Work-flows streamlined at Walter factory

A new assembly line with streamlined work-flows that result in shorter machine build has been installed by Walter at its Kurim site in the Czech Republic.
The Walter Helitronic Power and Helitronic Mini Power tool grinders (
www.walter-machines.com) are currently being produced on the line, and it is planned that the Helitronic Vision 400L will be added later this year.
The multi-million-euro project, which took just 14 weeks to complete, involved the installation of a 90m-long continuously moving conveyor belt that spans the complete assembly facility and travels directly into the shipping department (once a machine has passed through the 18 assembly stations, it is immediately packed and despatched to the customer).
