| Cost-Effective in Every Sense |
| The situation was not a good one at the Honeywell Engine and Systems facility in Greer, South Carolina, which produces turbine engine components for use primarily in high nickel-based aircraft materials. Three creep feed grinders controlled by PLCs with a positioning capability had become prone to failures and crashes. As a result, two of the machines were no longer in use. The integration of a Sinumerik 802D proved a very cost- and production-efficient retrofit solution.

| Standard in the Workshop |
|  For years, Sinumerik and ShopMill have been contributing their share toward ensuring the success of the Endres company of Seligenporten, Germany. This medium-size firm is further expanding, a fact that testifies to the satisfaction of its customers concerning its high-speed, flexible and precise CNC machining in small to medium-size batches. At Endres, small as well as large parts up to 14 meters in length are programmed on all of the machines either from sample parts or directly from drawings, and usually in the workshop.

| Successful Profiling |
|  With its superfinishing technique, Supfina Grieshaber is able to achieve workpiece surfaces of the highest quality. To do so, parts are machined with the help of stones or belts that have been carefully shaped by a stone profiling machine beforehand. This company, located in the Black Forest, fully relies on the fine-tuned team of Sinumerik 802D and Simodrive 611U.

| Siemens at CIMT 2005 |
|  One of the highlights of Siemens presentation at CIMT in Peking is the Sinumerik 802D solution line (sl) together with the new drive platform Sinamics S120. The Siemens booth offers an overview of the comprehensive range of products, solutions and services for users and manufacturers of machine tools.

| Solutions for Powertrain in Gear Production at VW |
|  In a gear production system for Volkswagen Siemens utilizes Solutions for Powertrain-Transline to demonstrate its expertise in solutions as a systems provider in hardware, engineering and support. The concept based on Sinumerik and Simatic products permitted a smooth start-up and allows trouble-free expansions by the gear manufacturer.

|
| Improved Efficiency for Mould and Die |
|  The recent tendencies for machine tools imported to Brazil to incorporate CNCs has made it possible to implement the Sinumerik 802D control for small and medium-sized 3D-mould-and-die machining. Due to the excellent performance in comparison to other competitors and its competitive price, it has turned out to be a great solution for these applications.
