MAPAL gibt Einblick in Geschäftsjahr, Märkte und Innovationen

Thomas Teuber, Product Manager for Fine Boring & Reaming, then presented the EA Performance System, one of MAPAL’s most important new products for 2026/2027. The system offers a wide range of applications for machining diameters from 10 to 19 mm and contributes to high productivity in series production.

Dr Dirk Sellmer, Senior Director of Research & Development, provided a detailed overview of the innovations and further developments at the AMB in Stuttgart. Following this, live machining demonstrations and an exhibition of the solutions presented offered the opportunity for in-depth discussions with experts from research and development, as well as product and segment management.

In the afternoon, Stephan Köstler, Senior Director of Product & Service Management, discussed the practical implementation of complete turnkey solutions. Using a specific project as an example, he demonstrated how MAPAL implements turnkey solutions step by step – from design through to series production – and successfully transitions comprehensive projects into stable production within a short timeframe.

The day concluded with a presentation by Markus Deininger (MAPAL) and Dr Markus Friedrich (ZOLLER), who demonstrated how the increasing complexity of machining can be managed using data-driven approaches. The focus was on the aim of systematically utilising existing process and tool data and combining it with specific expertise to derive concrete, application-specific cutting parameter recommendations. The joint PRODaaS@Scale project highlights how AI can be used to determine cutting parameters more precisely and stabilise processes more quickly.

The face-to-face discussions with the journalists provided valuable insights and highlighted the importance of open dialogue on the future of manufacturing.
