In the world of mechanical machining, efficiency is never the result of a single element. It comes from the seamless integration of machines, tools and processes. That shared vision is what brought the collaboration between OKUMA and NIKKEN – Elbo Controlli NIKKEN together: a partnership born to offer workshops a concrete, reliable and high-performance solution.
The result? The new E46 presetter series, fully compatible with the OKUMA OSP control, designed to simplify day-to-day operations and significantly improve productivity.
Off-machine presetter: more uptime, less downtime
Off-machine presetter equipment is now a strategic lever for increasing operational efficiency. Preparing and measuring tools before they enter the machine means drastically reducing downtime and making the most of every minute of production.
With Elbo Controlli NIKKEN presetters, tool preparation becomes a smooth, organised process: less waiting, fewer unexpected interruptions, greater consistency in setup and a rapid and measurable return on investment.
Native integration with OKUMA OSP
Every Elbo Controlli NIKKEN presetter comes standard with a dedicated post-processor, capable of automatically generating tool programmes in OKUMA OSP format, including accurate lengths and diameters.
Data transfer is simple and secure:
- via USB stick
- via company network
This eliminates manual entries, reduces the risk of errors and ensures standardised and repeatable processes, even in complex production environments.
Secure data and total control: TID & TTS
The OKUMA × NIKKEN collaboration also introduces two key features for advanced and reliable tool management.
TID – Tool ID System: a system that allows tool data to be recorded and transferred via two-dimensional codes, avoiding loading errors and automatically updating correction values.
TTS – Tool Tracking System: a tracking system that always provides complete visibility of tools, including which ones will be used in the next stages and how they are organised within the OKUMA tool magazine.
The result? Less time wasted, more control, and no operational uncertainty.
