Mikron will display their new ProdMed line of High-Speed and High-Performance Machining Centers that are specially suited for the manufacturing of medical implants, including dental and orthopedic, as well as medical equipment, including surgical and general instruments. The new line of machining centers, including the HSM 400U ProdMed, HSM 400U ProdMed Dental and the UCP 600 Vario Prod- Med, offer the reliability, traceability and accuracy that is required for machining medical parts.

The ProdMed systems include an integrated, automatic high-capacity tool changer of up to 220 tools and pallet changing device for tooling and component changes, along with a control system (Heidenhain iTNC 530) and smart machining modules that provide advanced monitoring levels. This monitoring includes using measurements to check and evaluate tools and workpieces, inspect the tools for breakage, measure the workpiece, and document all results. In addition, the smart machine modules monitor spindle vibrations (Extended APS), automatically calibrate the machine geometry (ITC5X), and can transmit machine and process status messages to cell phones.
