Zoller Inc.’s 2024 Open House and Technology Days has been scheduled for June 12 and 13, 2024, at the company’s North American headquarters in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The event will highlight customers who have leveraged Zoller technology to optimize their manufacturing processes and boost profits.

On both days, Zoller’s team of specialists will discuss trends, challenges and opportunities facing today’s manufacturers. A key focus, reflected in the event’s theme of “Integrate. Success.,” will be on the importance of connecting every step of the manufacturing process, from CAM to final part, along the journey to digitization.

Topics on the first day include best practices for implementing Industry 4.0 solutions, why tool management is vital for digital manufacturing and how to engage the future workforce through mentoring, apprenticeships and corporate partnerships.

The second day will dive into process improvements in inspection with topics such as parametric programming, a new OPC UA grinding interface, measurement result service, centralizing grinding wheel preparation and management, maintaining balance in grinding operations and Zoller’s Caz virtual measuring machine.

Demos of Zoller technology ranging from the company's line of presetters to advanced automation solutions like the RoboBox cell and CoraLogistic system will be presented throughout the event.

Guest speakers include:

  • Tom Bassett II, owner of ProCam Services LLC in Zeeland, Michigan. Bassett will share how incorporating the Zoller Smile 420 tool presetter into the machine shop’s workflow generated an additional $1 million in sales over two years.
  • Daniel Skwierczynski, manufacturing engineer at ERA Industries, will speak on why partnering with Zoller improved production efficiency for the contract manufacturer in Elk Grove Village, Illinois.

Experts with AMS/Janus Engineering Americas, GKN Aerospace and Powell Tool Supply Inc. will also hold breakout sessions on their collaborations with Zoller.

“At Zoller, everything revolves around the customer,” says Zoller Inc. President Alexander Zoller. “From our product development and sales process to our service model, we prioritize customer experience at every level. Events like our Open House and Technology Days celebrate the success companies achieve with Zoller and showcase how attainable those results are for shops of every size.”
