Glen Dimplex New Zealand is part of the Glen Dimplex Group which was founded in 1973 and considered the world’s largest electrical heating business holding significant market positions in the domestic appliance industry worldwide. With an annual turnover of NZ$3.6 Billion, the Group employs over 10,000 people.
As industry 4.0 has become a competitive requirement Glen Dimplex choose to upgrade to LVD Press Brakes and a Phoenix laser cutter to sync with Cadman Jobs and their existing ERP system. The ERP system communicates with CADMAN-SDI, which imports drawing formats and feeds the data back into the ERP system to help calculate costs. ERP then automatically provides an accurate quotation, based on the actual cutting times of the machine.
With CADMAN-JOBS you can run through the status of every order, The delivery date for the piece in both its 2D form and 3D form is, of course, top priority. The production operator can filter data in various ways in order to bundle jobs.
The CADMAN suite has increased returns by:
After cutting, the pieces are moved to the machine table or unloading pallet for sorting. LVD has provided a sorting function for this operation, which is controlled from a tablet, the Touch-i4. The tablet provides information on the various production orders in the nesting, i.e., the number of pieces, the position in the nesting, and the following operation.
Introduction Picking new machine tools can feel a bit like choosing the engine for a race car. The frame, tyres, and paint all matter, but the engine decides how fast and how reliably the car runs. In the same way, the machine tools inside a workshop or production line decide how much work gets out … How To Choose The Right Machine Tools For Your Workshop Or Production Line
Nitrogen generation refers to the process of separating nitrogen from atmospheric air, which naturally contains about 78% nitrogen. For decades, Australian manufacturers relied on traditional supply methods like gas cylinders and bulk liquid deliveries. However, the industrial landscape has shifted dramatically toward on-site nitrogen generation systems. This transformation particularly benefits Australian sheet metal manufacturing companies, … Methods of Generating Nitrogen for Industrial Applications
A press brake stands as one of the most powerful tools in metal fabrication, designed specifically for bending sheet and plate metal into precise shapes and angles. Learning how to use a press brake effectively opens doors to countless fabrication possibilities across automotive, aerospace, construction, and electronics industries. The machine harnesses the natural ductility of … A Practical Guide to Operating a Press Brake
