Böllhoff: Your agricultural machinery expertfor fastening technology
Editorial
Agricultural machinery engineering is one of the
oldest and most important industries of mankind.
Characterised by a high innovative ability, the
requirements of an up-to-date as well as efficient
food production must be met at all times.
Over the past years, agriculture has become
increasingly important. As a result of the continu-
ous discussions on environmental issues, apart
from the classic role as a food supplier, this sec-
tor is now as well regarded as an important ener-
gy supplier. The degree of technologisation is of
decisive importance and requirements for pro-
duction are accordingly high.
Böllhoff is a leading system supplier and interna-
tional service provider for fastening and assembly
technology; and as such is a recognised partner
to agricultural machinery manufacturers and their
suppliers. Be it screws, rivets, clinches or C-parts
management – the Böllhoff name stands for inno-
vative and reliable solutions.

Global competition in the agricultu-ral machinery industry results inhigh costs and innovation pressure.Therefore, it is innovative ability andtechnical potential that are thebasis for agricultural machinerymanufacturers’ and suppliers’ chan-ces of success. The acceleration oftechnical progress as well as thesatisfaction of customer needs leadto an ever advancing technologisa-tion and to a growing variety ofversions.
Moreover, on the supplier side,there is an increasing focus onintercompany cooperation in formsof strategic partnerships aiming atan improved competence in thefields of development, productionand logistics.
Diversity asroutine
As a provider of complete solutionsand systems, Böllhoff offers pro-ducts and services for all areas ofthe agricultural machinery value-added chain. Customer orientationbegins with research and develop-ment.
With its C-parts management,Böllhoff delivers products andfasteners to the heart of the pro-duction process. There, customisedequipment and machines designedaccording to the Böllhoff portfolio,ensure high efficiency. Optimisedprocesses avoid downstream costs.
Our partnerships are based on anuncompromisingly high qualitystandard and a corporate cultureimbued with the spirit of a familybusiness.

The ECOTECH service (EconomicTechnical Engineering) allowsagricultural machine manufacturersand suppliers to benefit from techni-cal advice from Böllhoff engineers.Their industrial know-how andadvice covers all areas of fastenertechnology, corrosion protectionand screw retention.The simultaneous standardisationand optimisation of fasteners in the
development stage simplifiesassembly and reduces tool costs. Inview of the ever faster technologicaldevelopment and the increasedcompetitive pressure, this service isa crucial advantage in the agricultu-ral machinery industry.
RAUCHBöllhoff organised a customer fair onthe factory premises of RAUCH.There, services, products and systemsadapted to the specific customerneeds were presented. Many of theRAUCH employees could acquireinformation about the current develop-ments of the fastening technology andas well as new impulses and solutionsfor their work. Apart from that, the
Böllhoff experts held a presentation onthe optimisation potential of fastenersand assembly processes employed byRAUCH. The basis for these resultswas the analysis of processes carriedout in a line walk on the day of thepresentation in the company produc-tion facilities.
CASE NEW HOLLANDAgricultural machines are exposed tostrong vibrations. RIVKLE® blind rivetnuts are a well-proven solution tofasten a highly stable thread onthin-walled sheet metals, withoutcutting a thread or rework a thread.Coated sheet casings stay un -damaged.
Research and development
The task for the manufacturer todevelop a technology for farmers aswell as for contractors which cor -responds to individual requirementsand to the requirements at the indi-vidual locations is both a challengeand a risk. At the same time shallagricultural machinery be perfectlyuseable for all kinds of soil and inall kinds of changing climatic condi-tions.
Optimised fastening and assemblyprocesses are often the key to reali-sing modern material and compo -site construction concepts.
That is why Böllhoff is positioned asa recognised service provider andsystem supplier with a comprehen-sive service competence in the fieldof fastening and assembly techno-logy.

Under the name ECOSIT®
(Economic Supply in Time) Böllhoffhas established a supply andstocking system – for addedefficiency and cost effectiveness.Böllhoff manages the entire supplychain for its customers: materialplanning, buying, quality assurance,storage and the internal distributionof goods, right through to the pro-duction and maintenance area.
ECOSIT® makes processes in theagricultural machinery industry per-manently more reliable and simple –by reducing the number of suppliersand ensuring 100% supplycapability.
SAME DEUTZ-FAHR At regular intervals, the numerousunloading points in the customer’sproduction are supplied with the mostdifferent DIN parts, parts as perdrawing, fastening technologies of ourown production as well as with otherC-parts. Thanks to the ECOSIT®
procurement system, logistic andadministrative processes could besignificantly reduced.
SmartBin® supply system One of Böllhoff’s supply systemsfeatures the so-called SmartBin®
technology, which was developed byBossard in Zug, Switzerland and islicensed to Böllhoff. The items to bestored and monitored are filled inboxes at the customer’s locations.Each of these boxes is placed onelectronic scales which serve as aweight detector. Böllhoff checks their
weight each day online and thusascertains the customer‘s current on-site stock. As soon as the calculatedstock in a box drops below the defi-ned replacement limit, the items will beautomatically reordered. In practicethis has significantly reduced the stockand process costs for the customer.Process reliability has, on the otherhand, increased considerably.

Innovative ability and flexibility aretwo of the biggest challenges forthe agricultural machinery industry.The market is subject to considera-ble fluctuations and high compe -titive pressure. The growing modeldiversity and the increasing degreeof equipment contribute to a rise inproduction individuality. This requi-res an optimisation of material andof information flow. C-partsmanagement systems simplifyprocesses, minimise stocks, avoidsupply shortages and reduce costs.
There must, of course, be an unin-terrupted supply to the assemblyand maintenance lines. Even just amissing or faulty fastener risksbringing production to a standstill.

sBöllhoff’s flexibility and innovativestrength is reflected in its widerange of fastening and assemblyproducts for the production andmodernisation of the agriculturalmachinery industry: screws, nuts,thread inserts, quick-releasefasteners, rivets, standard andcustom-made parts in all therequired dimensions and materials.All fasteners and their processing
systems are carefully coordinated.Production and modernisationprocesses can also be optimisedwith Böllhoff’s innovative screwand joining systems.
CLAAS For fully automatic screwing ofconveyor chains for all series ofcombine harvesters, CLAAS employsthe UNIQUICK® Vario screw system byBöllhoff. This stationary screw systemis equipped with an automatic screwfeed system in multi-spindle design.Per conveyor plate, two fasteners aresimultaneously screwed. At CLAAS,the entire assembly process benefits
from the reduction in assembly timesand costs, from a wear-free operationthanks to maintenance-free guidesand drag chains, from the highprocess reliability ensured by the auto-matic feed system, from controlledscrewing and from the completenesscheck system.

Up to 50 percent of the addedvalue of an agricultural machineryare produced by suppliers.Yesterday’s part suppliers are nowestablishing themselves as specia-lists in cooperations or develop tobecome system suppliers. Thecomplexity of agricultural machinerytoday requires cross-companycooperation. New business modelswill considerably change the coope-ration within this industry. Modernelectronic media are becomingincreasingly important for thecoordination of tasks based on thedivision of labour.
