1 EROWA MTS The EROWA MTS modular workholding system. Reduce set-up time! System solutions from one single source

2 EROWA MTS The flexible zero point palletizing system for production. Vertical Machining Centers Horizontal Machining Centers Flexible Quick Easy to use Accurate Indexing head and turning centers Coordinate measuring machines 2

3 Why MTS? Comparing set-up time with and without EROWA Machine down time in minutes without EROWA MTS with EROWA MTS Time to change vises, three jaw chucks, special fixtures, grid plates etc Set-up cycles per shift and machine without EROWA MTS 30 min. with EROWA MTS about 2 min.! Reduce set-up time! Productive time of the machine is greatly increased. Set up parts outside the machine, while the machine is making chips. Comparing set-up costs with and without EROWA Based on: 200 working days per year at $ per hour! Pre-defined zero point and alignment! No more need to align fixtures and vises on the machine.! Standardized interface! All pallets and fixtures fit all machines.! Continue to use existing fixtures! Simply equip them with MTS pullstuds and integrate them into the MTS chucking system on your machine.! Express jobs become easy to accommodate! Due to the high repeatable positioning accuracy of the MTS system, fixed positions can be precisely maintained. This permits you to squeeze an express job between programmed work without the loss of time for realignment or set up. Set-up costs in US $ 30,000 25,000 20,000 15,000 10,000 5,000 6, , ,000 1,200 24,000 1,600 30,000 2, without EROWA MTS This difference is your profit! with EROWA MTS Set-up cycles per shift and machine! 5 sided machining in one set up! When utilizing an MTS pallet, the parts are accessible from five sides. This saves set up time and reduces production cycles. Quality is made easy. 3
