Bystronic: Best choice.
Cutting | Bending | Automation

The laser cutting and bending specialist Bystronic supports start-ups and thus secures itself for the future. Industrial companies traditionally develop innovations on their own. In the future, however, more openness will be required in order to quickly adopt new technologies and implement them in reality.

Digitalization has long become commonplace, also in the sheet metal processing sector. In the German trade magazine “Blechnet” and also on “blechnet.com”, four system suppliers explain what is already possible today, what is important when introducing digital process chains, and what benefits this offers users. Alberto Martínez, Head of CC Software Services, was able to demonstrate that Bystronic is one of the leaders in this field.

Product innovations from Bystronic: Within the framework of regional Competence Days and the “Euroblech Digital Innovation Summit” online event, Bystronic presented its latest products and solutions for the fields of laser cutting, bending, automation, and software. Among other things, the sheet metal processing specialist demonstrated how manufacturing environments can be intelligently networked to achieve even higher efficiency.

This online event will take place from October 27 to 30. Bystronic will present its vision of the Smart Factory and take a look at the current situation in China. We will also unveil our latest products in the fields of laser cutting, sheet metal bending, and the associated software solutions. You can take part free of charge.

Nowadays, digital solutions and agile processes are success factors – also in the sheet metal processing industry. Thanks to its own high level of digital maturity, Bystronic is able to apply its targeted consulting services to rapidly advance the digital transformation of its customers towards the smart factory. In the “Swiss Export Journal”, Norbert Seo explains how this is being achieved in the ASEAN region.

Thanks to its investment in a Bending Cell (consisting of an Xpert Pro press brake combined with a bending robot), the Swiss job shop Stoppani will soon also be able to produce during the night – completely autonomously.

Creaholic has ingenuity in its DNA: In the 1980s, the company’s founders were involved in the invention of the Swatch watch. Today, the innovative minds from Switzerland’s watch metropolis Biel develop new products and services in collaboration with other companies. What are the key factors in product and service development? And is there a formula for the development of innovations? An interview with the co-founder Marcel Aeschlimann.

In response to the corona crisis, many entrepreneurs reacted quickly and promptly reorganized their production processes – among them Tony Haddad from Lebanon. A story about a successful mechanical engineering entrepreneur who wants to give something back to his country – and about a Bystar laser that patiently pushes through night shifts.

Compressed air management, waste heat recovery, and energy-efficient machines – Brand Metallbau has optimized its energy efficiency and thus reduced its power consumption by half. With the nitrogen generator for laser cutting offers Bystronic a solution for in-house production.

In order for the latest super-versatile jet PC-24 of the Pilatus family to take off, over 10,000 different individual parts have to be assembled at the competence center for structure assembly operations. A customized storage system from Bystronic helps to master this logistical challenge in an efficient manner.

The world’s largest car manufacturer is getting ready for the future. Over the next few years, Volkswagen will make a radical transition to e-mobility, and the Volkswagen plant in Zwickau, Germany, will play a key role in this process. With the ID.3 model, the blueprint for the new generation of electric cars is being created here. The bending experts from Bystronic are also on board.
