WÖHLER – Innovations Make it Possible!
Regardless in which sector of the brush industry you are involved in, one thing always prevails – the exceptional level of innovation! Whether a strip brush, roll brush, power brush or twisted brush – the possibilities are just endless. There is no fear of any challenge in constantly looking for new applications and uses. This driving innovative force has contributed to date in the realisation of visions of progress of entire industrial sectors.
The greatest hurdle in the brush industry, as in other industries too, lies in the development of new, innovative products. Growing demands call not only for inventiveness, but also for expertise in turning a good idea into a successful product. Many factors have to be considered in making an item of use or a consumable from a prototype brush: Factors such as automated producibility together with the necessary flexibility. This point must be part of product development from the earliest stage. In WÖHLER, the brush industry has a partner from the outset: One that accompanies and supports with over 80 years of expertise in brushmaking. Just how successful such cooperation can prove can be seen first-hand in the latest machine developments realised by WÖHLER together with brush producers.
New possibilities in strip brush production
Progress does not stand still in the case of proven machinery, like the strip brush machine WÖHLER SBM 92. This is what made the latest update of the WÖHLER SBM 92 possible. The new automatic bundle feeding consists of the bundle cutter WÖHLER BC 760 and bundle feeding WÖHLER BUD 300. Simpler, faster and more reliable were the demands on the further development of the bundle feeding. The result was not only further increased process reliability – bundle lengths of up to 250 mm are now also possible. This opens new opportunities in expanding product portfolios and maximising the potential of the strip brush machine.
Expanding product portfolios – opening new markets
To this end, WÖHLER has turned strip brush production literally upside down. This is exactly what the newly developed, strip brush finishing station WÖHLER FSA 500 makes possible. The hanging processing of the strip brush allows finishing of short fill up to very long, soft fill in considerably higher quality than was ever possible in standard processing of difficult fill materials to date. The finishing station WÖHLER FSA 500 can be readily integrated in an existing production line, or alternatively be operated in stand-alone mode.
Winding and trimming of roll brushes on a single machine
Winding of a strip brush into a roll brush directly inline is well proven with the winder WÖHLER WIBO. Now trimming is also possible directly on the WÖHLER WIBO. This has been made possible by the innovative combination of winder and the trimmer WÖHLER FS 930, specially developed for the brush industry. Even contour trimming can be realised. This possibility saves a great deal of handling costs and makes the production of wound roll brushes even more flexible.
Always the right trimming solution
The combination of winder WÖHLER WIBO and trimmer WÖHLER FS 930 have led the way and show how many possibilities can be found in the modular construction system of WÖHLER. This is how the concept of the roll and disk brush trimming machine WÖHLER TU 900 was developed.
This trimming machine has a quick ROI and allows trimming of large roll brushes up to 1 m diameter, 5 m long and with a weight up to 1.5 t, as well as disc brushes with a diameter of up to 1 m.
WÖHLER offers a whole range of trimming machines – from manual and semi-automatic right up to fully automatic – in the world of brush trimming machines. There is the right solution for almost every requirement. Here again, the modular construction system shows that individual solutions can be developed both quickly and economically.
Process optimisation is generally always possible
An optional change-over magazine, now available as a module for the twist knot brush machine WÖHLER ZVA 320, relieves the operator and ensures an easier process. Optical and acoustic signals help in making daily working life even more efficient.
WÖHLER at Interbrush 2020
When WÖHLER presents itself next year on the Interbrush 2020 in Freiburg, there will be a number of innovative developments. Industry 4.0 will be a big theme. For the first time, Wöhler will also show the “big” machines from the world of street sweeper brush machines. The WÖHLER Team will be there at your service and is already looking forward to fascinating talks and new challenges for solving together. Be sure to plan a visit to WÖHLER at the Interbrush fair.
