The tool industry appears confident again 

after a mood of crisis lasting two years 

On 19th September 2011, EMO Hannover, 

the world’s leading trade fair for 

the world of metalworking technology, 

will be opening its gates. For six 

days, the city of Hannover will be the 

center of attraction and meeting place 

for production specialists from across 

the globe. 

Around 2,000 companies from 38 countries 

will be presenting their performance capabilities 

and innovative strength to top-qualified 

specialists at the show. This year‘s EMO 

Hannover has the motto „More than Machine 

Tools“. That applies both to the products and 

to the event as a whole. 

„EMO Hannover 2011 is the most important 

date this year for the precision tool industry,“ 

confirms Dr. Wolfgang Sengebusch, Managing 

Director of the specialist association Precision 

Tools within the German Engineering Federation 

VDMA at the EMO press forum in Varel. He 

added: „Industry is currently in good health, 

but the delight experienced over the economic 

upturn is not completely untarnished.“ 

This is the case because manufacturers of precision 

tools are once again being increasingly 

confronted by exorbitant rises in raw material 

costs on a broad front. A particularly steep rise 

has occurred in the costs for APT, a raw material 

for tungsten carbide: due to artificial shortage 

and high demand, the costs for this material 

have more than doubled within a year 

according to Metal Bulletin. Alloyed steels and 

electric current are also becoming more and 

more expensive and are putting a burden on 

companies at least in the short term. 

Currently and in the medium term, the industry 

is seeking one response to this situation 

in the development of new, innovative solutions. 

As a result, the industry‘s presentation 

at EMO 2011 will be marked by new tool deve-

tember 2011, the metal machining professionals are

lopments for machining lightweight construction 

materials and to improve energy and raw 

material efficiency in production processes. 

Sengebusch: „The orders received during the 

first six months of this year show that the German 

tool manufacturers have been able to 

follow up seamlessly on the successful year 

2010. For the current year, we expect a rise in 

production of 17 percent and we anticipate a 

very lively EMO in Hannover.“

Dear Readers … 

Since the middle of 2009 things have been 

moving upwards again in precision tools. 

With a production plus of 14 percent to 

eight and a half billion euros, the precision 

tool industry has already been able to recover 

from the crisis during the course of last 

year. This trend has also continued during 

the first six months of this year. With around 

35 percent, the manufacturers of cutting 

tools, in particular, achieved a considerable 

upturn, which has persisted during the 

first half of 2011. The German mechanical 

and plant engineering sector, too, has been 

able to record a rise in orders of 23 percent 

during the first half of 2011 according to the 

VDMA. The figures for machine tools recently 

provided by the German Machine Tool 

Builders‘ Association VDW are even higher: 

orders received have more than doubled 

during the first six months over the same 

period last year. 

However, instead of being able to enjoy the 

upturn, we find ourselves again in the midst 

of a cost spiral as regards the raw materials. 

Whether it‘s electricity or steels, there‘s 

only one direction the costs are moving in 

– upwards, with a steeper and steeper gradient. 

The interplay between strongly rising 

demand and artificial scarcity is resulting in 

disproportionately high price increases. Especially 

in the case of tools, the key issue is 

no longer technology, but maximum customer 

benefit in the form of minimum costs 

per part. This can only be achieved by taking 

into account all production aspects. 

This includes advice about the choice of the 

„right“ tool just as much as services in the 

logistics field or the development of individually 

customized complete machining solutions. 

Increasing efficiency is now the 

industry‘s motto. 

An essential basis for that is provided by 

new materials that serve as the foundation 

for electromobility, for instance, and that 

combine high strength and stability with 

low weight. Similar demands are also made 

by the aerospace industry. The materials 

are frequently built up from various diffe-

Welcome to the world of machining! 

Extension of the KROMI business model to an overall supply of production is already available today. 

In effect, it was only a matter of time before 

the customers would extend the profile of 

requirements made on their logistics partner 

KROMI from a Tool Manger to a Supply 

Chain Manager. Individual, customer-specific 

solutions in this direction have already 

existed at an early stage. At the aircraft manufacturer 

Airbus, for example, KTC automatic 

dispensing machines from KROMI were 

deployed to supply final assembly with highgrade 

construction elements and assembly 

tools. At Airbus, in particular, issues like 

outsourcing and single sourcing are generally 

high up on the agenda. 

Behind these endeavors lies the need of industrial 

companies to transfer unproductive 

activities outside their own premises to a 

professional service provider and to conclude 

special framework contracts with such a 

provider about a needs-dependent supply of 

their own production areas. The most recent 

The KROMI Tool Center (KTC) is the central 

element in the tool supply concept and covers 

purchasing, material planning, goods 

reception, storage and goods issue in one 

single unit. It operates without staff intervention, 

yet supplies production needs directly 

where the production takes place. The articles 

and items required are determined 

hand-in-hand with the customer and this 

spectrum is recorded in an individually 

created electronic catalog in the built-in PC 

system. The employees can then identify 

themselves at the console via chip card and 

individual identity code to access the current 

stock. At the push of a button, the required 

item is then issued automatically by the KTC, 

which acts as a consignment warehouse. The 

tools are only booked out and charged when 

they are extracted from the KTC. 

Whereas the KTC is optimally suitable for 

frequently used items owing to its practical

commissioned without problems through the modern logistics solution from KROMI. The potential 

savings in purchasing management are therefore even higher. (Grafik: KROMI)

companies just how quickly high inventory

The Czech Republic was formed on January 1, 

1993 as a succession state of the former 

Czechoslovakia. Just eight years after dissolving 

the Warsaw Pact the Czech Republic became 

a member of the NATO and joined the

population of 5.5 million are living in this 

area. Slovakia has completed the turnaround 

from a command to a market economy 

very successfully. The structural reforms are 

rather advanced and economic stability has 

been achieved. Since the banking sector is 

almost completely in the hands of foreign 

companies investments from the outside 

are growing continuously. The economic 

growth of about 10% per year is about the 

highest in the OECD countries and the second 

largest in the EU. 

Already in 2005 one of the fi rst KROMI subsidiaries 

was opened in Slovakia. Two years 

later KROMI Slovakia s.r.o. was founded as 

a daughter company located in Prievidza. 

From here KROMI Slovakia services a number 

of well known companies which have 

settled in Slovakia with a production site for 

low cost reasons. 

and thus enjoyed a rapid and positive development. 

Nevertheless the largest portion of 

the GDP is generated in the service sector. The 

major part of industry in the Czech Republic 

is made up of producing modern industrial 

equipment installed mainly in Western Europe 

and other highly developed states in the 

world. The automotive industry also plays a 

major role. SKODA – today a daughter company 

of Volkswagen – belongs to the biggest 

corporations of the country and represents a 

fundamental share of the Czech exports. 

Parallel to the foundation of the Slovakian 

daughter company KROMI established its 

own Czech daughter company KROMI CZ s.r.o. 

in 2007. From Liberec in the country´s North 

as well as from Olomouc located in the South

existence and personnel cutbacks. 

The global player Sauer-Danfoss has 

meanwhile arisen out of the 

worldwide economic crash and is 

now stronger and more customeroriented 

than ever. 

Needless to say, the worldwide business 

prospects were not particularly rosy on 

the day in January 2009 when Sven Ruder 

started work as the new President and 

CEO of Sauer-Danfoss. Nevertheless, it 

would only become clear by February just 

how extensive the repercussions of the 

intensifying crisis were on the customers 

around the globe and that this would 

soon impact Sauer-Danfoss as well. The 

company was indeed not the only one to 

be confronted with such challenges, but 

Sven Ruder also saw a chance amidst the 

crisis. Since the merger of Sauer-Sundstrand 

and Danfoss Fluid Power in 2000, 

the company found itself in the role of 

market leader and could proudly point to 

enormous growth. That was exactly why 

Sven Ruder and his leadership team started 

to take a closer look at the evident 

discrepancies between the growth and 

financial performance of the 14 Sauer- 

Danfoss product lines. What emerged 

was a number of marked differences between 

customer needs and the spectrum 

on offer. The customers gave Sauer-Danfoss 

good marks for technical support, 

quality, customer care, product value, 

and application competence. However, 

the feedback from the customers also revealed 

other areas in which the expectations 

of the customers were not being 

met. On the basis of these concrete findings, 

Sven Ruder and his team of managers 

were able to make specific decisions 

in good time about the future of the Sauer-Danfoss 

organization and about a new 

strategy. They did so with great success, 

as the current development of the company 

clearly shows. 

Stronger after the crisis: with over 6,000 employees and a turnover of USD 1.6 billion, Sauer-Danfoss is 

today once again considered the market leader in mobile hydraulics and electrohydraulics. (Photo:

„The subject of strategic purchasing has 

Interview with Dipl.-Ing. Robert Lenzen, Procurement Manager Europe for the 

KROMI newsletter: Mr. Lenzen, your company 

has turbulent times behind it.As a relatively young 

member of staff, what has been your experience 

of the last few years? 

Lenzen: We have indeed had some ups and downs. 

The repercussions of the worldwide crisis have 

also hit us hard here in Neumünster. Incoming 

orders occasionally slumped to a fraction of their 

normal level. There were phases when the 

company‘s future was anything other than 

secure. 

KROMI newsletter: How did the company react to 

that? 

Lenzen: With the takeover of the majority of shares 

in Sauer-Danfoss by Danfoss A/S in 2008, the strategic 

management has also shifted to Denmark to 

a stronger degree. As a result, the decision-making 

processes have initially changed for us here 

in Germany in Neumünster. However, what was 

sometimes seen as an additional obstacle then 

turned into a stroke of luck: in the wake of the economic 

crash, when hardly any bank was willing to 

make funds available for the continued existence 

of a company anymore, Sauer-Danfoss was able to 

continue doing business and get through the crisis 

under its own steam thanks to the injection of 

funds from the new owners. 

KROMI newsletter: So, was it just financial 

strength that has enabled today‘s success? 

Lenzen: No, that is certainly due to a large extent 

to the reorientation of the company under the present 

CEO Sven Ruder, who became chairman of the 

board in January 2009. In my view, he already set 

the right course shortly after taking office. This 

includes the reduction of manufacturing depth, 

the product- and customer-oriented corporate 

structure, and certainly also the fact that the subject 

of purchasing has become a matter for decision 

at the top management level. 

KROMI newsletter: What do you mean by that? 

Lenzen: Our company has done a great deal on its 

own during recent years. During times of crisis it 

then becomes clear that all these different things 

going on have a negative effect on profit and that 

one, of course, slips into the red when operating 

in all these different fields. Consequently, one of

the strategic goals for the future is the outsourcing 

of indirect services and therefore a concomitant 

reduction in the number of suppliers. 

KROMI newsletter: Sauer-Danfoss has worked 

together very intensively in earlier years with KRO- 

MI in the capacity of a tool manager for all the different 

locations. We have often reported about 

that.Then the collaboration ended suddenly – many 

people were surprised. 

Lenzen: I can‘t say a lot about that because I was 

working in a different position in the company at 

that time. Following the move to my new post in 

procurement, however, the subject then became 

one of my responsibilities. I quickly learned that 

the topic of tool supply in manufacturing is a very 

complex one and the procurement manager in offi 

ce at the time the collaboration ended evidently 

didn‘t have the matter under control. The reasons 

are probably many and varied. He fi nally terminated 

the collaboration unilaterally after a few 

months. 

KROMI newsletter: What happened after that? 

Lenzen: I fi rst tried to form an overall picture of the 

fi eld and analyze the situation objectively since I 

had not been involved up until then. Although not 

everyone here has the same opinion on the subject 

of tool management even today, the echo as regards 

KROMI was predominantly positive. I then invited 

current offers from various providers. It 

quickly became clear that it was tool-selling that 

was the prime focus for most providers. KROMI, on 

the other hand, was able to offer a comprehensive 

outsourcing concept that almost completely fi tted 

in with our strategic objectives. 

KROMI newsletter: So, you were mainly interested 

in a complete supply solution? 

Lenzen: Logistics is an important subsection of 

tool management. Nevertheless, we are looking in 

this area for a supplier who is also master of the 

relevant technology and can advise us in a spirit 

of partnership. With the KROMI Engineering Process 

KEP, we regularly subject our processes to 

scrutiny in order to search for further possibilities 

of cutting costs. That is indispensable nowadays 

as part of a continuous improvement process.

KROMI and ZOLLER agree strategic collaboration in the tool management field 

The term tool management is used nowadays for numerous solutions to optimize tooling: they all have 

in common the aim of harnessing the potential for rationalization in the value-added chain of machiningbased 

manufacture. (Photo: ZOLLER) 

Not least since the introduction of NC 

technology, tool-presetting devices are 

part of the standard equipment for every 

production plant. They are primarily deployed 

where frequent tool changes are 

carried out on CNC machines. An adjustment 

tool is particularly sensible for machines 

with high hourly rates that require 

a large number of tools; otherwise, the 

set-up times would increase due to the 

measuring of the tools in the machine 

and the primary processing time would 

be reduced as a result. In order to achieve 

an accuracy of 1/100 mm in the production 

process, the tools must be adjusted 

ten times more precisely. This cannot 

be done without a tool presetter. In 

most cases, tactile measuring probes or 

lasers within the machine are not used 

for more than tool breakage monitoring 

and can only determine the length and 

cross dimensions in the machining center. 

The presetting of the tools themselves 

and monitoring them in terms of cutting-edge 

radius, edge angle, wear, blade 

radial run-out, concentricity etc. is 

only possible within the machine to a limited 

extent and is preferably performed 

on external presetters and measuring devices. 

This measurement can be performed 

either mechanically via scanning 

the cutting-edge contour or by non-con- 

tact optical measurement. The optical 

procedures offer the possibility of magnification 

and are therefore more precise 

as well as being gentler on the material. 

The optimal presetting of the tools not 

only has advantages for precision but also 

achieves an increase in tool lifetime. 

The reason is that, when tools are optimally 

preset, the wear is distributed 

throughout the entire tool and wear does 

not merely occur on one blade or one part 

of the blade. The repetitive and concentricity 

accuracies of preset tools also 

make it possible to exploit the performance 

capacities of the machine tool in 

an optimum way and therefore significantly 

increase the process reliability. 

The precondition for that is a close control 

loop in which the measured adjustment 

values are also transferred into the 

respective NC control. The classic toolpresetting 

control loop therefore covers 

not only the tool assembly and dismantling 

but also the optimization of the NC 

programs used in each case. Usually, the 

tool presetter is deployed as a standalone 

solution together with the NC control 

units. Within the framework of the new 

ZOLLER Tool Management solutions, this 

control loop is extended with a further 

component: tool management using the 

The measuring experts 

For over 6 years now, ZOLLER has been presenting 

the future of measurement: with 

cutting-edge technological innovation, 

high-quality products and outstanding customer 

service. What has emerged from 

this is a globally operating company that 

has secured its place at the top with its enthusiasm 

for testing and measuring technology, 

with its keen sense of economic 

efficiency, and its consistent obligation to 

quality. 

ZOLLER measures tools with a precision of 2 

microns – quickly, simply, micron-accurately 

and reliably! Precisely measured and preset 

tools mean less waste and machine 

downtime, higher quality and more profit. 

From the simple tool presetter to fully automatic 

adjustment and measuring equipment 

in the premium class – ZOLLER provides 

the right solution for every purpose. Intuitive 

and simple to operate thanks to the 

unique ZOLLER pilot 3.0 control software.

The machining experts 

Since 1997, KROMI has been concerning itself 

with tool-related logistics concepts. 

The background is a rising demand on the 

part of the manufacturing industry for integrated, 

all-round supplier solutions that 

should embrace not only trading but also a 

simplifi cation of the entire ordering procedure. 

The chief focus of the logistics developments 

lies on the acceleration of the 

customer‘s business processes and on a 

continuous improvement of the machining 

processes with the aim of optimizing the 

costs per part. 

The KROMI Tool Center KTC supplies production 

areas directly on-site with all key 

tools. Internet-based e-commerce solutions 

bring the ordering process right to the 

employee‘s workplace if desired. This allows 

the entire tool procurement logistics 

to be outsourced as an external service – 

with a signifi cant savings potential for the 

customer.

ZOLLER „toolmanager“ software. This is 

network-compatible software that manages 

all individual components and 

complete tools for the assembly and 

dismantling of tools. The precondition 

here is the constant maintenance and 

updating of the master tool data and a 

prompt recording of the ongoing tool 

consumption. 

This is exactly where the potential lies 

for a combination of the two tool management 

systems from KROMI and 

ZOLLER: whereas in the standalone solution 

the master data and transaction 

data has to be entered manually to a 

major extent, the required information 

can be exchanged in future via an interface 

between the two systems. After all, 

all the data needed for the tool presetting, 

and therefore ultimately for optimizing 

the machining process in the 

ZOLLER system, are delivered, so to 

speak, free to the door by the KROMI logistics 

systems. That involves the master 

tool data, on the one hand, and all the 

transaction data such as stocks and consumption, 

on the other hand, which is 

directly recorded by the KROMI Tool Center 

KTC, the KROMI Kanban system and 

the KROMI eCommerce software KeC and 

evaluated every 10 minutes if required. 

Through the coupling of the two system 

worlds from KROMI and ZOLLER in terms 

of data, the user obtains a superordinate 

overall system with a uniform data basis. 

That not only means potential for rationalization 

through a reduction of effort 

required in maintaining the data, it also 

means that the customer obtains the 

possible cost savings within the scope of 

the two control loops in, as it were, a twin 

pack.

From Pros for Pros! 

Machine specialist HELLER and KROMI start first KTC pilot project 

It was a special pleasure for Wolf-Dietrich 

Pilz, the branch manager of KROMI Logistik 

Süd in Stuttgart, to receive the commitment 

for a pilot project at HELLER during the last 

AMB. Production Manager Markus Schwirzinger 

and Project Director brought the good 

news on the sidelines of Germany‘s largest 

specialist trade fair for metalworking in 

Stuttgart. 

The commitment was preceded by several 

preliminary talks held between the two machining 

specialists. The reason for the interest 

shown by the machine builders from 

Nürtingen is the enormous rise in incoming 

orders, which can only be mastered in the 

medium term by increasing production capacities. 

The pilot system is deployed in a 

manufacturing area for rotary components 

containing a series of lathes producing in 

3-shift operation. The KROMI Tool Center 

KTC is the first choice for the company to 

supply the production area with indexable 

cutting inserts around the clock. KROMI is 

also the only manufacturer-independent 

provider to supply a customized electronic 

tool catalog along with the KTC, with whose 

help all products used up to now can also be 

issued through the KTC in future.

Interview with Dr.-Ing. Peter Herrmann, Production Supervisor at the Nürtingen location 

KROMI newsletter: Dr. Hermann, HELLER is 

regarded as the technology leader in the field 

of metal-cutting machining.Why are you interested 

in KROMI tool management? 

HELLER: Our conception of tool management in 

this project primarily relates to the procurement 

and supply logistics. Due to the present 

order situation, we have to fully exploit our 

existing production capacities, i.e. produce in 

3-shift operation. In such a case, the equipment 

has to be available 24 hours a day since 

we cannot afford any downtimes caused, for 

instance, by a lack of tools. The principle of an 

automatic tool dispensing machine with integrated 

supply logistics greatly appeals to us. 

KROMI newsletter: But as a machine manufacturer 

can‘t you do that yourselves? 

HELLER: Our competence lies in the development 

of efficient machining solutions and in 

the selection and testing of tools. In contrast, 

the subject of supply logistics is not one of our 

core competencies. In that area, we are happy 

With its new machines and plants such as the

to work with service providers because we 

place great value on competent consulting. In 

general, every company should only do what it 

can do best. 

KROMI newsletter: What is it about the KROMI 

solution that impresses you? 

HELLER: We see ourselves as machining professionals 

with extensive application expertise. 

Our employees are recognized technology and 

tool specialists. To that extent, only a manufacturer-independent 

tool management solution 

came into question for us – a solution that poses 

no restrictions on us in the choice of tools. 

There are not too many providers offering 

that. 

KROMI newsletter: So, is the KTC just another 

kind of tool dispenser for you? 

HELLER: No, not at all. The KROMI system offers 

a range of additional benefits. As well as the 

electronic tool catalog tailored to our needs, we 

now also have much more detailed tool consumption 

statistics, which gives us markedly

valuable production capacities but also saves 

money as well.

The KROMI foreign sales structure is being reorganized in the wake of global expansion 

The problem is not new among rapidly growing 

companies: in the wake of the permanent 

expansion when building up a worldwide 

sales network, customer proximity 

often loses out. Contacts change or new 

ones join the ranks, responsibilities are redistributed. 

In such cases, it can happen 

now and then that the question of who is the 

competent person responsible for customer 

contact gets lost along the way. For this very 

reason, KROMI has adapted its sales structure 

in its branches and offices outside Germany: 

whereas the question of who is competent 

for what task has in general been 

regulated via the headquarters in Hamburg, 

the employees will in future be actively 

operating in the region itself in the role of 

Key Account Managers or Key Area Managers. 

Within the framework of this new demarcation 

of competence, the question of 

responsibility is already clearly determined.

Regardless of all worldwide turbulence, the 

Brazilian economy remains on its growth

KROMI Logistica do Brasil in 2008, 

KROMI has already placed itself on this attractive

employees around Managing Director Jenis 

Diz Acosta have already been able to realize 

a number of successful customer projects 

during the past three years. In addition to 

the region around the present location Joinville, 

where numerous German companies 

have production sites, there is already a 

further office situated 500 km away in São 

Paulo. The obligatory closeness to the customers 

is in Brazil in contradiction to the 

size of the country, which means that further
