Klingelnberg networks cylindrical gear grinding machine and precision measuring center at CIMT show in China

At the China International Machine Tool Show (CIMT) in April, Klingelnberg, the specialist in gear and transmission technology, will unveil a range of new products – including a world premiere, the closed loop concept for cylindrical gears. The novel concept will be demonstrated on the VIPER 500 cylindrical gear grinding machine in combination with the P 26 precision measuring center. The theme of this year’s exhibit is the growing digitization of production in the age of Industry 4.0.


CIMT is one of the world’s largest trade shows for machine tools and a meeting place for machine manufacturing companies from around the globe. The show will take place in Beijing from April 17 to 22, 2017. Machine manufacturer Klingelnberg will again be among the exhibitors at CIMT, demonstrating its trade expertise at booth W3-152. The technology leader in the gear-cutting industry is reaffirming its role as a systems supplier with a broad product portfolio, which it will highlight at the show. But the main focus of this year’s exhibit is the closed loop system, which for the first time is now capable of networking a cylindrical gear machine directly with a measuring device. With the closed loop concept, Klingelnberg will be presenting its Chinese customers a unique solution for a fully automated quality loop in cylindrical gear manufacturing that has no equal anywhere in the world.


Focus on digitization in production


Until now, the technology of the closed loop concept with networking of machine tools and measuring machines was reserved for bevel gear machines. The transfer of automated machine correction to cylindrical gears is a market innovation on a global scale, which Klingelnberg will unveil for the first time in Asia at CIMT. Klingelnberg, the only supplier to offer a solution of this type, is thus providing lasting impetus to digitization in 09.2016.
