In addition, the company is an expert in factory planning and offers comprehensive support in the planning of new production plants and the optimization of existing plants. KRONES is a world leader in labeling technology.
The KRONES plant in Taicang, China supports customers in the Asia-Pacific region with equipment and services such as replacement and updating. KRONES Machinery (Taicang) Co, Ltd. sees high-quality products as the key to competitiveness and therefore requires a reliable, easy-to-use measuring solution for high-quality, high-performance, efficient and flexible measurements. The LH coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) from WENZEL meet these requirements.
Product quality is crucial for KRONES. To survive in a highly competitive industry, KRONES must take effective quality management measures and constantly improve product quality. The LH-KMGs from WENZEL are equipped with innovative multifunctional probes that enable fast, simple and precise measurement results of various shapes and geometric elements.
At the KRONES plant in Taicang, the LH CMMs from WENZEL are equipped with a tactile probe that checks shape and position tolerances, as well as with the WENZEL SHAPETRACER, a highly flexible 3D line scanner for point cloud acquisition and point cloud data processing. It inspects mold cavities, complex parts and multi-dimensional surfaces. Yi Zhou, engineer at KRONES, praises the high imaging accuracy and fast conversion of the LH series, which ensures exact scanning results and offers significantly higher accuracy compared to competitor products.
Yi Zhou emphasizes the advantages of the WM | PointMaster software, which adapts the scan to the model and delivers fast results. The WENZEL SHAPETRACER, a highly flexible 3D line scanner, delivers high-quality, highly accurate and repeatable results. Blue laser lines and higher resolution are ideal for surfaces with high accuracy requirements. The WENZEL SHAPETRACER offers high flexibility when processing different workpiece colors.
As the KRONES plant in Taicang grew, more and more different types of machines were manufactured and precision components of its own machines were machined. KRONES offers a wide range of spare parts, including weldments, precision machined parts, shafts, gears and tooling parts. The high workload and fast pace place high demands on the efficiency, stability and performance of the production facilities.
Chengbin Jiang, Supervisor at KRONES, is impressed by the customized measurement solutions and excellent service provided by WENZEL . He emphasizes that the upgrade from Metrosoft CM software to WM | Quartis measurement software supports many useful functions such as importing digital models and pre-programming. The LH CMMs have been in use for over ten years and have proven to be extremely stable. Quality control is essential for production, and Mr. Jiang praises the WENZEL customer service team's quick response to inquiries.
The successful cooperation between WENZEL and KRONES has been based on mutual understanding and trust for more than 10 years. Chengbin Jiang is looking forward to further cooperation and deepening the partnership in the areas of technology and many other aspects. He wishes WENZEL continued success in the future.
