Water inside gearboxes – not exactly an ideal situation. Lubrication would be impaired and, sooner or later, defects and failures would occur in the machine. With our ZE-200 screw jacks in stainless steel design and strokes of up to 4000 millimetres, this cannot happen. Our customer, HIRSCH Maschinenbau GmbH, headquartered in Carinthia (Austria), manufactures high-quality, […]

After the extension of our proven and easy-to-use ZIMM product configurator, instead of the previous nine, 15 systems with screw jacks from the ZE, Z and GSZ series can now be implemented intuitively, quickly and flexibly at the click of a mouse. In detail, this means that, depending on the product series, the following sizes

A tolerance of only 50 micrometer to ensure perfect synchronous movements at ambient temperatures between -20 and +80 degrees Celsius – this requirement can be easily met with screw jacks from our ZE series. Regarding the shifting system, our customer required a high-precision shifting mechanism for the simultaneous synchronous shifting of several, partly heavy components.

Manufacturing businesses are increasingly investing in the expansion and introduction of robotic technologies and processes with the aim of more rapid and more cost-effective production. These technologies also offer more efficient consumption of energy and the opportunity to respond more easily to customisation requests from customers. The implementation and development of these technologies often require

After a two-year break, it was a pleasure for us to present our products at Motek – the international trade fair for production and assembly automation. From October 5th to 8th, 2021, we were finally able to welcome visitors again to our brand-new booth in Stuttgart. “For the first time we were represented at a

Electromechanical screw jacks are becoming increasingly relevant in hydraulic steel construction. ZIMM’s transmission technology regulates the opening and closing of sluice and weir gate plates, thus ensuring the controlled drainage of excess water during floods. The components from ZIMM can be used in power plants and for channel regulation as well. They are responsible for

There is a widespread push to replace hydraulic systems with electro-mechanical screw jack systems and for a number of good reasons. The trend has already been under way in Europe for some years and now it is moving to North America. Engineers are being tasked to “design out” hydraulic systems and “design in” screw jack

At the ZIMM screw jack manufacturer, KUKA robots automate a flexible production of 30 different workpiece types – from the blank to the finished component. The Austrian company ZIMM produces premium quality screw jacks – and upgrades also its own production environment. The company has recently commissioned a fully automated, modular production cell – implemented

DieQua Corporation remains diligent in monitoring the spread of the COVID-19 Virus and its’ current and potential impacts to our business. We are working closely with our manufacturing partners to ensure that we continue to provide the highest quality product and service that our customers have come to depend on. Most of us have shifted

“Time is money” – especially in the context of globalisation and growing international competition, this statement is becoming increasingly important in order processing in mechanical engineering. Our product configurator is therefore deliberately aimed at those designers who implement designs with lifting gears and complete jack systems quickly, purposefully and without the necessary programming knowledge. There
