An anual Tradition: OPW at the CONTROL 2010
(16.02.2010)For the 24th time the world leader exhibition CONTROL is going to present future orientated quality control solutions from 4th to 7th May 2010. And naturally OPW your partner for trend-setting concepts for measurement production control will be a part of it.
Part of our luggage is our robot supported measuring cell R1 - a system of highest flexibility for precision measurement of geometric characters within the industrial production. We are looking forward to meeting you in Stuttgart - Hall 3, Booth 3504!

Innovation over all Ranges: OPW is expanding their know-how in Rotation Erosion
(14.02.2010)During the past four years OPW has been engaged intensively in sophisticated rotation erosion of medium to smallest parts. Now we are taking a step further. True to our motto "Strengthen the strength" OPW has invested in a miniature spindle which is a novelty on the present market.
Due to this miniature spindle we are able to produce our high/ly precise/precision parts even more accurately and primarily much more effective. To optimize our daily processes we have successfully developed and implemented a particular chipping system. Because of the precise part adjustment we are able to reach tolerances up to 0,001 millimetres at a surface finish of Ra=0,1!

OPW know-how for medical engineering at Agie
(10.03.2009)
Under the title of Oftmals am seidenen Faden - Fertigungsmesstechnik für chirurgische Instrumente und Implantate (Hanging by a thread – production measurement technology for surgical instruments or implants) , Uwe Hildebrandt, the CEO of OPW, will read a paper at AgieCharmilles. Agie Charmilles GmbH has the pleasure to invite you to an Open House Open House on March 25th / 26th / 27th.
This paper delivered by Uwe Hildebrandt specifically addresses users in the field of Medizintechnik medical engineering. In this field, OPW can boast unique know-how in the design and manufacture of gages of extremely high precision and tiny dimensions.

Control 2009 in Stuttgart / Germany, hall 3, stand 3504
(23.02.2009)On a floor space of 50 m2, we will put on display our capability in production measurement technology. Here, the climax in terms of engineering and visual effect will be a robot cell that will set chess pieces like no other. Come and enjoy a pleasant surprize!


AC Vertex 3
(09.12.2008)Since December 9th, 2008, OPW has owned two new wire EDM machines, one an Agie Vertex 2F and the other a 3F. This will enable us to achieve surface finishes of up to Ra = 0.05 µm. Fine wire technology for wires up to 0.03 mm in association with more axes will open up new possibilities for us. This plus an air-conditioned room with temperature fluctuations of no more than 0.5 K means we are looking forward to what is coming.


Extended navigation at opw.de
(01.12.2008)The Internet presence opw.de is being extended: in addition to navigating for sectors or businesses, the right hand bar now supports navigation for workpieces or products.
CAM milling program in use since March, 2008
(01.03.2008)As of March 2008, programs can be created at two five-axis milling machines using a CAM system. This will initially be done for components that have originated from our in-house design department. These 3D models will be loaded, and “graphically edited“. Benefits include reduced setting-up times and feasibility of surfaces arranged in space.
