Function
The ALME principle
All edge processing machines from ALME AG follow the same patented basic principle:
The workpiece is seized by an integrated feed unit and automatically (with the edgemill 100 manually) moved to the milling head and/or grinding conveyor via a guidance rail. In so doing, one edge of the workpiece is evenly machined.

- The diagram shows the basic principle, taking the example of the edgemill 400.
In real-life operations, the ALME principle really is that simple:
You gain your super edges in five simple stages.
| 1. Set up | ![]() |
Undertake the basic settings in a few movements and switch on the machine. |
| 2. Feed | ![]() |
Feed the workpiece into the machine. |
| 3. Machine | ![]() |
The feed unit takes the workpiece and guides it to the milling head and/or grinding conveyor. |
| 4. Remove | ![]() |
Remove the workpiece. Machine other edges: Rotate workpiece and repeat as of stage 2. |
| 5. Finished! | ![]() |
Look at the result! |
