Styluses of Contour measuring machine for Firm QPT

Last Updated : April 2003

According to the E-mail communications with Firm Wetzel, first of all, we decided to try to sell Styli for contour measuring machines, because Firm Wetzel manufactures Styli for the contour measuring machines of Hommel, Mahr, Taylor Hobson, Zeiss-TSK and so on (in alphabetical order) in Europe.
In principle we may sell one piece, but there are many kinds of styli and we have no stocks. We will receive an order from the predetermined amount and we will give the quantity discount from 20 pieces of one kind.
We will show sample styli as follows. We will examine whether we can supply styli for Japanese manufacturers.

September 2002 : Negotiation with Firm Wetzel
The job only to print on a paper becomes old-fashioned, because every people can use a PC at home and at their office and print their own images on a paper using a newest software and a color printer. And they say that now is paperless and electric media are used instead of a paper. However "the advantage of the printing technique" never disappears, we think. We expect "the Wetzel's technique" as special printing rollers and also a small hole boring technique.

At the beginning Founded in 1923 by Walter Wetzel. Today's Headquarter of the Wetzel Processing Group is located in Grenzach-Wyhlen, Germany near Switzerland border. There are 6 companies in Germany, Switzerland, Poland and Canada. The Wetzel GmbH developed into an internationally renowned partner for the entire printing & embossing industry. Also WETZEL exports Spinnerets to chemical fiber manufacturers over 60 countries in the world more than 40 years. Micro drilling derived from Spinnerets manufacturing technique is changed to EDM and to Pulse Laser, and this technique is applied widely to Laser engraved printing rollers, nozzles for gas and liquid industry, small holes for the aviation and the automotive industries, filter for the chemical industry and so on. Moreover WETZEL delivers micro products for the fluid, metrology and medical industries. Of course WETZEL has special measuring station to measure small holes. The left picture shows the Spinnerets and the right one shows several kinds of hole for the Spinnerets.

Printing & Embossing Time and time again, Wetzel innovations have enlivened and inspired the market, making us the ideal partner for the entire printing and embossing industry. WETZEL products are Laser engraved Flexo rollers, Ceramic Anilox, Rotogravure cylinders, Embossing rollers, Reproduction, Nonwoven bonding rollers, Embossing machines and Perforation machines. Our specialists develop tailor-made products for our customers. The right picture shows the hand engraving. For the decoration industry, especially wallpaper, we are proud to still provide a made to measure traditional hand made engraving roller. However through the introduction of the state of the art digital laser technology, combined with our traditional hand engraving we have brought our product art to a new level and dimension.

Micro Products Micro drilling is a core competence that was expanded when the Micro Products division was still in its infancy. Laser drilling and cutting, in addition to conventional ways - using many skills developed in-house - allow the micro processing of most challenging materials. A host of laser technologies and cutting-edge laser-beam sources help us handle virtually every aspect of the industrial manufacture of micro products. Micro products are a world famous Spinnerets, Suction Gun, Wetzel aircheck (the left picture), Screens & Filters, Medical-, gluing-, dosing-nozzles, Measuring tools and Micro drillings.
