INCREDIBLE 5-Axis Machines: Hermle Factory Tour!

[@gwharton68]

It is really great that the president of the company can explain his product so well. Fantastic company both in plant and personnel.

[@nyccnc]

Agree! Thanks!

[@stumccabe]

gwharton68 True. The Germans really value and respect engineering in a way that the movers and shakers in the U.K. don't - our "elite" is composed of money men and lawyers. It saddens me that British engineering has declined while Germany's has continued to grow and improve. In the U.K. engineering is looked down on as a dirty business for the lower classes - I despise our "leaders".

[@markdavis2475]

@@stumccabe Got to agree with you mate! There is still a good engineering base in the UK, but its decline started in the early 80,s and is reaching a critical point now. But you may want to ask some large UK water companies what their opinion of modern German engineering is, e.g. pumps, there are some real horror stories out there! Sadly the new German stuff replaced old UK stuff which was no longer available.

[@anarcowhatever]

Not only does he know the machines and processes perfecly; he is also quite pasionate about them

[@GodzillaGoesGaga]

@Stu McCabe, you are 100% correct which is why I left the UK for the USA. I would say that a lot of my school and university friends who were in Engineering or Applied Sciences left the UK because the UK companies got idiots in to manage them. Basically everything in the UK is short sighted as far as Engineering is concerned, along with the fact that Engineering is thought of as a dirty job done by not so smart people. Disgusting. Engineering in Germany, Japan, China and the USA is a top echelon job.

[@Pow3llMorgan]

I love the comically German pragmatism of "We built a larger building around our old building, fitted it with cranes and used them to dismantle the old building". But more importantly, I really love how much effort Hermle puts in their trainee / apprenticeship program. I wish more big manufacturing businesses invested more in that.

I used to work in the mold making field. Hermle is by far the best CNC milling machine I had ever seen in my life, unfortunately I was stuck on a 5-axis OKK while my great colleague had the privilege to work on this state of the art equipment. This machine is absolutely fantastic, Super accurate and fast. Hats off to Hermle and thank you making this tour public.

[@incubatork]

Reminds me of my days at school in the uk, Our firs year at age 11 was divided into metalwork, woodwork, engineering drawing, cooking, sewing and painting/artwork, from those subjects you picked 3 for your second year, 3rd year you also picked 3 but could only change 1 of the first years 3, and then you carried those on till leaving at 16. This was ontop of your main subjects like maths, english, science etc. I first used a lathe at 13 and on retiring at 55 i bought a small lathe and remembered almost everything. All schools had these workshops and you may get 3 hours a week in each subject. Companies applied to the svhools looking for teainees and you could gain an apprentaship. Nowadays its all theory, books videos and homework, not suprising the kids get bored and don't study, your interest is not captured and amplified towards a job. Another great tour into a top class company. thanks for sharing.

Fantastic tour John. Very cool of Hermle to let you photograph it along the way. Hermle machines are super reliable and accurate machines. Hermle mills made every tile for the space shuttles since ‘87 or so and they continue to make silica tiles for the Orion capsule, and Sierra Nevada’s Dreamchaser commercial cargo vehicle. The silica material is really tough on ballscrews and we’ve had Hermle replace them every few years despite elaborate dust collection systems on them. Otherwise, these machines just keep on going and going. You’re a lucky guy to get that tour. Cheers

The machines are workhorses and offer unbeatable machining bay access. We develop our own post processors and utilize laser systems for tool measurement. The HSK workholding they spoke about is used heavily and offers critical location accuracy. For 5 axis machines, I don't believe you can do better than Hermle, it's all they make. The Hermle US manager on this tour shows what a leader should know... All the details, excellent tour and thanks for sharing it!

Places like this is where civilization is made. I feel like not enough people really appreciate this fact. They just take technology for granted. They don't really care where it came from, that it comes from a very long and exquisite chain of technical advancements (some big, most tiny). I'm not really sure, but I feel like Germany is one of the countries that best understands this. This appreciation is the root whence their excellent products, stellar reputation, and huge trade surplus sprouts. I would suggest that other countries that want to replicate that success begin by developing similar values (and competencies) instead of starting trade wars. The formula for economic success is simple, but difficult and time consuming: build it, and they will come.

[@allyourcode]

Meanwhile, in the US, we have BS companies like WeWork, who know how to wow overly-endowed private investors using presentation slides, but can't run a service that creates real value (in fact, they've become quite efficient at burning money).

Extensive apprentice program, super clean factory, attention to detail, clever designs, precision manufacturing. Typical German philosophy. That's why they are the best engineers in the world. The Germans emphasize trades in the schools instead of just college and sitting in front of a screen for the rest of your life. They don't have to make things in China. They have the properly trained young people to do it right in their own country.
