    Autonomous production

    Race Modular

    The future of the rolling bearing industry lies in the autonomous use of production machines. In very close cooperation with our customers, the Supfina Race Modular system solution has been systematically developed for the autonomous and unmanned superfinishing of rolling bearings.

    All key production processes are automated and run 24/7 without an operator:

    • Batch change
    • Mechanical set-up process
    • Tool change
    • Finishing stone change in production
    • Component handling
    • Control through production line

    The Supfina Race Modular offers all the advantages of autonomous 24/7 production without an operator:

    • Higher production capacity utilization
    • Faster order processing and therefore cost and time savings
    • Precision and flexibility
    • Increased productivity
    • Work safety
    • Scalability

    Thanks to its integration into the IT infrastructure, the Supfina Race Modular offers flexible adaptability to the dynamic processes of the entire production line.

    RaceNeo

    Cost-effectiveness through robot handling

    Flexibility, reliability, safety and highest machining quality have always been the values of the Supfina machines Race, RacePro and RaceFlex.

    The new Supfina RaceNeo combines these values with the demand for highest machining quality and increasing requirements regarding economic efficiency in series production at the same time.

    • Shortest non-productive times and safe loading due to integrated robot
    • Small footprint and compact design
    • Easy integration into automated production lines
    • Modular adaptation of workpiece holder
    • Proven core components
    Workpiece data
    Workpiece diameter max Size A 100 mm
    Workpiece diameter max Size B 200 mm

    RaceFlex

    Flexibility for small-scale production

    The Supfina RaceFlex can consistently produce rolling bearing races of the highest quality with maximum adaptability, even for prototypes or small-scale production.

    A combination of up to four different superfinishing units allows almost limitless flexibility

    • The greatest possible flexibility when machining any raceway geometries
    • The highest quality is easily achieved, even for small batches and single parts
    • Creation of a surface with a high load-bearing capacity and good lubricating properties
    • Improved tool life
    • Ideal for small and medium batches
    • Production flexibility makes it a sound investment
