Continuously optimising our production processes is part of the corporate philosophy of WECUBEX Systemtechnik GmbH. We are therefore pleased to report on our latest investment: the acquisition of two new grinding booths.
At our headquarters in Herbolzheim in Baden, we work with various materials. Since mid-September, we have had two new grinding booths, one for stainless steel and one for aluminium. The stainless steel booth has three manual grinding stations as well as a semi-automated grinding station. The new aluminium grinding booth (ATEX Zone 22) is smaller and offers a manual work area.
Thanks to the semi-automation in the stainless steel area, we can integrate the grinding processes even more effectively into the overall workflow and optimise our processes. The grinding requirements range from purely functional requirements, such as smoothing weld seams and removing heat tints, to visual requirements for a high-quality appearance.
In addition to the improvements in the production process that are already noticeable, both investments in our machinery and equipment also provide our employees with greater protection. Specifically, this means improved noise protection and reduced noise emissions in the production hall. We have also reduced the dust and fine dust levels in the production hall through the use of modern extraction technology.
Managing Director Christian Graeve is also pleased with the two new grinding booths: “The repositioning and optimisation of the workstations has resulted in better integration of grinding work into the value creation process. This has enabled us to optimise our process times and fulfil our customers’ high quality requirements even more efficiently.”
He adds: “It is important that we provide our employees with the highest possible level of health protection. And this includes investing in increasingly environmentally friendly equipment.”
