We see ourselves as a complete systems supplier for the com-

plete solution of your profile and tube processing applications.

To this end, Metzner has a capable engineering team with long

years of experience in the provision of convincing solutions,

pointing the way to achieving your targets in costing, quality

and production.

As an active partner in many different sectors, we are well familiar with

the high standards you require in cut quality, length precision and exact

repeatability. But that’s not all: we are also the right partner for you to

deal with your applications in material handling, take-off, sorting and

packaging with integrated quality monitoring and automated documen-

tation.

Our comprehensive range of machinery for cut-to-length applications in

rubber and plastics extends from inexpensive universal cutting machines

to fully-automated production systems. On the following pages, we set

out for you the different processes together with the associated features

and benefits.

Ready for Your Materials

With our solutions, we concentrate principally on several material groups

listed on page 4. Depending on the material characteristics, we thus

offer you the optimal production process. You can profit from our wide

experience, gained in many comparable applications!

Three Versions: Red – Green – Blue

As a result of dialogue with end-users and driven by the wishes of our

customers, we have used our extensive range of cutting machine designs

as the basis for the creation of three different equipment lines:

»Red – Green – Blue«.

Each version uses the same basis model with the same high-perfor-

mance mechanical components. The individual equipment levels are

tailored to the requirements of different customer groups as follows:

Red: The base model with solid and robust basic functions, a reduced

specification, a lower-cost control system and a lower – but for many

applications quite adequate – working speed.

Green: Stands for a complete, fully-equipped version, a control system

with more operator-friendly features, higher working speeds, higher

torque capability and integrated conectors for peripheral units.

Blue: Stands for a versatile and powerful version, a feature rich control

system, highest working speeds, maximum torque capability and a

complete set of integrated conectors for peripheral units.

Profiles and Tubes: Flexible without Steel Reinforcement

Flexible profiles, tubes and hoses are generally processed with modular

cutting machines, universal cutting machines, eccentric-drive cutting

machines or fly-knife cutting machines. More information: Page 5

Profiles and Tubes: Flexible with Steel Reinforcement

For materials with steel reinforcement, circular blade cutting machines

are employed. These work with great precision and repeatability, giving

un-beatable product characteristics. More information: Page 13

Profiles and Tubes: Rigid without Steel Reinforcement

Rigid profiles that are processed in-line require a particular cutting

process whereby the cutting tool moves in synchrony with the product

to be cut. More information: Page 16

Profiles and Tubes: Rigid with Steel Reinforcement

For the in-line production of rigid cut profiles, hoses and tubes with steel

reinforcement we offer rapid and precise traveling-head machines to

guarantee outstanding cut quality. More information: Page 16

Plain Section Gaskets

Plain section gaskets have always required a special cutting process:

cutting on mandrels, a circular knife cut or cutting with a thin blade:

three alternatives for an optimal solution. More information: Page 22

Special Materials, Woven Glass Fibre, etc.

Other non-plastics materials (e.g. metal foils or woven glass fibre) can

be cut very well on our machines. Make use of our experience – we can

create such solutions for you.

The basic idea: Cutting machines that fit flexibly and individually with customers’

requirements and are available in the shortest time with practically no development

being necessary.

Many processing and cutting tasks are as varied as the materials themselves. With the MBS-

System it is possible for you to combine more than 130 standard components together to fit

your requirements. Just like building blocks, the appropriate elements are selected and applied.

Elements like the type and number of cutting tools, length of the transport conveyor (from

200mm up to 800mm) and width (from 200mm up to 400mm), control system, feed-in device,

working direction, nature of the transport conveyor surface covering and the support framework:

all these are tailored to the needs and demands of the customer and the materials. Thanks to this

flexibility, there are virtually no limits to meeting and satisfying your requirements.

The use of standard components makes it possible to create the MBS machines very quickly with

very little further development. Modular cutting machines are thus not only matched to proces-

sing requirements but are also extremely economical and efficient. In addition, all MBS machines

are equipped as standard to be fully integrated with peripheral systems such as take-off and feed

mechanisms, throw-off devices and winders, printers and marking units.

Choosing the correct tool is as important for a good cutting result as the choice of

the cutting machine itself. The cutting method, the cutting force and the form of the

knife must all be right for the material and the processing requirements so that they

are matched perfectly to the particular task in hand.

The basic idea: Choose the right machine for your application from eight different cutting techno-

logies or even equip one machine with several tools for various tasks. The MBS range offers you

the possibilities you are looking for: die cut, shear cut, tube cut, draw cut, hot cut and rotation

cut. For applications that demand more than just cutting to length, there are cutting tools with

stamped or cut-out contours or drilling tools. And there’s the option to combine a number of tools

in one machine to carry out more than one function in parallel or sequentially – the MBS range

makes it possible.

As a complete systems supplier, Metzner develops and manufactures all its own tooling, enabling

us to guarantee short delivery times and ensure the appropriate matching of tooling to processing

requirements.

The basic idea: Robust and reliable base models, equipped with the correct cutting

technology (die cut, shear cut, tube cut) and a choice of »Red – Green – Blue« equip-

ment levels.

Metzner universal cutting machines are designed for automatic cut-to-length and cutting of a wide

spectrum of materials. For flexible profiles, tubes, plastic pipe, lace, seals, film, labels, cables, braids

and wires, our universal cutting machines deliver precise results with good cut quality and high

working speeds. The KL-BV has a place on its own in the universal machine category: it is designed

for precise cut-to-length of elastic and pressure-sensitive tubing.

The three equipment levels Red – Green – Blue are differentiated by the following features:

Red: Dependable basic functionality, very attractive price, reduced conveyor speed and compatibili-

ty with peripheral equipment as a stand-alone unit.

Green: Easy-to-use controls, higher working speed, integral connections for peripheral units, PC-

operation and printing.

Blue: Touch-screen operation and Metzner PLC (with CoDeSys programming), highest working

speed, integral connections for peripheral units, PC-operation and printing.

continuous cutting, different machine sizes for materials up to 120mm diameter, knife

lubrication and peripherals interfacing as standard.

The Dynamat machines process elastic materials with precision and high repeatability – from

silicone tubing for medical applications, textile-reinforced hoses to profiles. It makes no difference

whether the material comes from a single extruder or is unwound from a reel.

The customer-orientated »Red – Green – Blue« equipment levels are also offered for the Dynamat

range with the following features:

Red: Only continuous cut, simple controls, very attractive price and combination with peripherals as

stand-alone units.

If a die cut at very high speed is required and the pneumatic

drive has reached its limit, the eccentric-drive cut opens new

possibilities in terms of cutting performance.

The basic idea: With the Metzner ST 25, instead of a pneumatically

driven cutting tool, we use an electrically-driven eccentric mechanism

bearing the cutting tool. In this way, we can achieve ground-breaking

guillotine cutting performance of up to 800 cuts/minute.

A beneficial side effect: the electric drive enables the ST 25 to work

very quietly, making this model the choice for customers in low-noise

environments.

For the eccentric-drive machines, we offer the interesting

»Red – Green – Blue« equipment levels with the following features:

Red: PLC-controls with 2-line display; max. cutting speed 400 cuts/

minute.

Green: Metzner PLC-controls with touch-screen and CoDeSys program-

ming; cutting speed max. 400 cuts/minute.

Blue: Lenze PLC-controls with touch-screen and CoDeSys programming;

cutting speed max. 800 cuts/minute.

The basic idea: The CCM machines are designed specifically to meet the material

requirements of metal-reinforced sealing profiles and tubes as well as sponge rubber

seals. The circular knife provides the correct conditions for penetration and cutting of

rubber and metal and gives extremely good cutting quality by the combination with

other parameters such as optimized material in-feed, knife rotation speed and direc-

tion, knife penetration rate and lubrication.

The freely-programmable controls enable the varying demands of different profile contours and

compounds to be exactly matched, saved in a single working program and called up by the press of

a button. Thanks to the intuitive logical operator guide, a new processing program can be created

in a few minutes. We offer the three equipment levels »Red – Green – Blue« for the CCM machines

with the following features:

Red: Metzner PLC-controls with colour touch-screen and CoDeSys programming and circular knife

penetration with pneumatic linear drive; max. belt conveyor speed 60m/min.

Green: Metzner PLC-controls with colour touch-screen and CoDeSys programming and servo-linear

drive for the circular knife penetration; max. belt conveyor speed 60 m/min.

Blue: Siemens S7 PLC-controls with colour touch-screen and servo-linear drive for the circular knife

penetration; max. belt conveyor speed 120 m/min.

• The second circular knife module is positioned on a servo-linear axis and can thus be programmed to engage in freely-selected positions

• Integral take-off belt with flexible length for taking away cut parts

• Alternatives for dry cut or wet cut available

• Machine can be used in-line and off-line

Metzner CCM 6

The CCM 6 delivers precision in-line cutting of rigid profiles and tubes.

• The machine synchronises automatically with the line speed

• Cuts the material in end-cut quality, exactly and with high repeatabili-ty to the required length

As one of the leading manufacturers of cutting machines, we offer you – alongside path-finding basic functions – seven further possibilities to use a CCM machine to increase your production:

1. Gap detection: The optional gap detection positions the cut exactly in the gap in the metal carrier and thus gives a snag-free cut. This improves the cut and increases the life of the circular knife between sharpenings.

2. Profile clamping: Profile clamping provides an optimal fix of the product during the cut and by using abrasive discs the cut surfaces are further improved to provide optimum conditions for joining the sealing profiles, without the need for any subsequent post-cutting work such as de-spragging.

3. Additional cutting tool: The circular knife cutting machines CCM 4 and CCM 6 are equipped for the use of an additional cutting tool. This makes the Metzner circular cutting machine a real all-rounder that can also be used for materials without steel reinforcement.

4. Automatic scrap cut: For automatic quality control, this option of-fers an independent scrap cut facility for faulty material areas and avoids the processing of parts which fail to meet the required specification.

5. Cutting based on marking: Metzner offers the required solution for cutting exactly at a marked position. A sensor recognises the marked position and directs the cut precisely to a point at a chosen distance from a particular feature of the profile.

6. External production management station: With an additional communication element, the CCM machines send production status information to an external production management station and can, if required, be operated fully remotely.

7. E-Service Module: With the E-Service Module, the Metzner CCM machines receive an unique IP address or access to a mobile radio network. In this way, the facilities of Metzner Service can effectively and economically support you in fault-finding, spare part advice and repair recommendations.

The basic idea: Traveling-head machines for in-line processing of rigid profiles are

often regarded as the »King Discipline« of cutting machine technology. Intensive dia-

logue with leading end-users and the many years of experience of our engineers have

produced a ground-breaking product concept.

Thanks to a servo-linear drive as standard for the working tool carrier, the traveling-head machines

achieve a very long processing time of several seconds for outstanding end-cut quality. At the same

time, a very short cycle time is achieved for the processing of short part lengths at high line speeds.

In addition, there is a servo-linear drive for the circular knife penetration with varying penetration

speeds for different parts of the material section, for example a careful knife entry speed or a knife

exit at lower speed to reduce the formation of sprags.

We also offer a great choice of knife rotation speed range alternatives, from 2,000 - 6,000 rpm or

4,000 -12,000 rpm. In this way, there are no limits to the use of different types of circular knife ty-

pes, including clamp/cut in traveling head operation. For complete in-line processing of rigid plastic

profiles, our traveling-head machines offer a powerful platform that can be adapted to many tasks

by the employment of rapid-change tooling or drilling and milling modules.

Metzner TCM

Wherever the precision in-line processing of rigid materials without steel reinforcement is called for, our TCM machines provide the solution.

• Automatic synchronisation with the line speed

• Flexible platform, which embrace cutting tools, drilling or milling modu-les, according to requirements



Metzner CCM 6

Traveling-head and similarly stationary circular cutting machines for in-line processing of rigid, semi-rigid and flexible profiles and tubes with metal carrier.

• Automatic synchronisation with the line speed

• Outstanding dynamics for the very long and extremely short processing times

• Versatile expansion options to match changing application requirements



The basic idea: With an automatic single-pass cutting machine, tooling and machi-

ne blend into one high-performance system with high output rates and impressive

flexibility.

Sealing profiles for the automobile industry, but also for applications in furniture, thermal insulation

for buildings or in household goods often require complex cutting processes, as these illustrations

show. Process such as drilling and milling can also be integrated in these one-pass machines.

For tasks of this nature, Metzner’s convincing capabilities provide a range of automatic single-pass

guillotines. The common feature of all these machines is the storing of all the processing parameters

and associated machine settings in a single processing recipe. At the start of production, an built-in

barcode scanner reads the data from the production paperwork, activates the saved parameters

and shows the required tooling and material on the operator panel display. The barcode also con-

tains the required quantities and lengths to be produced. Thanks to well thought-out quick-change

systems, the necessary tooling and material changeover is performed rapidly – generally within 30

seconds – to minimise downtime. The integral tool coding system then independently checks to

ensure that the correct tooling is in place.

• Additional automatic changing between different profiles and inde-pendent positioning of the profiles to the processing tools

• For use with flexible profiles, mainly off-line but also for certain in-line applications

• Standard equipment includes PLC controls, barcode activation and program-controlled end sensing unit

The basic idea: For all work processes that cannot be carried out in the extrusion line

or in an automatic pass, off-line converting work stations are employed.

For these applications, Metzner combines its own tool-making capability with its experience in

machine building to create economical and functional work stations for precision end-cutting with

matrix tools and saw units for rigid and flexible profiles.

Depending on the task in hand, single, multiple or interchangeable tools are used. With a special

tooling arrangement, Metzner also offers the flexibility to change from manual operations to

automatic cycle machinery. In this way, our customers are able flexibly to accommodate changing

quantity demands and choose the most economical method of production.

As well as the development and manufacture of tooling, Metzner also undertakes sample produc-

tion for customers and machinery capability proving tests, as well as process start-up and integrati-

on into production in the customer’s factory.

The basic idea: Highest productivity combined with highest precision is the outstan-

ding characteristic offered by automatic Metzner Transfer Type Machines.

Metzner develops and builds automatic transfer type machines for the complex finishing of automo-

tive seals for example at the Glass Run Channel or the Door Weather Strip. In the process, mounted

within a special clamping, the profile is transported automatically to individual cutting stations by a

transfer system. Phase-controlled by a programmable system, the particular cutting is then perfor-

med at the tooling station. After all individual steps are completed, the processed part is dispensed.

The processing within a fixed clamping combined with the precision of a servo-system and

additional positioning sensors guarantees the compliance with continuously tighter manufacturing

tolerances and high repetition precision.

Metzner transfer type machines offer an especially high cost-effectiveness for vehicles produced

between 50.000 and 250.00 units per year.

Automatic component feeding and component take-off with a robot or other handling systems put

unmanned manufacturing within reach.

Steel reinforced, rigid or semi-rigid profiles play an important role in automotive sealing. For example at the windshield seal or the glass run seal. The Metzner Transfer Type Machines are engineered to process metal reinforced profiles from their state right after extrusion, into a state ready for assembly at one go.

The machines need to combine cutting technology for cuts through soft rubber and for cuts through rigid metal in order to achieve the high precision and repeatability required by the automotive industry. They build on high performance saw units and the profound experience Metzner has as one of the leading manufacturer of cutting machines.

Transfer Type Machines for Off-line Notching and Finishing

• Automated end-processing of cut-to-length profiles, flexible or metal reinforced

• Up to 30 individual, complex and custom engineered cutting stations to guarantee high finishing

quality and repeatability

• Individual, simultaneous processing for both ends of the profile

• Smooth but yet antislip mounting on a special slider with active clamping to provide twist-free

material insertion into the cutting stations

• Automatic, sensor based quality control at the end of the processing

• Fast and error free processing

• Very high cost effectivness for parts produced between 50,000 and 250,000 pieces per year.

The basic idea: Sealing systems often require ventilation drillings or location holes.

For this purpose, Metzner drilling units are employed. We deliver the following solu-

tions to match your requirements:

• In-line eccentric-drive drilling station for regular drillings at constant pitch

• In-line traveling-head drilling station for constant or variable pitch drillings

• In-line »Drilling Beam« to drill all holes for a complete profile at different pitches at once

• Off-line for drilling in combination with end cutting

Metzner drilling units are distinguished by drill spindles with very high speeds up to 60,000 rpm.

This gives precision drillings with short cycle times. The drill geometry ensures that the waste

generally falls to the outside. Pneumatically driven drilling spindles have the advantage of lower

investment cost but have higher running costs. Electrically driven drilling spindles cost less to run

but are a more expensive investment.

In addition, Metzner supplies laser drilling systems for in-line operation. Lasers are more expensive

but offer the advantage of processing variable hole pitches during automatic running and can be

employed in changeover to different profiles.

Plain section gaskets are frequently to be found in many objects of daily use. Water

taps, spray cans, infusion bottles or oil filters in motor cars – all these would be unu-

sable without a properly functioning plain section gasket.

Plain section gaskets can only fulfill their purpose when the surfaces are cut completely evenly and

homogenously. At the same time, these gaskets are also a mass-production article that must be

available at a very low unit price. For these reasons, they must be produced on high-performance

machines with high output capacity. Virtually all plain section gaskets have a diameter that is

considerably larger than the length, so that specialised cutting procedures are necessary for defect-

free production. With our impressive experience in this field, we offer you three different cutting

processes:

• Parting-off cut or cutting on support mandrels

• Circular knife cut

• Draw cut or thin blade cut

The feature that these three processes have in common is a precise cut at different cutting rates

and price levels.

cutting plain section gasketsp o w e r f u l p e r f o r m a n c e f o r h i g h q u a n t i t y o u t p u t

The basic idea: Metzner mandrel cutting machines of the SR

range are precision machines for cutting gasket rings from

moulded or extruded tubes. The distinguishing features are the

unique cutting method and the high cut quality.

To produce the plain section gaskets, rubber tubes – already cut to

length – are stretched onto mandrels. Loading and unloading of the

tubes onto the mandrels is done quickly by a special unit and without

any particular skill being required. Then the mandrels are automatically

clamped between rotating centres and the production is started.

A knife carriage travels along the tubes, cutting the rings to the required

length, either with stiletto-type tools or circular knives.

This process fully brings together high output and the highest cut quality.

The use of the most modern servo-technologies makes the SR machines

even more versatile: knife penetration speed and carriage advance are

fully free-programmable – for optimal processing of materials with

different characteristics. The SR range includes two and seven-spindle

machines, so that Metzner can offer you the most economical solution

for different capacity requirements.

For tubes with suitable material properties, the CCM 4 Gasket offers an

excellent possibility to produce gaskets with a circular knife. The circular

knife cut requires no supporting mandrel, it processes endless (conti-

nuous) material and is flexible with regard to different diameters. In

addition, it offers the possibility to cut several tubes in parallel.

For technical reasons, brake pipes can be only be made in fixed lengths of for example

6 metres. For assembly into vehicles, however, lengths of between 70mm and 800mm

are required. With a machinery installation from Metzner, the pipes are cut into the re-

quired tube lengths at lightning speed (1.2 seconds per tube) and with high precision

(± 0.25mm).

But the demands go further: Because the woven reinforcement can contain defects, the machine

has to recognise faults in the material layers that lie below the surface, reliably cut them out and

automatically separate them.

As the defects can appear in random locations, Metzner is presented with the additional task of

evaluating the remaining good product after the defect location and to cut a selection of different

set lengths, in order to minimise the number of reject parts. Subsequently, parts of the same length

are sorted into different storage containers.

Another new feature is the integral energy-saving concept: If there is a pause in the automatic

feeding of the brake pipes of more than 60 seconds, then the machine switches to an energy-saving

standby mode and is immediately ready to produce on receipt of the next part.

converting machinery for brake pipesr a p i d – h i g h - p r e c i s i o n – i n t e l l i g e n t s o f t w a r e c o n c e p t

Working with leading manufacturers in the truck and commercial vehicle sector, Metz-

ner have developed automatic converting lines to process truck brake pipes which

provide enormous benefits to the users.

The tubes, with diameters of between 4mm and 16mm, are drawn by the Metzner machine from a

coil, cut to exactly the right length and printed to the customer’s specification (ink jet or laser prin-

ting, thermal transfer printing or with adhesive labels) and then stacked, bundled or wound. At the

end of a material roll, the machine gives an optical signal and a message on the display. The opera-

tor can then load another material roll to continue the automatic production without interruption.

Depending on the number of pipes per vehicle, a Metzner converting line of this type produces

brake pipes for 50 to 100 vehicles per shift and the machinery is fully integrated into the customer’s

computer-aided manufacturing system. The data sets for the production are transferred from a

central computer to the converting line, which then sends back the necessary status information.

Weight saving for energy conservation is one of the main themes in vehicle design.

Metzner is playing its part in this by the development and supply of converting machi-

nery for pre-preg material used in the manufacture of vehicle components.

The machines designed by Metzner first monitor the quality of the pre-preg material at a speed of

1 metre/second using a camera system. Defective material is cut out and separated. The defect-free

material is cut into the required lengths and arranged according to pre-set plans in numerous layers

and in different positions. Certain vehicle components also require cut-outs and shaping of the pre-

preg materials and subsequently the exact positioning of the cut relative to a material feature.

The machine then performs further quality control functions with automatic documentation and

back-traceability.

As well as high-quality processing machinery, Metzner also offers quick, product-

friendly and economical peripheral equipment to extend your cutting machine into an

automatic processing line.

Thanks to the wide spectrum of integratable systems, you can automate your cutting machine to

suit your particular requirements. From a simple dereeler, right up to fully-automated production,

we can offer an optimal solution to increase your productivity. We divide our peripherals into the

following categories:

• Dereeling and feeding (loop control, dereeler, feed unit)

• Take-off and winding (take-off unit, cable ring coiler)

• Printing and marking (ink jet printer, thermal transfer printer, Brady Wraptor, hot stamp marker)

Loop control systems: In combination with a Metzner prefeeder of the PF series (see above illus-

tration), Metzner loop control systems provide contact-free speed regulation. In off-line operation,

integrated sensors control the speed of the material feeder to match the chosen processing speed

of the cutting machine and in in-line operation, they regulate the speed of the cutting machine to

match the extrusion line speed.

Irrespective of how your material is presented, on a roll or a

coil, as a ring, bundle or spirally wound, we provide an effecti-

ve means of receiving and unrolling it.

Directly after the unwind unit, which generally doesn’t have its own

drive, there is a material feeding device to draw the material from the

unwind unit. Depending on the necessary pulling force and the width of

the material, the following feeding devices are employed:

For product identification and to determine assembly posi-

tioning, profiles, tubes and other products often have to be

printed with text or marked. Due to these varying require-

ments, Metzner offer four different printing systems from lea-

ding manufacturers, which can be combined with all Metzner

machines.

Ink-Jet printers can produce freely programmable text, logos and mar-

kings on the running product without any lost time. Ink-Jet printing is

a comparatively economical process, but the print quality is not as high

as with laser or thermal transfer printing. Text input and configuration

is carried out via the PC-operator panel of the machine or the internal

touch-screen display.

Digitally programmable thermal transfer printers combine first-class

print quality and individual text printing. The printer transfers variable

texts, logos or graphics as well as barcodes in 300 dpi print quality.

With laser printers, freely programmable text, logos and markings can

be transferred onto the tube with no loss of time. The print quality is

excellent, but the price is higher than with ink-jet printers.

Coloured marking bands serve to define assembly location points,

which quickly show the assembly personnel where, for example, the

nylon tubes have to be connected to the bodywork.

After the rubber and plastics processing, precise take-off,

sorting or coiling of the products is a logical step in the quali-

ty assurance of the total process. For this reason, our take-off

and winding units have the task of carefully laying the finished

parts tidily in collecting trays.

We differentiate between take-off units with cross conveyors – also

known as lateral discharge units – and those without cross conveyors.

To increase length precision, Metzner take-off units can be fitted with

an end-sensing function, whereby the cut is made precisely at a point

that is monitored by a sensor. The take-off of the parts is performed,

depending on the material, either by a pusher, a brush device or fully

contact-free with compressed air. Metzner take-offs are available in

lengths of 1m to 5m.

For effective rubber and plastics processing, Metzner offers powerful software solu-

tions that have been proved in practice. All our software packages provide compre-

hensive functionality such as, for example, the supervision and processing of complex

parts lists for materials with different lengths and diameters as well as individual

printing and marking.

Software solutions in local mode control the working process of the machine and all its peripheral

equipment. All the process parameters are collected via an intuitive, logical and easy-to-operate

unit and saved in a database. Tried and tested assistance functions and help menus support the

entering of the data. Data collection takes place independently of the processing machine, which

can continue its work unaffected.

Many companies control their production via company-internal IT networks. In such cases, Metzner

offers full integration into the existing IT network. All production orders are transferred on-line or

in their own data structure to the machine control system for processing. In return the machines

send back information for production control. The operator thus receives a real-time overview of the

current machine condition, the production status and all the completed and remaining processes.

Since 1980, Metzner have been developing cutting machi-

nes and customer-specific solutions for profiles, tubes and

plain-section gaskets. Patented technologies and high quality

standards ensure that you achieve your production targets of

cost, productivity and quality. Our after-sales service gives you

the support to maintain first-class quality production over the

total life of the Metzner machinery.

We view your purchase of a Metzner product as the beginning of a

long-term partnership, whereby for us your productive capacity and the

security of your investment are the foremost considerations. This is true

whether we recommend a standard machine or a customer-specific

solution to suit your requirements.

Documented Pre-Delivery Functional and Application Testing

Before delivering your machine, a fully-documented functional test is

carried out in our factory, together with an application test using your

total life-long satisfactionf o r u s , y o u r b e n e f i t i s f o r e m o s t

material, so that the performance, parameters that are so important

for your production, can be determined and recorded by machine

capability testing.

You are always welcome to witness the demonstration of these results

personally, before your Metzner machine leaves our plant. This quality,

together with the features and characteristics proven for your produc-

tion, gives you the assurance of successful installation and commissio-

ning in your factory and a successful production start-up.

Installation – Commissioning – Training

After delivery, we are available to carry out specialist installation and

commissioning of your machine in your production as well as training

your operating and maintenance personnel. Usually, only a few hours

are required in order to give your employees the necessary knowledge

and confidence in the use of the new machine.

With our after sales service you benefit from our long-term

support to enable you to keep your Metzner machine ope-

rating profitably throughout its whole working life. Apart

from the basic characteristics and performance data of the

machine, there are a number of additional factors that play an

important part in achieving this. So we have put together a

team with a spectrum of service capabilities to give you active

support.

Advice and machine modification to meet new requirements

Not infrequently, the materials to be processed and the tasks to be per-

formed by a Metzner machine in your production change over time. It is

often possible for us optimally to modify the machine to meet such new

requirements by mechanical adjustments, a software update, or addition

of an accessory or further equipment. Our After Sales Service Team can

make recommendations to optimise your material processing and to

modify your existing machinery accordingly.

Training of new operator personnel

The productivity of a cutting machine in your production and the

resulting product quality are often strongly influenced by the operator

personnel and their knowledge of the functions and settings of the

machine. Often, when personnel changes occur, important knowledge

is lost with the result that processing tolerances and machine output

can suffer. A few hours or perhaps a day of new operator training is an

effective step towards maintaining high quality and performance in your

manufacturing.

Service contracts

The constant use of your production machinery inevitably causes wear

of certain parts or makes re-adjustments necessary to compensate for

the wear. With a service contract, we ensure that, at intervals agreed

with you, preventative maintenance is undertaken to avoid unscheduled

interruptions in production. You profit from this by avoiding short-notice

emergency service call-outs.

Spare parts service

For current Metzner machines, we hold stocks of the most frequently

required replacement and wear parts for immediate delivery in our store.

For customer-specific parts and more slow-moving, we start an immedia-

te order for manufacture the parts in initial equipment quality as soon as

your order is received.

Repair Service

To deal with machine breakdowns, Metzner has experienced personnel

ready to make sure that your production machinery is rapidly made

available again. According to your instructions, the repairs to your ma-

chine can be carried out either in our works or locally in your premises.

E-Service

Many Metzner machines have the facility to be fitted with an E-Service

module for remote machine interrogation. The machine either receives

an individual IP address or a connection to the mobile telephone net-

work. In this way, Metzner Service can provide rapid and cost-effective

fault diagnosis, spare parts advice or make repair recommendations.
