Usando y utilizando los recursos responsablemente, protegiendo el medio ambiente y manteniendo las emisiones de CO2 tan bajas como sea posible - MAPAL siempre ha estado comprometido con esto. Por lo tanto, el concepto de sostenibilidad juega un papel importante en cada producto y división de la compañía.
La clave para una fabricación eficiente y sostenible Las herramientas combinadas pueden contribuir decisivamente a la fabricación sostenible. Al combinar diferentes pasos de mecanizado en una sola herramienta, se pueden reducir significativamente los cambios de herramienta y las distancias de recorrido innecesarias. Esto reduce el tiempo de funcionamiento de la máquina y permite un ahorro importante de energía. Además, este enfoque ofrece la ventaja de que se requiere mucho menos material en comparación con las herramientas separadas.
Mecanizado ecológico minimizando el uso de lubricante refrigerante La tecnología de lubricación minimizada representa un enfoque ecológicamente responsable del mecanizado. El uso mínimo de lubricantes de refrigeración no solamente reduce el consumo de recursos, sino también la necesidad de bombas de alta presión que consumen mucha energía. Este ahorro repercute positivamente en el balance de CO2. Además, la tecnología reduce los residuos generados por el lubricante refrigerante contaminado, lo que minimiza los costos de eliminación y reciclaje. MAPAL ofrece una amplia gama de herramientas compatibles con lubricación minimizada que protegen el medio ambiente y aseguran un lugar de trabajo más limpio.
Modularity for resource-efficient manufacturing Replaceable head systems and indexable inserts make a significant contribution to environmental sustainability and resource efficiency in the manufacturing industry. Instead of replacing entire tools, only the heads have to be replaced or the indexable insert turned and/or flipped. This saves materials and energy and reduces waste as well as the environmental impact. Modularity also facilitates flexible adaptation to various machining tasks, which increases operational efficiency. In short, replaceable head systems and indexable inserts provide a sustainable solution that fulfils both ecological and economical requirements.
Sustainable thanks to longevity The reconditioning of cutting tools – such as PCD tools, solid carbide tools, and tools with indexable inserts or ISO elements – unlocks enormous potential for sustainability in the manufacturing industry. Tools can be brought back to their former glory through regrinding, restoring guide pads, exchanging inserts or recoating, etc. Reconditioning not only increases tool life considerably, it also effectively prevents important resources from being wasted. It represents an efficient solution that saves resources and optimally combines ecological and economic considerations.
Redefining energy efficiency and workplace safety When it comes to sustainability and efficiency, the UNIQ hydraulic chuck is more than just an alternative to the traditional shrink chuck. One of the main advantages are the significant energy savings, as energy-intensive shrinking processes are avoided. By harnessing a purely mechanical approach to tool clamping, the hydraulic chuck drastically reduces energy expenditure, which lowers carbon emissions. In addition, as shrinking procedures have been done away with, there is no material fatigue and the chuck tool life is ten times longer.
A further advantage is increased workplace safety: Shrink chucks require a special shrink unit, which poses a high risk of injury. This is no longer required with hydraulic chucks. Users also achieve a longer tool life through the precise control of the clamping force, which means less resources are consumed. In combination with adherence to DIN tool restrictions, the UNIQ hydraulic chuck is the right choice when it comes to sustainability and efficiency.
