MEBAsolutions

MEBA has been a leading supplier of metal bandsawing machines for many decades, from simple bandsaws for the workshop to complex systems for the steel trade, steel construction or large-scale industry. Current requirements demand a high degree of efficiency and cost-effectiveness in all companies, whether small, medium-sized or large. It is therefore not enough to have a top band saw. It also requires solutions around the saw:

Solution Solution

With the many sawing solutions from MEBA, the company offers systems for automation, material handling, measuring stops, additive manufacturing and much more. Solution IT means intelligent control, a high degree of networking and efficient processes from start to finish. Of course, MEBA does not do this alone, but has strong solution partners in its network. All for the efficiency and success of its customers.

Additive manufacturing is a technology that can be used for a variety of applications, including 3D metal printing.

What is additive manufacturing

MEBA’s additive process makes it possible to separate 3D printed metal components from the base plate easily, quickly and without damage. The 3D components in their respective shapes are printed onto a plate, which in turn is fixed onto the MEBA device. After the sawing process is complete, the jig plate is dismantled and can be used for further prints without much effort. The combination of the MEBA 3D 335 / 510 band saw, the 2-column guided and infinitely variable drive saw frame and the right choice of band saw blades enables fine adjustment of the cutting and feed speed so that even delicate objects can be cut with precision.

Advantages of additive manufacturing

3D manufacturing offers enormous planning and design flexibility for the production of various components. However, a recurring issue was how the delicate components can be separated from the base plate after 3D printing without damaging them. This is possible with additive production. Additive manufacturing with MEBA is very easy and convenient to use, so employees can be trained at short notice. The system is easy to clean and creates a clean, healthy working environment. In many cases, the pressure plate can also be mounted on non-factory sawing machines and thus supports any additive production.

Additive manufacturing examples

The components made of materials such as metal, steel, stainless steel or titanium are extremely stable, functional and durable.

Automation technology, and therefore the automation of processes, has become an integral part of industry. Companies, whether small or large, and especially those with series production, benefit from consistent precision, lower costs, greater speed and flexible staffing levels thanks to automation.

Automation industry, automation production

Automation advantages: Industrial automation has many advantages. It reduces time-consuming routine tasks and frees up employees to focus on more complex, value-adding activities. With these goals in mind, MEBA has implemented numerous solutions for automating production. At the heart of this are the reliable straight-cut, mitre and double mitre bandsaws, which are precisely tailored to different customer requirements. These are transformed into partially or fully automated sawing systems with intelligent, fully networked controls and material handling solutions such as roller conveyors, measuring stops, cross conveyor systems and robot automation. By combining automation and digitalization, MEBA supports companies in optimizing production processes and being successful on the market through high flexibility and efficiency.

Simply put, MEBA measuring stops help to save time, save money and optimize the workflow. Which of the different measuring stops from MEBA is the right one for which user and for which sawing technology depends on the area of application and the individual goals.

Bandsaw metal industry

In principle, the MEBA band saw can be supplied with anything from a simple manual cross-cut fence to a digital all-rounder for series production.

Roller conveyor for saw

Combined with roller conveyors and other material handling systems, every metal band saw becomes a valuable, efficient production aid.

Manual measuring stops

These systems are simple and cost-effective and are suitable for small batches or orders with varying workpiece lengths. Simply screw on. Precise sawing. Achieve high quality.

Semi-automatic measuring stops

These systems enable an even better material flow, which is particularly advantageous for series projects. High quality thanks to improved repeat accuracy and time savings.

Fully automatic measuring stops

Fully automatic measuring stops are ideal for highly automated production environments. They increase productivity. In combination with automation and robots, fully automatic measuring stops can ensure precise and continuous cuts at high speed. This minimizes errors and ensures efficient and economical production.

Material handling is a key factor in increasing the workflow and productivity of metal band saws. By using material handling equipment such as roller conveyors, conveyor systems or stops, workpieces can be precisely positioned and constantly fed to and from the saw. In this way, jobs are carried out in a tool-friendly, material-optimized, production-optimized and cut-optimized manner. Modern material handling systems enable the automation of material handling. This ensures consistent cutting quality and reduces the time required and the need for manual intervention. Errors are minimized. Overall, material handling systems improve the efficiency of the sawing process, reduce labor costs and ensure efficient and economical metal processing.
