Control 2009 in Stuttgart / Germany, hall 3, stand 3504
(23.02.2009)On a floor space of 50 m2, we will put on display our capability in production measurement technology. Here, the climax in terms of engineering and visual effect will be a robot cell that will set chess pieces like no other. Come and enjoy a pleasant surprize!


AC Vertex 3
(09.12.2008)Since December 9th, 2008, OPW has owned two new wire EDM machines, one an Agie Vertex 2F and the other a 3F. This will enable us to achieve surface finishes of up to Ra = 0.05 µm. Fine wire technology for wires up to 0.03 mm in association with more axes will open up new possibilities for us. This plus an air-conditioned room with temperature fluctuations of no more than 0.5 K means we are looking forward to what is coming.


Extended navigation at opw.de
(01.12.2008)The Internet presence opw.de is being extended: in addition to navigating for sectors or businesses, the right hand bar now supports navigation for workpieces or products.
CAM milling program in use since March, 2008
(01.03.2008)As of March 2008, programs can be created at two five-axis milling machines using a CAM system. This will initially be done for components that have originated from our in-house design department. These 3D models will be loaded, and “graphically edited“. Benefits include reduced setting-up times and feasibility of surfaces arranged in space.
