Why POS?
How to find the right machine manufacturer
From purchase, to service, to after-market: The right choice.
We know how complicated and tedious it can be to find the right machine manufacturer. In addition to the actual investment, there are a large number of requirements that must be considered when purchasing your next milling machine, automation solution or lathe.
As POS GmbH & Co. KG, we are firmly at your side throughout the entire life cycle of our products. For example, you can use us to finance directly without a bank, receive detailed training and free telephone support.
If support is needed, our service team is on site and competent – at a price you won’t find anywhere else on the market.
This is why POS:
Extremely compact machine range and component selection
- Experienced service technician quality and fast telephone diagnosis.
65% of breakdowns are resolved immediately and free of charge over the phone.
- Almost all spare parts available.
A spare parts stock of over 6.5 million euros ensures availability.
Please: Always ask to see the spare parts warehouse!
- Conservative product development ensures high technical availability.
- POS is working hard on the target of using the same components as much as possible for different machine types. This increases availability, quality and also the level of knowledge at the same time.
Better accuracy and stiffness of POS machines
- The most favourable machine at POS already offers a positioning accuracy of up to 5µm in accordance with DIN EN ISO 230.
Compared to well-known manufacturers, this results in up to 100 % improved accuracy scenarios.
You will be able to supply your customers even under the toughest tolerance requirements.
- POS is not focussing on the last second in processing.
Rather, the focus is on process-reliable feasibility, even with extreme materials.
Even in the smallest machines, POS installs the same guide thicknesses as in the large machines.
Whatever the job, you can get it done with a POS machine.
- Cast steel as the base body.
On average, POS machines weigh approx. 30 % more. This reduces vibrations, increases your tool life and simultaneously increases your process reliability.
Options – no, thanks! Almost all conceivable options are standard
- In this way, we ensure that you can successfully process all orders.
- Future-proof: All POS machines are equipped from the outset so that expansion for future automation solutions is no problem.
- If you have several POS machines, you can switch from machine A to machine B at short notice – because all are equipped the same way.
- This way, our service team always finds the same machines. The service experience increases and repair times decrease. Cost reduction and fast restart are guaranteed.
German Quality Components
- Machining centres from POS thus experience over 92% German quality components in the value chain.
Important: Standard components are used here and not components specially made for the manufacturer, where the manufacturer can dictate the prices and the customer is 100% dependent on the manufacturer’s “drip”.
- POS components can be procured on the free market. This results in an honest and open calculation.
- POS always reaches to the “top” of the shelf for you. If there is a choice to select a certain quality level within a component, then we do so.
Example: Even with the cheapest machine, the customer receives the high-end TNC 640 control.
Furthermore, the best glass scales from Heidenhain are installed.
Future-proof – from the first hour
- Even the first machine had “air on the table” as standard, so that a zero-point clamping system, for example, could be integrated at any time.
This shows you how POS has been thinking right from the start: the machine must be adaptable to your needs at all times
needs at any time, and not the other way round. This is your safety in a non-transparent market!
- Standardized spare parts ensure long-term availability.
- Automation: A word that is indirectly already in the company name POS. Of course, all POS machines have the necessary prerequisites to be integrated into an automated process at any time.
- All 5-axis machining centres also have integrated collision protection in all axes.
This reduces the risk of collision and lowers operating costs at the same time.
Better Service – Fair, Fast and Competent
- Competent, fast phone support: 65% of all downtime is solved in this way.
- There hasn’t been an answering machine since POS existed. This way, you can also reach us outside normal working hours. Also free of charge on weekends!
- POS has more than 25 in-house service technicians.
- In addition to our central warehouse, each service technician has a mobile warehouse to be able to react immediately on site.
- At 79 euros per hour, we are the industry leader.
A clear statement for decades! POS does not want to become “rich” from service. Fair cooperation, so that you remain a loyal POS customer and the next machine will be a POS again.
- POS does not just record the time until the service technician arrives at the customer’s premises.
Instead, it measures the time at which the service call was successfully completed. Exactly then you can use your machine again. Here, POS needs on average only 36 hours until your machine is up and running again. We do this all over Germany.
Own automation solutions
- Patented automation solutions from POS.
Customer-specific automation systems that are linked to machining centres are often very expensive and therefore increase the entrepreneurial risk. It is not uncommon for the investment to double.
The result: the cell “must” run around the clock. It’s not “can” but “must”! Otherwise, the investment does not pay off at all.
Anyone who has ever automated a machine knows that the milling programmes have to be created at the right speed
milling programmes must be created at the right speed and the material must be clamped in a collision-proof manner.
This is exactly where many good automation projects fail.
Not at POS: POS offers a very cost-effective – patented – automation solution from its own hand. Since the investment is small, you “must” not be automated, but you “can” use automation if it makes sense to do so. At the same time, “this investment does not kill the entrepreneur.”
And all this without taking up any space, without violating CE conformity and known work processes.
A must see event!
- Should the POS-own automation solution not fit. Of course, we offer you turnkey automation concepts from a single source, in cooperation with our certified partners.
- We select suitable chip technology, process sequences, specially developed POS automation cycles and much more together with you in order to create an optimum for your environment.
Used Machines
- The motto “everything from a single source” does not stop at the return of your old machine.
Upon request, POS will take back your old machine and you will not have to worry about the issues of warranty, subsequent customer, dismantling and removal and possible disposal. Simply carefree!
- Used POS machines are of course available with the proven POS fidelity guarantee and are therefore safe. Even if you choose a used POS machine.
POS finances without banks
- Unlike all others on the market, POS finances your machines directly.
So without a bank! Directly you and us! No third party. This makes things much easier.
- The financing option offers the possibility of simply suspending the monthly charge completely in times of lower capacity utilization without losing the right to take over.
- The “short-term rental” model allows you to rent machines for a short time. In this case, the machine can easily be returned afterwards. Should you decide to take it over, all rent payed will be credited. No risk in your future!
- You can simply change the machine during the runtime and thus adapt to your order situation.
- We do not need any additional collateral and no balance sheet/BWA. Your word is your bond!
POS adapts to your environment
- Very few customers have an environment as required by DIN EN ISO 230.
Air-conditioned, no sunlight, no hall door that suddenly lets cold air into the room at irregular intervals and sufficient distance from the next machine. Our customers are often (understandably) unable to comply with all these factors. This is why POS offers the possibility of thermally adapting the machine to your environment. And not only in the Z-axis!
We will tell you how to do this during your personal visit to the POS site.
We face up to any comparison
The investment in your next machining centre needs to be well considered. Of course, you can compare different machine manufacturers. And we like to make such a comparison!
