The venturion series vertical presetting and measuring machine from ZOLLER offers everything from precise tool measurement to smart inspection, shrinking technology, and even wear detection using z.KI.
Whether in contract manufacturing, toolmaking, or series production, the venturion can be configured to meet a variety of requirements. According to the company, it integrates seamlessly into any production environment and can be paired with modules such as smartCheck, reamCheck, redomatic, ace-Spindle, or the micBox. Tools are measured with micrometer-level precision, with length, diameter, step height, and tip position automatically recorded for subsequent processes. The integrated zero-point monitoring protects against tool collisions. The venturion 800 offers clamping ranges of up to 1,600 mm in length, 1,400 mm in diameter, and 3,500N in weight.
With the pilot 4.0 software and features such as graphical tool selection or the automatic measuring sequence, precision becomes intuitive. Operation can be performed via touchscreen, chip, or QR code. Standard measurements are simplified with the elephant function, which enables fast, accurate results without extensive training, the company reported.
The high-precision ace-spindle with quick-change adapters provides power-operated clamping for all common toolholding systems-from HSK to SK, VDI, BMT, and KM-with adapter changes in seconds. This enables increased flexibility, even for future tooling standards.
With the smartCheck module, the venturion becomes a complete solution for optical tool inspection due to a swiveling camera, LED ring light, and high-quality documentation. For turning tools, a center-height camera measures the exact tip height at the push of a button, making it suited for reamers, boring bars, and threading tools. In combination with the redomatic heat-shrinking module, the device becomes a fully integrated solution for measuring as well as shrinking.
ZOLLER offers multiple tool identification technologies, including RFID and QR codes, tailored to a specific budget, machine set-up, and interface requirements. The zidCode 4.0 system allows secure transfer of measurement data without a network connection. With zidCode 4.0, measurement data is encoded directly on the presetting device and scanned into the machine via QR code for a simple, fast, and error-free workflow.
Each venturion is certified according to international standards.
