We would like to con­gra­tu­late Maxi Klaus­nit­zer and Fer­hat Macar on the suc­cessful com­ple­tion of their coope­ra­tive engi­nee­ring trai­ning in our com­pany. Maxi Klaus­nit­zer is now working in the work pre­pa­ra­tion depart­ment (pro­duc­tion plan­ning and con­trol) after finis­hing her final the­sis. »During my trai­ning I gai­ned a very good insight into the various pro­ces­ses and I enjoyed working on my pro­ject tog­e­ther with my super­vi­sors. The topic was the fine con­cep­tion and pilot intro­duc­tion of a tool manage­ment sys­tem, which is to be intro­du­ced in the fore­seeable future«. Fer­hat Macar…

This year, the annual NILES employees」 vol­ley­ball tour­na­ment took place again, which is also finan­ci­ally sup­ported by the com­pany. In the best of wea­ther, there was dili­gently splas­hing, dig­ging and blo­cking. We are plea­sed that the event attracts more and more employees every year and that the cohe­sion among col­le­agues, which is espe­ci­ally important in these times, is fur­ther streng­the­ned. A small sel­ec­tion of pic­tures can be found here: 

Recently, our employees have been able to enjoy a new par­king area. The reason for this is the long-term plan­ned con­s­truc­tion of a tech­no­logy and demons­tra­tion cen­ter. For this pur­pose, the old par­king lot had to make way to create enough space for the future tech­no­logy cen­ter. With the future new buil­ding we are able to pre­sent our latest machine deve­lo­p­ments to our cus­to­mers in the con­text of an in-house exhi­bi­tion. Due to the cur­rent eco­no­mic situa­tion, the exe­cu­tion of this plan­ning of the tech­no­logy cen­ter has been post­po­ned for…

It is a sport that is not yet very well known in Ger­many, alt­hough it looks like nor­mal soc­cer to out­si­ders. We are tal­king about Fut­sal. A jump redu­ced ball, a hall, 4 field play­ers and 1 goa­lie are nee­ded to play this sport. Our col­le­ague Chris­to­pher Wit­tig, 24, mecha­nic, mas­ters this sport with his team the best in Ger­many. He has recently become Ger­man champion.

Two in one – Incre­asing fati­gue strength and redu­cing TIR  of large cranks­hafts in one machine The rede­sign of the Deep Rol­ling and Roll Straigh­tening machine 7625 is now com­ple­ted and maxi­mum cranks­haft length up to 6000mm are now pos­si­ble. Take advan­tage of an effi­ci­ent, simple and eco­no­mical tech­no­logy that has been estab­lished in the auto­mo­tive car sec­tor for many years. Deep Rol­ling of main and pin bea­ring fil­lets increa­ses the fati­gue strength of cranks­hafts up to 200% and impro­ves sur­face hard­ness and rough­ness of the fil­let radii. Deep Rolling…

News from our sis­ter HEGENSCHEIDT from Erkel­enz Rol­ler bea­rings guide shafts and axles, for exam­ple in vehic­les, indus­trial plants or medi­cal tech­no­logy appli­ca­ti­ons. Usually such bea­rings run per­ma­nently under high loads. Mate­rial fati­gue and lubri­ca­tion defect are the­r­e­fore the main cau­ses of com­po­nent fail­ure. High per­for­mance rol­ler bea­rings can be manu­fac­tu­red with cera­mic ele­ments com­bi­ned with bea­ring steel. For the pro­duc­tion of bea­ring rings, the Fraun­ho­fer Insti­tute for Pro­duc­tion Tech­no­logy IPT Aachen suc­cessfully tes­ted hard rol­ling as a resource-saving alter­na­tive to exten­ding the con­ven­tio­nal pro­cess chain tog­e­ther with three project…

etz – Elek­tro­tech­nik & Auto­ma­tion repor­ted on the safety of our machi­nes. You can read the whole article below. Niles-Sim­mons MC series CNC turn-mill machi­ning cen­ters enable eco­no­mical, fle­xi­ble, pre­cise, and user-fri­endly com­plete machi­ning of large, rota­tio­nally sym­me­tri­cal work­pie­ces in one clam­ping. For the N20 MC, N30 MC, and N40 MC machi­ning cen­ters, the risk assess­ment, veri­fi­ca­tion, and docu­men­ta­tion has recently been revi­sed with the sup­port of Wie­land Electric’s safety experts. Machine safety is a mat­ter of trust in two respects. On the one hand, the ope­ra­tor trusts in the…
