fischer produces various fastening systems made of plastic and metal at its headquarters in Waldachtal. A key area in metal processing is the production of anchor bolts. They are produced by the cold forming of wires which are supplied in large coils. The cleaning of the forming machines causes considerable expense every year. Procurement and disposal of the oil are expensive. Cleaning is very labour-intensive and regularly causes production stoppages due to the associated downtimes of the machines. The aim of the interventions was therefore to minimise machine downtimes and reduce oil consumption.
