Your advantages. Clear. Compact. Convincing.

The highlights

PBZ slewing ring

360° flexibility for precise profile processing.

TOOL Ring

The heart of the system is the tool ring, which can be freely programmed and positioned so that the scanned profile precisely passes through all processing steps and can be removed from the downstream buffer completely finished. Small footprint, ease of maintenance, and good accessibility from all sides are just a few of the many highlights. In production operation, only the profile bar needs to be identified via the integrated scanner and confirmed after placement. The tool stations are individually configured to meet your requirements.

Maximum efficiency.

DYNAMIC SCREWDRIVER

The patented dynamic screwdriver enables a significant increase in machine capacity of up to 25%. By positioning it on a separate servo axis in front of the tool slewing ring, the tightening of aluminum and steel reinforcements can be performed parallel to machining. This reduces downtime and optimizes the production flow. The innovative technology offers an efficient solution for demanding manufacturing processes.

TOOL BREAKAGE DETECTION

A broken tool can cause production downtime and high costs – but with our intelligent tool breakage detection, we ensure maximum process reliability, allowing early detection of errors and minimizes downtime. This not only increases efficiency but also protects your workpieces from damage. Rely on state-of-the-art sensor technology and optimize your manufacturing processes with reliable real-time monitoring.

Precision and flexibility for (ALMOST) ALL profile contours.
SPECIAL PROFILE MACHINING

The profile machining center offers maximum flexibility in special profile machining and enables precise machining of almost all profile contours.

A special advantage: No additional profile supports are required for transporting the profiles. This minimizes setup time and increases cost-effectiveness. With this unique combination of versatility, precision, and efficiency, we set new standards in profile processing – for perfect results tailored precisely to your requirements.

The highlights

ASZ Dynamic Clamping System

Maximum precision thanks to the patented clamping system.

DYNAMIC CLAMPING SYSTEM

The automatic sawing center from THORWESTEN is equipped with a dynamic clamping system that allows clamping as close as possible to the sawblade. This not only improves cutting quality but also increases process reliability – especially with complex profile geometries. The patented system ensures precise clamping of the material, minimizes vibrations, and thus contributes to greater dimensional accuracy. An innovative solution for the highest demands in profile processing.

Stability meets precision.

Stable construction of the machine

The stable construction of the automatic sawing center ensures maximum precision – even under demanding conditions. The torsion-resistant design and vibration-damping components ensure smooth operation and consistently precise cuts, even with changing profiles.

In contrast to lighter systems, the solid construction offers clear advantages: cutting forces are reliably absorbed, vibrations are minimized and tool wear is reduced.

The precisely guided axes and solid machine structure ensure consistent dimensional accuracy over time - a decisive factor for efficiency, especially in series production or frequently changing orders.

ASZ Stable structure
ASZ Stepless angle adjustment

22.5° to 157.5°.

STEPLESS ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

The automatic angle adjustment enables miter cuts at variable angles from 22.5° to 157.5° – continuously and fully automated. Precise angle adjustment takes place without manual intervention, significantly reducing setup times and eliminating operating errors.

Unlike systems with fixed grid points, every cutting angle can be precisely controlled. This ensures maximum flexibility, the highest accuracy, and consistent repeatability – even with complex profile geometries or changing jobs.

The result: clean, dimensionally accurate cuts with minimal effort and maximum efficiency.

Precision and flexibility for (ALMOST) ALL profile contours.

SPECIAL PROFILE MACHINING

The sawing center offers maximum flexibility in special profile processing and enables the precise cutting of virtually any profile contour. Thanks to innovative technology, we are able to process even complex geometries efficiently and precisely.

A key advantage: No additional profile supports are required for transporting the profiles. This minimizes setup time and increases cost-effectiveness. With this unique combination of versatility, precision, and efficiency, we set new standards in profile cutting – for perfect results tailored precisely to your requirements.

PROFILE MACHINING CENTER. MPZ

Your advantages. Clear. Compact. Convincing.

The highlights

Production line: efficient design, THORWESTEN

Maximum performance in minimal space.

Compact design

The space-saving design enables maximum performance in the smallest possible space. The intelligent combination of an automatic sawing center (ASZ), profile machining center (PBZ), and the linking table (VKN) creates a seamless machining process in a minimal footprint. The entire system is modular in design, accessible from all sides, and can be operated efficiently by a single operator. All components are clearly arranged, allowing for short distances, quick changeovers, and easy maintenance. The compact design creates room for productivity – no matter how limited your space is.

Fewer routes, more output.

Efficient processes - without manual intervention

Thanks to the innovative arrangement of the machines, a completely new workflow is enabled: Profiles no longer need to be sorted or sequenced manually – this is done by the automatic profile transfer. Furthermore, profiles can be flexibly added or removed during the ongoing production process, without any fixed sequence. The processing sequence is only determined by scanning at the profile processing center (PBZ). This keeps the production flow dynamic and adaptable, tailored to your requirements. The result: optimized paths, reduced manual intervention, and maximum efficiency. This intelligent process saves time, conserves resources, and ensures smooth operations – for maximum flexibility.

Production line: Automation system for efficient manufacturing
MPZ + steel saw top view
Perfect interaction.
Parallel profile and steel cutting

The Modular Profile Machining Center (MPZ) enables seamless integration with the automated steel cutting process – for a perfectly coordinated production process. The sawing data for the window profiles is automatically transmitted to the steel saw, ensuring that the corresponding steel profile is cut at exactly the right time and in the right length. This "just-in-time" principle ensures maximum precision, minimizes storage times, prevents mix-ups, and significantly reduces the time spent searching for the required steel length. The automated data transfer reduces manual intervention and increases process reliability. This creates optimal collaboration between profile and steel cutting – efficient, reliable, and fully digital.

Perfectly tailored to your requirements.
Tailor-made machine solutions

No two companies are alike – that's why every Modular Profile Machining Center (MPZ) is designed precisely to meet your requirements. Whether you require special profile geometries, customized machining steps, or specific space requirements: Our engineers develop a solution that perfectly fits your workflow. Instead of standardized compromises, you receive a machine concept that supports your processes, simplifies workflows, and increases your efficiency.
