FOM Industrie Srl is an Italian manufacturer and international leader in the field of cutting and processing of aluminum extrusions. The company offers a range of high-tech machine tools, including automatic cutting and processing lines, 3-to-5 axis machining centers, single and double-head saws, and traditional machines. FOM Industrie was founded 50 years ago and today boasts an international market presence. The company is continuously developing its technology to best meet customer needs.
What is essential for the competition?
The material processing sector is a fundamental pillar of the global manufacturing industry. Demand for extruded aluminium is expected to grow at an annual rate of 6%, driven by the need for lightweight and durable materials in key sectors such as automotive, aerospace, electronics and construction.
Automated and digitized systems are a key competitive advantage here. They increase productivity, reduce energy and production costs and improve quality. They also help to utilize resources in line with stricter environmental regulations.
“We believe in creating technical solutions that best meet our customer’s needs. This motivates us to explore new technologies and to monitor available market solutions,” says Marco.
At Lenze we provide Marco and his company with a complete automation service and advanced tools for the process digitization. Our technology is implemented in three of FOM Industrie's flagship products: the Blitz saws, the FMC Series 2 machining centers and the LMX line machines.
The motion packages used consist of m850 synchronous motors and i750 and i950 servo inverters. Their combination offers high performance and ensures precise and reliable operation in every application of complex CNC machines. In addition, this product setup makes it possible to standardize the solutions for all machines.
