Sandvik Coromant collaborates with Siemens for PrimeTurning event

Sandvik Coromant has collaborated with Siemens to run a customer event, demonstrating how its PrimeTurning technology integrates with Siemens NX software. Focusing on the overarching theme of digitalisation in the manufacturing value chain, the event featured presentations from Sandvik Coromant, Siemens and their partner Hitachi Sunway.

The partnership between Sandvik Coromant and Siemens allows NX users to efficiently define PrimeTurning operations through the integration of the PrimeTurning module. PrimeTurning methodology is based on the tool entering the component at the chuck and removing material as it travels towards the end of the component, away from the chuck.

Heading up the event from Sandvik Coromant Indonesia was Tri Yatno, Regional Sales Manager for Indonesia, Aris Kusdarjadi, Turning Specialist for South-East Asia Oceania (SEAO) and Budi Hermawan, Application Specialist for Indonesia. In addition to exploring PrimeTurning, Sandvik Coromant also discussed how to maximise use of its high feed milling tool, the CoroMill® MH20 and its digital tool recommendation solution, the CoroPlus® Tool Guide.

Siemens discussed the NX CAM Software Technology update and how to configure the technology to get the most out of CoroTurn Prime tools, while Hitachi presented a digital machine workshop.

"Sandvik Coromant is committed to its people and dedicated to providing consistent training for our customers," said Tri Yatno, Indonesia Regional Sales Manager at Sandvik Coromant. “The relationship doesn’t end when the customer has purchased a solution from Sandvik Coromant — we ensure consistent aftercare in the form of training and events. At the seminar in Indonesia, Sandvik Coromant, Siemens and Hitachi invited its customers to attend to share ideas, gain insight and learn how to get the most out of their PrimeTurning tools and NX software.

“We value our customers and want them to get as much out of our offering as possible, which is why we hold these events as an opportunity for customers to ask questions, resolve queries and learn how to make the most of PrimeTurning. As a result, over half of attendees to the event booked a further consultation with the sales team.

“The industry is constantly evolving, and with that come changes to software and digital tools. For Sandvik Coromant, it’s crucial to ensure our customers are consistently updated on changes to technology and how this impacts their processes.”
