HPMconnect – “High Performance Machining Connect”

With HPMconnect, we offer a scalable and customizable solution for generating data from machines (e.g., saw is running, cutting, cutting air). We aggregate this operational data into a unified platform that not only provides transparency in operations but is also constantly expanding with new features. Our customers are part of a constantly growing community and constantly contribute new ideas for further productivity improvement.

HPMconnect works with modern machines as well as older models through an optional retrofit kit. The solution exclusively uses industrial components from reputable manufacturers and meets all voestalpine IT security standards.

Sensors & Measurement
m-Cut – “Measurement after Cutting”

m-Cut uses a laser triangulation method and determines the dimensions and weight of products placed on a conveyor belt in a stationary configuration. With a measurement tolerance of +/- 0.5mm, m-Cut is an accurate and reliable solution for small steel blocks with a maximum size of 45x25x100cm and a weight of up to 100kg. We also offer various configurations for larger dimensions that can be easily integrated into existing solutions such as Kardex Tower or robotic arms.

In addition to the products already available, we are working on a series of new products and advancements in the areas of Data Science & AI, Industrial Internet of Things, Sensors, and Measurement.
