    New dedicated robotic island: Brother Speedio m140x2 arrives at OMCB

    Our Bovegno facility unit machinery fleet now includes a new Brother rotary table machining centre that performs integrated turning and milling processing.

    In February 2020 we introduced to our production unit in Bovegno a Brother Speedio m140x2 machining centre, one of the first models to be installed in Europe. Unique in its kind and manufactured based on mechatronic precepts, Brother Speedio m140x2 is a multitasking machine equipped with an integrated loading robot that allows to perform turning and milling processes, reducing down times required to load/unload the parts on two different machines.

    Brother Speedio m140x2 is equipped with 4+1 axes and allows to fasten the workpiece with clamps to the rotary table, which is regarded as both axis A and C and turns 360° to perform the turning operations without having to change the work environment. The entire process is further enhanced by a motor spindle with rapid acceleration/deceleration and a compact 22 tool loader that works simultaneously with the positioning of the axes to avoid any waste of time.

    A further step towards Industry 4.0

    By installing the Brother Speedio m140x2 machining centre, our company has taken yet another step forward towards a leaner production procedure, which allows us to maintain the superior level of our quality standards whilst minimising processing times. Moreover, thanks to the integrated loading system, the new Brother Speedio m140x2 machining centre embraces the Industry 4.0 and mechatronic precepts we have adopted within our workshop and allow us to provide machining of workpieces in steel, brass, aluminium and titanium and meet the current market demands.

  • Mechatronics: with automatic production we dedicate more time to quality

    Mechatronics: with automatic production we dedicate more time to quality

    The application of the Mechatronics principles at our facility in Bovegno automates production and allows us to dedicate more time and attention to control activities and quality. Here’s how.

    For some time now, OMCB has been a benchmark enterprise for the application of mechatronics and industry 4.0 to turned components, and it is only thanks to ongoing investments in innovative solutions that we can guarantee increasingly precise components.
    At our company, and the Bovegno plant facility in particular, mechatronics is the cornerstone of our entire work procedure and not simply a way to optimise production, quite the opposite. If, on the one hand, the new machines such as the Jenoptik quality control system, the Tsugami automatic lathe or the Brother Speedio M140x2 robotic multi-turn centre – that will arrive at the beginning of 2020- allow us to reduce the workload of our operators, reduce the risk of error and achieve faster and more precise production; on the other hand, using mechatronics we can requalify our human resources, improve the quality of life at the workplace and shift our resources to quality control.
    The choice we made to invest in mechatronics has allowed us to reduce the number of operators required in the production department and retrain them to take on more strategic roles with specific training courses for toolmakers, programmers and quality control staff. By automating production, we are able to dedicate more attention to the testing and control phases, guaranteeing our customers traceable and more precise components, more punctual deliveries and a service that keeps abreast with the level of technical quality that has allowed us to grow and become the solid and reliable enterprise we are today.

  • TSUGAMI: An automatic multitasking lathe at our Collio facility unit

    TSUGAMI: An automatic multitasking lathe at our Collio facility unit

    Our investments in Industry 4.0 continue with the purchase of the new automatic Tsugami CNC HS38mh 5AX lathe. Discover the details of the new potential capabilities we can offer

    The new multitasking Tsugami HS38mh-5ax sliding head lathe is finally up and running at our facility unit in Collio, one of the first new generation lathes to be installed in Italy, that allows us to perform complex machining at outstanding speeds.
    The Tsugami HS38mh-5ax lathe is equipped with 52 tools and 5 axes, it features automatic rapid loading of workpieces with diameters ranging from 8 to 38 mm and incomparable accuracy. It also has a B-axis head that can be used for milling in addition to turning processing.
    Image
    At our production unit in Collio, the Tsugami Hs38mh-5ax is used to perform all the more complex machining that, until yesterday, obliged us to move the pieces to different machines, whereby as of today we can perform all the work on one single machine, accelerating work times and guaranteeing increasingly higher quality standards. An investment in line with our Industry 4.0 philosophy that allows us to guarantee our customers increasingly more complex turned and milled parts, without foregoing the quality that characterises our entire production process.

  • OMCB: A digital factory

    OMCB: A digital factory

    Two factories with one single digital production control system: OMBC lays the foundations for Industry 4.0

    In the special edition of the Giornale di Brescia dedicated to Industry 4.0, our company was named as one of the companies that has invested most in the technology and digitisation of its factory plants.
    Image
    For several years, in fact, our two production units, the first in Collio and the other in Bovegno, shares the same digital system that enables us to monitor work in progress in real time using a single software system even though the units are 7 km apart. The implementation of a unified management system has allowed us to redesign our work procedures, reducing down times to guarantee the customer a more rapid and accurate service, without sacrificing the quality that distinguishes our processing operations. With this system our production has become even more lean and is able to keep pace with the demands of an increasingly fast-moving and demanding market. Moreover, it also integrates perfectly with the latest generation machinery that we are adding to our existing fleet and allows us to merit the title of Industry 4.0. for all intents and purposes. An important achievement for OMCB and a guarantee for domestic and international enterprises that rely on us continuously for the realisation of customised mechanical parts destined for use in many different industrial sectors.
