Solutions to make daily work easier, to improve efficiency, to prevent errors, to increase flexibility and output – HOLZMA will be showcasing many innovations on this theme at LIGNA 2013. New technologies, new processes and a completely revamped product portfolio provide for more efficiency in panel cutting.

More choice, more technology, more freedom

Both craft producers and industrial establishments today often produce in small quantities or even just one piece. They use a wide variety of, often highly sensitive, materials and have to face up to increasing deadline and cost pressure. This calls for modern machinery that can be individually adapted to meet the needs of the company and delivers a fast return on investment.

HOLZMA now provides a new dimension of this freedom. The German engineering company has radically revamped, streamlined and simplified its range of products in the 2, 3 and 4 series. For instance, there are now more optional extras for many of the saw models. That saves costs, simplifies investment decisions and increases flexibility – also for retrofits at a later date.

New solutions for intelligent handling

HOLZMA has conducted in-depth analysis of processes related to cutting operations and offers more and more concepts to reduce inefficient non-productive time. With the interests of its customers in mind, HOLZMA provides for greater efficiency in production in this area too. The latest innovation, a worldwide first, is going to be launched at the LIGNA fair. With this new product, HOLZMA ensures ergonomic destacking:

• Smooth processes

• Minimization of errors

• No bottlenecks at the saw caused by workers

• Better ergonomics

• Flexible use of personnel

HOLZMA Innovation Center in Hall 26

Two other new developments from HOLZMA await visitors of this year's LIGNA fair in Hall 26 – in the Innovation Center of the HOMAG Group. Only this much now: on show will be a long-established technology supplemented by an enhancement which is unique on the market. Furthermore, the Innovation Center will be presenting a solution with completely new approaches in panel sizing technology.

Even more technology, service, software and systems

Further new developments relating to panel sizing round off the HOLZMA highlights at the fair. These range from new ecoPlus technologies for even greater energy savings to optimized extraction solutions, innovations for the in-topic of saw-store combinations and new software products from HOLZMA. For example, new tools and options for the CADmatic machine controller and the new version 9 of the optimization software Cut Rite will be demonstrated. The Systems Engineering team will also be present at the fair, as will the HOLZMA Service team with attractive fair offers.
