Mansfelder Kupfer Messing GmbH, Germany

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.

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."
  - Stefan Quandt, Head of Marketing & Public Relations MKM
