Video Customer Testimonial: Pfanzelt Maschinenbau GmbH Since 1991, Pfanzelt Maschinenbau from the Allgäu region in Germany has been known for its innovative forestry and municipal technology. With a broad product portfolio – including forestry winches, forwarding trailers, forest crawlers, and more – Pfanzelt provide customized solutions for professional and semi-professional users worldwide. The level of in-house production is remarkable: around 180 employees cover a large part of the manufacturing process themselves, combining expertise with a high degree of automation. The best example of the modern, highly automated machinery park is a newly built production hall, commissioned in 2023. Across 3,000 square meters, the company has reorganized goods receiving and dispatch, pre-assembly, storage, and also a part of its machinery equipment. Both the starting point and the final destination of parts in the new hall is a large STOPA tower storage system, standing 18 meters high, with 2,679 storage locations. This storage system also supplies the newly established cutting area, as the storage equipment is integrated with MicroStep’s MSLoad material handling system. The system feeds two MicroStep cutting machines and, in most cases, can also automatically store the processed parts after cutting. Later, at the parts' assembly stage, these parts are automatically retrieved from the storage based on information from MicroStep's advanced production management system CyberFab Manager, and transported to subsequent workplaces in the hall. For cutting, Pfanzelt use MicroStep´s 2D laser cutting machine MSF Pro and a 3D plasma cutting machine MG, both integrated with a single MSLoad automatic loader. While the 2D fiber laser is exclusively designed for sheet metal, the 3D plasma machine can also process pipes, and features additional drilling, tapping, and countersinking technologies. The result is a customized automation project, seamlessly integrating machinery, control systems, and interfaces with the STOPA system for optimal efficiency. read more Customer Testimonial: Binder+Co Binder+Co AG, an Austrian bulk materials processing specialist, acquired a space-saving MicroStep fiber laser machine for innovative projects. The 14 x 3 m large MSF Max C features a movable gantry enclosure, offering great flexibility in production of the company's crushing, screening, wet processing, thermal treatment, sorting, packaging and palletizing solutions. read more GRID Adaptivity August 1, 2024 "GRID Adaptivity" feature optimizes the cutting process by saving machine time for initial height sensing (IHS). It eliminates multiple IHS operations between cutting of particular contours. Instead, it scans the whole necessary area on the material surface by laser scanner prior to cutting to determine the distance from torch for all contours in the cutting plan. read more Boundary Perimeter Check Ever wondered if your loaded NC program fits your plate? The built-in 'Boundary perimeter check' feature lets you verify it easily – with just a click, followed by a visual confirmation. read more MSL Flex – Powerful & cost-effective fiber laser cutter MSL Flex – The powerful laser alternative TEASER read more MSF Pro | Laser bevel cutting with auto-calibration Fiber laser head for bevel cutting up to 45° allows to cut V, A and X bevels as well as complex Y or K bevels efficiently, reliably and with high precision. Powered by MicroStep's patented Auto-Calibration of Tool Geometry (ACTG®) technology, the head delivers accurate bevel cutting with minimum maintenance requirements, including subsequent weld edge preparation via Additional Beveling Process (ABP). read more Oxyfuel bevel cutting Oxyfuel rotator for weld preparation especially on thick metals is well suited for cutting a great range of bevel shapes including internal contours, variable bevels and multiple bevel contours Y, X or K. The bevel head utilizes MicroStep's patented ACTG® technology that ensures long-term beveling accuracy while significantly simplifying setup and maintenance of the head. When used with ABP® technology, oxyfuel rotator has several advantages – cutting additional bevels in thick steels (~ 250 mm) with bevel angles up to 60° without excessive waste material around the parts, smaller heat affected zones. read more Customer Testimonial: Doppelmayr Seilbahnen GmbH Since 2001, the market leaders in cable car construction and MicroStep have maintained a close partnership. In the course of the years, 14 cutting gantries including plasma bevel, oxyfuel, drilling and waterjet marking technologies were delivered to the winter sports transportation specialists headquartered in Wolfurt, Austria. read more Customer Testimonial: Ivens The Belgian tank manufacturer Ivens chose MicroStep again: A new 21 meter long multi-functional plasma cutting and marking machine of the CombiCut series has replaced its predecessor of the same type that worked at Ivens reliably for 15 years. read more FlexiWeld - Handheld Laser Welding Machine FlexiWeld series - a new product line of MicroStep handheld laser welding machines. 3-in-1 welding, cleaning and cutting using the same lightweight handheld gun. Laser welding power: 1 / 1.5 / 2 kW read more MG – Multi-functional CNC cutting, drilling and marking machine MicroStep MG machines are suitable for a variety of applications from straight and bevel cutting with plasma and oxyfuel, pipe & profile cutting, dome cutting, milling, drilling, tapping and countersinking to marking and additional beveling with ABP technology. read more Universal robot welding workplace The universal robotic workplace is suitable for welding of series of repeated products. It features a camera system for process control, auto-monitoring and visual quality control and can easily be re-programmed for different shapes of welded structures. read more mCAM – 3D CAM for parts and assemblies mCAM is MicroStep's cutting-edge 3D programming tool designed for automated 3D cutting of pipes, beams, profiles, domes and plates. mCAM provides a seamless bridge between your CAD designs and MicroStep’s machinery, ensuring that every intricate detail in your designs is translated to your CNC operations. read more MSF Compact – “Plug & produce” fiber laser cutting machine MSF Compact is a powerful yet space-saving fiber laser machine – without compromising any of the dynamic properties of the MSF line. With laser power up to 8 kW, the compact design makes the system ideal for small and middle-sized workshops. read more MSF Pro X – Fiber laser machine with a carbon gantry For straight cutting with a single fiber laser head, a carbon gantry option provides significant advantages: higher traverse speeds and acceleration allow for more efficient cutting of complex contours while the lower weight of gantry also contributes to longer lifetime of components. read more
