Hard work and first-class teamwork between the gear factory Hänel and Hainbuch has paid off. The new mandrel Mando G211 for gear manufacturers, suitable for gear hobbing, gear cutting and gear grinding, is now available as a standard mandrel from stock and can be used optimally on gear cutting machines. A recent collaboration between Hainbuch and Hänel enabled optimization of manufacturing processes, reduced setup times and improved gear quality-because the mandrel guarantees stable clamping and dampens vibrations.


Searching for a perfect partner
When a new product like the Mando G211 mandrel is launching, it must be tested thoroughly under real conditions. Hainbuch seeks out the most reliable partner for testing prototypes. One that is also open-minded about new things, places great value on precision and runs manufacturing processes on a high level. They found a partner in Hänel GmbH & Co. KG (Bad Friedrichshall, Germany). "We have had positive experiences with Hainbuch clamping devices. For us, the whole thing has sounded promising from the very beginning. We saw potential for improvements in our manufacturing and processes. Our management is very open to such partnerships. If this results in rewarding optimization and keeps investments manageable, nothing stands in the way of such a project," says Jürgen Renner, production manager at Hänel.Prototypes were ready for the series
