The ELEMENT is a big step for automation that thrives in even the tightest spaces. Maximize your machine's potential, even in a small shop with limited floor space.
LEARN MORESMARTFLEX APP
Bring high-precision control to your automation cell with an Automatic Part Picker (APP) on your side.
Your materials are loaded, your parts are cutting… Now all that’s left is to pick up the pieces! Grab a seat, get some coffee. We have a machine that would be happy to get those for you.
Based on our SmartFlex RAPID laser automation, our APP system lets you enjoy the benefits of automation with a highly reduced occurrence of accidents, such as incorrectly cut materials or jams resulting from improper part removal.
That’s where the SmartFlex APP’s 320 independently controlled vacuum modules come in.
By utilizing part detection technology to pick only the correct parts from your work area, the APP automatically denests your parts from an entire sheet at once and then places them on a conveyor for easy access. Scrap is moved directly to carts, keeping the working area free of debris and ready for continuous, unassisted, truly smart cutting.
BUILD YOUR PERFECT PRODUCTION LINE
- Our laser automation line is fully modular, giving you and your shop the perfect opportunity to create a machining and fabrication solution that’s custom-built to your exact specifications. And with configurations that require up to 30% less floorspace than other setups, designing the setup that’s right for you has never been easier or more cost-effective.
PRODUCTIVITY THAT’S GOOD TO GROW
- From small fabrication shops to massive lights-out operations, our laser automation line comes ready with a wide range of options that make it a great fit in nearly any scenario. This isn’t something you’ll need to replace in 5 years.
EXPERT INSIGHTS INCLUDED
