Achenbach to exhibit at the ALUMINIUM 2018 show as specialist for aluminium rolling and foil slitting technology

The family company Achenbach Buschhütten will present itself at the ALUMINIUM 2018 show as specialist for rolling and foil slitting technology for the production of aluminum flat rolled products at the highest quality level. The strategic approach is to offer ‘everything from one single source’: layout, design, and manufacturing, assembly, commissioning; including product lifecycle management with services and consulting. Mastering the technology in every single detail and continuously developing the machines rank among the success factors of Achenbach.

This integrated approach is continuing with the new cloud-based platform Achenbach OPTILINK® targeted to provide the customers with an instrument for the optimization of the entire flat rolled production process comfortable, flexible and worldwide usable and honoured in the market. 

Technology leaders in aluminum flat rolled production increasingly count on the brand ACHENBACH and its product brands OPTIMILL, OPTIROLL, OPTIPURE, OPTIFOIL, and recently on OPTILINK: Numerous Achenbach OPTIMILL® Foil Rolling Mills all equipped with Achenbach OPTIROLL® Rolling Mill Automation, Achenbach OPTIPURE® Media Systems for air purification, rolling oil filtration and rectification are part of the latest incoming orders especially destinated to China, India and South Korea. In addition, some entire production plants for aluminum foil production designated as Miniplants are on order comprising both, Achenbach OPTIMILL® Foil Rolling Mills and Achenbach OPTIFOIL® Foil Slitting Machines. Last but not least some outstanding foil slitting machines of the brands HeavySlit and JumboSlit for European companies are remarkable. 

More and more production plants are docked to the Achenbach OPTILINK® platform: The necessary data for controlling the whole production process are continuously filed and visualized for the customer: In this context highest IT-security means ‘without risk for the running production’. New OPTILINK applications and analytical tools are presented and explained to interested visitors on the booth. 

Most certainly the Achenbach rolling mill simulator will attract lots of customers to the Achen-bach booth. Other visitors are looking forward to the new 6-high rolling mill technology for specific rolling applications as part of the trendsetting Achenbach OPTIMILL® rolling mill technology. 

In addition 3-D-movement simulations as virtual twins supporting the commissioning of new and modernized machinery are demonstrated. 

Last but not least, sustainable technology and quality leadership require the continuous development of all technology components. For instance, the Achenbach DVC Dynamically Variable Crown backup-roll or the Achenbach UniSpray® adaptive nozzle valve header with BUS connected Achenbach nozzle valves and hoseless rolling oil supply for significantly improved service and diagnosis functionalities will be presented on the Achenbach booth.
