Smart Factory

The path to the SmartFactory:

Innovation from our own development.

In the smart factory, isolated individual solutions are combined to form a holistic production system. EROWA links zero-point clamping systems, pallet and workpiece handling, loading robots, measuring and presetting systems, and digital process control with JMS® 4.0 to form an integrated manufacturing landscape.

Innovation is no coincidence, but part of our system. All core products—from zero-point clamping systems to our robot families to JMS® 4.0 software—are developed in-house. This allows us to keep expertise, quality, and compatibility under one roof. Our development teams in mechanics, electrical engineering, and software work closely together to create solutions that will stand the test of time, not just today but tomorrow as well.

With every product that leaves our factory, we pursue one goal:
to make your production a little smarter, more precise, and more efficient.

Immerse yourself in the interactive EROWA Smart Factory:

The smart factory describes a manufacturing environment in which machines, automation, clamping technology and software work together seamlessly. EROWA creates end-to-end, digitally controlled CNC production that creates transparency, stabilizes processes and reacts flexibly to new requirements.

Planning, controlling and monitoring of the integrated manufacturing process

The EROWA process control system JMS 4.0 connects all data and controls the entire production process. It automates the data flow from ERP and CAD/CAM to the production cells. JMS 4.0 takes charge of the control of the robots as well as the data transfer and control of the connected machines. In short: with EROWA JMS 4.0 you have the entire workflow well in hand before, during and after processing your orders.

Setup parallel to machining for more spindle time

Central set-up of workpieces and tools

Machine tools only generate profit when they produce. Increasing productivity starts with EROWA clamping systems and eliminating machine downtime. Workpieces are set up and palletised outside the machine while it is still producing. The workpiece change on the machine is carried out in seconds, powerfully, µ-accurately and without loss of the zero point.

Large dimensions - heavy workpieces

Multi-machine automation of workpieces or machine tables up to 5 tons

Masterful loading of heavyweights - or simply say "EROWA LoadMaster". The machine design quality of the highest standard in combination with the space-saving storage location with up to four magazine levels is unparalleled. Palletised workpieces or even entire machine tables of up to four metric tons are efficiently loaded, which significantly reduces the chip-to-chip time between jobs. The ergonomic loading station and the scalable process control system ensure optimum operator comfort.

Strong automation up to 500kg

Modular rail solution for multiple machines and different machining methods

The devices of the Robot Dynamic family offer plenty of payload capacity to automate jobs from batch size one efficiently and across several process steps. Workpiece handling of various sizes from zero to 500 kg in 15 seconds? No problem for the Robot Dynamic. That's how fast the gripper change is to reliably transport even the heaviest pallets. The modularity allows the entire system to be expanded at a later date to handle additional machines. Uncompromisingly tailored to the needs of Industry 4.0, the EROWA process control system JMS 4.0 takes care of job management. This ensures that the correct job is produced efficiently at the right time on the appropriate machine.

24/7 workpiece and tool transport

Automated transfers between robotic cells throughout the production area

New perspectives in complete workshop automation with the EROWA JMS 4.0 process control system and shop-floor transport via AGV technology. Workpieces, electrodes and tools are transported from central set-up stations across the entire production area to the manufacturing cells. EROWA assumes the central management of the cross-technology linking. With standardised hardware and the proven JMS 4.0 process control system, this ensures efficient work organisation and cost-optimised production processes across a wide range of manufacturing technologies.

Reference point definition outside the machine

Efficiently determine workpiece zero point and electrode offset data

Zero point determination is an important step in the production of workpieces and electrodes. Often this is done in the machine tool. However, this takes up valuable time during which the machine is not productive. With the help of EROWA PreSetting devices and the workholding systems, this is done outside the machine. The determined offset values are transmitted digitally to the machine: quickly, efficiently and without the risk of typos.

Single or twin machine monoblock automation for EDM

Up to 369 electrodes on two square metres speak for themselves regarding high autonomy in automated EDM. Fully configurable magazines leave nothing to be desired in the use of different pallet sizes, even in the mixed operation of electrodes and workpieces. The JMS 4.0 process control system manages the entire data flow so that the proper workpiece with the corresponding electrodes and offset data, including the NC programme, ends up on the EDM machine.

Maximum efficiency and flexibility across the entire process chain

Modular multi-machine rail solution for different machining methods

When it comes to the automation of complete process chains, the linear solutions of the Robot Dynamic range are uncompromisingly tailored to the requirements of Industry 4.0. This means more autonomy and thus more spindle time across several machines into the late evening or morning hours. Data and job management is handled by the EROWA JMS 4.0 process control system and offers the user an intuitive user interface. The modular concept of the Robot Dynamic covers any needs in order alignment and remains extendable for later expansions.
