IMTS 2024: Fischer Spindles Support Large-Format, High-Production Work (Sept. 9-14)
Under the theme of “Technology Leader with Perfect Rotation,” Fischer USA Inc. displays its branded spindles, offers a new service and introduces the expansion of its repair services and exchange programs for non-Fischer spindle brands to the North American market. The company cites 85 years of experience in high-performance machine tool spindle design, in-house manufacturing and repair services.
Fischer USA now offers a complete suite of services to work on non-Fischer spindles most commonly found on high-performance, high-precision machines. Vice President Doug Kranz says Fischer USA specializes in Kessler spindles, found on large-format SW machines, typically used in the automotive market for high-production work. The company is focusing on Makino spindles for several lines of that builder’s machines, specifically MAG3, which are primarily used in aerospace.
“Currently, MAG3 machines are well known to have spindles that only Makino repairs. We have been asked to repair them for several years now and have decided to make a major commitment to this type of work,” says Kranz. “As a result, Fischer has invested in a pool of spindles and we will repair them, stock them and roll out our exchange program for MAG3 users by Q1 2025.”
Finally, Fischer is targeting a repair and exchange program for Voumard multi-spindle, ID high-speed grinding machines.
Fischer will also display its array of branded spindles and head assemblies for milling, drilling and grinding operations.
FISCHER USA will be exhibiting new technology at IMTS 2024 in Chicago, IL from September 9-14, 2024. We will be at the North Building, Level 3, Booth 237470.
