The slewing bearings and drives enhance efficiency, safety, and sustainability with BCM for faster wear monitoring, electric drives for sustainability, and Lifinity lubrication for maintenance-free operation.
With expert presentations, live demonstrations and the latest digitalization solutions, the 2023 Liebherr skiving day is once again the focal point when it comes to all things gear skiving.
Liebherr has expanded the range of functions of LHWebPlatform to include an additional tool. The LHReportInfo app visualizes and analyzes the performance of machine tools and generates reports and evaluations from the machine data – a key step toward greater transparency in production.
In bin picking – also known as “random bin picking” – a robot removes unsorted parts from a container and feeds them for further processing. Liebherr-Verzahntechnik GmbH is a pioneer in the industrial application of this sophisticated technology.
Liebherr is expanding its service portfolio and entering the digital future with extended support solutions. This enables customers to save time and money and to increase their system availability by means of faster response times, at the same time as minimizing the ordering and processing effort. Seminars and training courses are now also being offered in an interactive online format.
Liebherr-Verzahntechnik GmbH has refined its inspection software for gears and combined two steps into one: Chamfer measurement is now integrated into gear measurement. Initial default evaluation ranges ensure process reliability and maximum precision of the measurement results. In addition, the simplified data input and improved layout representation of the measuring protocol ensure usability.
“Bin picking” is among the most difficult disciplines in automation. Adjusting the parameters for reliable recognition and gripping of complex objects is demanding and requires expertise. LHRobotics.Vision, a software by Liebherr-Verzahntechnik GmbH from Kempten, now makes bin picking much easier for users through Artificial Intelligence (AI).
In the course of the mobility transition, electric and hybrid drives will gradually replace the traditional combustion engine. The battery is a key element in electrification: More and more manufacturers are starting their own production of battery systems and are looking for suitable solutions to do so.
