HK-MAT

HK-MAT vending machine - The tool managers in your production

The vending machine from HAHN+KOLB stores tools, aids or consumables that are important to your production processes and enables employees to access them easily. The dispenser monitors and logs each removal. If there is only a small number of a certain item left in the HK-MAT, the system will automatically reorder the item to ensure that vital work equipment is available whenever it's needed.

Create decentralization in your production and accelerate the production process: With a user-oriented article selection and the right HK-MAT, you make the most important production materials available at the right place and always at the right time.

The potential for savings through the use of an output system in machining production

Many different types of costs are incurred in everyday work: Labor costs due to search and removal times, costs due to machine downtime, costs for the maintenance of a centrally managed tool vending system as well as the costs for the replacement of used tools.

For a detailed process cost calculation - individually tailored to your needs - we will be pleased to be at your disposal. We can calculate other factors for you, from demand recognition to purchase requisition to electronic invoice receipt.

Our simplified overview gives you a quick overview of how a manual goods issue compares to a digital issue system.

Helmut Diebold GmbH & Co., Jungingen

Helmut Diebold GmbH & Co., Jungingen

For over 66 years, the traditional company Helmut Diebold GmbH & Co. has been manufacturing tool holders, chucks and spindles, among other things, and the procurement effort for the cutting tools necessary for production had been very high up to this point. To save time, automate processes and maintain a reliable knowledge of stock at all times, Diebold opted for the HAHN+KOLB HK-MAT vending machine.

WILO SE Lehrwerkstatt, Hof

WILO SE Lehrwerkstatt, Hof

In the WILO Group's training workshop, the distances to the central output in production are long. "We were therefore primarily concerned with decentralization," reports Markus Röder, trainer for metal technology. "We have been working with HAHN+KOLB for more than ten years and have already implemented several projects together. Therefore, we were familiar with the HK-MAT vending machine and decided to use it in the new training workshop."
