ALOtec-Macros and Templates
Easy and efficient system operation
The ALOtec macros and templates are program-generating wizards that significantly simplify the programming effort, enable faster setup, minimize errors and thus make the editing process even more efficient.
Faster setup
Predefined program sequences enable significantly faster setup.
Easy operation
Intuitive wizards simplify operation and make the system easy to understand.
Automatic adjustment
With just a few parameters, the macro automatically adapts the design to the component.
Error minimization
Automatic program assistants effectively reduce operating errors.

Macros: Programming is that easy
Watch our video to see how intuitively and quickly a weld mark can be programmed on a cylinder component using an ALOtec macro – demonstrated directly in real time.
ALOtec generators
Overview of macros
The ALOtec generators are program-generating macros that significantly simplify the programming effort and make the machining process even more efficient.

3D-probe
teach point
Calibrates a static coordinate system using 3 points
Further macros are available depending on the process. We are happy to create special macros for your machining process according to your requirements.
