Zoller Announces New Open House Showcasing Automation

Zoller Inc.’s recent Open House and Technology Days spotlighted customers who have leveraged the company’s technology to optimize processes at their companies and overcome challenges in manufacturing.

During the event from May 9 to 11 at Zoller Inc.’s North American headquarters in Ann Arbor, Michigan, more than a dozen speakers, including several longtime customers, presented about how Zoller technology has connected their operations, improved efficiency and made them more competitive.

“For us, the company DNA is always that we want to support our customers,” says Zoller Inc. President Alexander Zoller. “Our DNA is how we can support our customers to be more effective, to be more efficient and to drive that forward.”

The theme of the event was “Accelerate. Success.” May 9 showcased new inspection technology; May 10 looked at how to implement and scale tool management; and May 11 examined integrating the entire process chain of Zoller Solutions, from CAM to part.

Speaker Scott Volk, executive vice president and COO of MetalQuest Unlimited, said tool management is an important part of the future for the advanced CNC-based manufacturing company with locations in Nebraska and Idaho.

“Having a central location where all that (data) resides and it’s available to everybody at their fingertips whenever they need it and being able to exchange that data with other systems is very important for us moving forward,” Volk says.

On the heels of the open house in May, Zoller Inc. has announced that it will host an automation-focused event called “Automate. Success.” The event takes place August 9 and 10 at the company’s headquarters in Ann Arbor, Michigan. According to the company, the event will offer a roadmap for how Zoller can digitize, automate and connect manufacturing processes to achieve greater efficiency and profitability. More details are forthcoming.

Rita Conroy-Martin, director of marketing and customer experience, says, “Giving our customers the opportunity to share their success stories utilizing Zoller Solutions is a win-win for all involved. It inspires action, collaborative exchange and high-level networking at our events, and that is hugely beneficial for everyone.”
