The latest version of MSR TwinDrive dramatically simplifies the mechanical transmission system on large vertical lathes. As a result, the design of turning tables becomes much easier while improving the precision and making the machine more compact. REDEX has once again produced innovative products and solutions that offer machine builders cutting-edge designs that feature easy use and maintenance.

With its global 3i modernization program, REDEX has transformed its Senonches plant into a state-of-the-art center of gear excellence. As a result, REDEX is now offering aeronautical and motor racing quality gears as a standard in its axis drives to machine tool OEMs.

TCD (Total Cost of Design) and TCM (Total Cost of Manufacturing) are essential factors in maintaining a leading position in high-demand and competitive machine-tool markets worldwide. With one eye on the costs and the other on performance level, most of the machine-tool leaders have switched to the cubic concept, invented and developed by REDEX to enhance axis-drive global solutions.

The German machine builder, heinicke Maschinen- & Metallbau GmbH, is market leader for drilling and trimming machines to process rotor blades for wind power industry. They have chosen REDEX SRP planetary reducers because they offer better stiffness and a superior quality of service, while offering very competitive costs level.

KRPXng is the newest successful range of REDEX rack & pinion drives portfolio, especially designed for machine-tools with moving column or gantry. The cost effective and easy to implement KRPX, is a remarkable example of the close cooperation between REDEX and Machine-tools OEMs leaders.

Corporate Interview

ARTEMA represents 120 companies with a global turnover over 5Md€ and more than 30,000 employees.

During the Wire 2012 exhibition, REDEX will welcome visitors to its booth for a live video broadcast showing the production of flat copper and aluminum wires on rolling mills which are waiting for delivery in its main factory.

The DMG-Portal Type DMU 600P milling machines have been designed to machine large components -up to 40 tons- at very high speed, dynamics and precision. Innovative drive systems are key contributing elements to this five axis system offering high versatility though a single setup. DMG works together with REDEX here. The European specialist in precision drives equips the X-, Y-, and C-axis with a TwinDrive rack and pinion drive system. REDEX precision drives are however also used in other drives axes and in the main milling spindle drive.
