The Intec Prize, awarded at the intec trade fair for manufacturing, tool and special-purpose machine construction (Liepzig, Germany), was recently given to Fritz Studer AG. The prize recognizes outstanding results in product development, innovation, continuity in market development and other extraordinary achievements, and the award winner must be nominated. Studer won in the category of companies with more than 100 employees.
This award specifically recognizes StuderTechnology software, which automatically determines the most important process-relevant influencing variables and the relevant values for each machining step in internal and external cylindrical grinding. The software is designed to simplify the operation of cylindrical grinding machines by reducing operator involvement and to achieve better results in combination with shorter setup and machining times.
Studer was also recently awarded the Prodex Award at the Prodex Swiss Machine Tool Show.
