Levelers for flat and low-stress sheet metal.
MKM stands for "Mansfelder Kupfer und Messing" and is a leading European manufacturer of preliminary and semi-finished products made of copper and copper alloys. MKM primarily manufactures its products using casting, drawing and roller processes.
Problem / challenge:
After the roller manufacturing process, the copper panels are highly uneven.
„We receive sheet metal with almost no internal stress, often without heat treatment. The process is very simple: Level the part once, cut it and sell it."
- Uwe Hirsemann, Production Manager
Solution from ARKU:
With the FlatMaster® 88 and FlatMaster® 180, ARKU provides two high-precision levelers which cover a total thickness spectrum of 2 to 60 mm.
What the customer says:
- "We receive sheet metal with almost no internal stress, often without heat treatment. The process is very simple: Level the part once, cut it and sell it."
- Uwe Hirsemann, Production Manager at MKM - "The FlatMaster® 180 enables us to achieve tolerances which were previously either impossible or required major effort. This enables us to complete orders which we once would have lost."
