Metalex is one of the largest trade shows for machine tools and metalworking in Thailand and the entire ASEAN region. A special show with the motto “German High Tech in Metal Working” will be presented at this year’s Metalex in the German pavilion, with heimatec as one of the exhibitors.

At the Metalex 2019, heimatec will be presenting static tools equipped with the common, standard holders and with Capto ^TM-, HSK-, KM and ABS adaptations. Driven tools by heimatec are available for lathing- as well as machining centers and include axial and angular turning- and drilling heads, cross milling-, swivel- or disk milling heads and multi-spindle tools.

heimatec sets new standards in chucking work with the u-tec® universal change system, as it can be universally applied and at lowers costs. heimatec.u-tec® distinguishes itself with its very short, compact construction and high bearing stiffness, and allows for inner coolant feed up to 120 bar.

heimatec.Capto™ is another modular, quick change tool system in the heimatec assortment that significantly increases efficiency in setup- and change times. heimatec.Capto™ is highly flexible and offers broad modularity and high availability for the interchangeable inserts on lathes and machining centers.

heimatec.SwissTooling makes a new tool program available especially for longitudinal, automatic turning machines. heimatec is thereby relying on the best possible spindle bearing technology and polished drive components. Moreover, housings and spindles feature the maximum possible stiffness.

For over 30 years, heimatec has been specializing in the development, manufacture and sales of high precision stationary and driven tools for turning machines and machining centers. The entire tool assortment includes approximately 30,000 products. heimatec ranks among the international technology- and quality leaders in precision tools. heimatec, headquartered in Renchen, Germany, has its own subsidiaries and has a worldwide network of trading partners.
