downturn. Photo: Diebold
At the Forum of Clamping Technology, Berend Denkena, Executive Director of the Institute for Production Engineering and Machine Tools (IFW) in Hanover, will be asking: “Metalworking meets industry 4.0 – Past meets future?” Photo: Deutsche Messe
Focus on megatrends: the smart clamping devices on show at METAV 2020 include lightweight products such as the MANOK manual vice made of carbon. Photo: Hainbuch
Alfred Hillinger, Head of Design at Hainbuch GmbH: “There are plenty of digital transformation aspects waiting to be explored.” Photo: Hainbuch
Authorised signatory Martina Diebold and managing director Hermann Diebold, Helmut Diebold GmbH & Co. Goldring-Werkzeugfabrik: “We’re investing a great deal of effort in Industry 4.0 digitalisation. A foretaste of this will be provided at METAV 2020.” Photo: Nikolaus Fecht

Arndt Fielen, Sales Manager at Zecha: “The best possible surface quality is achieved through the precise and specific analysis of the entire process chain in both your own production facilities and those of your customer.” Photo: Zecha
“The production – including the grinding – of tools at accuracy levels down to the nearest µm requires modern machinery and highly qualified employees,” says Thomas Feile, test engineer at Mapal Dr. Kress KG. Photo: Mapal
Dirk Biermann, head of the Institute of Machining Technology (ISF) at TU Dortmund: “Tools nowadays usually require special microshaping of the cutting edges in order to ensure maximum productivity. This is why it is important to use suitable measuring systems and evaluation strategies for accurate analysis and quantification of the different aspects of the cutting edge micro-shape.” Photo: ISF
