A.K.S. Gruppen

Technology

CNC Laser Cutting

A.K.S. has laser cutting machines with a working area of as much as 4,000 x 2,000 mm. This extended working area ensures an optimal use of raw materials while at the same time reducing the need for welding in large constructions.

The automatic feeding system ensures a high capacity and minimises the price of the product.

With a laser effect of 6000 W we are able to cut steel and stainless steel as thick as 25 mm.

Laser cutting is ideal for prototypes and in cases where punching the outline may be difficult or require expensive tools.

Combined Punching and Laser Cutting

A.K.S. Metalindustri uses combined punching / lasercutting machines where the outline requires a great degree of freedom.

By combining the rather expensive laser technology with the economical punching technology where the outline allows this, we open up new possibilities for the complete machining of sheet metal without unnecessary operations and handlings. Another possibility is use of forming tools, which can only be done using a punching machine.

Laser Cutting

A.K.S. has laser cutting machines with a working area of as much as 3,000 x 1,500 mm. This extended working area ensures an optimal use of raw materials while at the same time reducing the need for welding in large constructions.

The automatic feeding system ensures a high capacity and minimises the price of the product.

CNC bending on press brakes

Precision bending is entirely dependent on two things: experienced, specially trained staff and quality press brakes. With our wide range of press brakes, from small and fast 1-metre pressers to 5-metre pressers with a pressure of 320 tons and 9-axis CNC press brakes, we can perform all bending tasks. Our newest CNC press brake calculates the bending programme automatically, changes bending tools by itself and continuously measuring to ensure correct bending angles, allowing for very quick production of small volumes and prototypes.

All of this enables us to deliver “the best bender in town”!

CNC rolling

A.K.S. Metalindustri A/S has a wide range of sheet rollers of various sizes. A.K.S.Metalindustri A/S was among the first to acquire a 4-rolled CNC-controlled roller that can roll ellipses, ovals and other shapes that are otherwise not possible to roll. The controls also enable high-precision rolling of cases, cabinets, etc.

Profile rolling

A.K.S. Metalindustri A/S rolls all types of steel profiles for flanges and rings.

CNC Stud Welding

A.K.S. Metalindustri A/S has Denmark’s largest CNC bolt/stud welding machine. The work area is 1600x1200mm, with three feeding robots and electronic monitoring and control of weld quality. Bolt welding has the advantage over bushings that it cannot be seen on the front and it is also a cheaper method.

Bushings/insert nuts

The assembly of insert nuts and stud/bolts requires great experience and specialised knowledge. Therefore, A.K.S. Metalindustri only uses specially trained employees for these tasks. Our extensive collection of precision presses utilise electronic monitoring to ensure correct insertion.

Spot Welding/resistance welding

A.K.S. Metalindustri A/S has both DC and AC spot welders. Our largest DC spot welder with an area of 1350mm can weld sheet thicknesses of up to 6-6mm in aluminium. This spot welder is built to produce in accordance with military standards.

Quality Control

Ensuring compliance with our high quality standards requires a well-assorted control department with measuring machines that are continuously calibrated and upgraded to include the latest technology. Our control department has three CNC measuring machines, a profile projector, microscopes, roughness testers, thickness measuring devices, PMI tester, etc.

Our wide assortment of measuring pins, measuring rings and thread testing pins is catalogued in an electronic database.

Our largest Zeiss 3D coordinate measuring machine is one of the largest models in all of Denmark, with a measuring area of 2400x1200x1000 and a round table of ø630 mm.

Surface Treatment

A.K.S. Group can handle all surface processes: For processes that A.K.S. Group cannot perform itself, we have a network of partners with high expertise in their given fields. Therefore, we can take care of the total process, including price, quality and delivery.

Surface technologies performed and handled by A.K.S. Group include:

  • Deburring
  • Sanding
  • Vibration deburring
  • Cleaning/wash
  • Stainng and passivaton
  • Glass blowing
  • Sandblasting
  • Galvanisation
  • and all types of painting/lacquering and related pretreatments.
