Flexible TRANSFERS are machines that can be placed conceptually between machining centers and traditional transfers, gaining flexibility and keeping the production characteristics for big lots.
The multicenter SG FLEX is a configurable machine that is placed between traditional transfers and machining centers, which stands out for its remarkable flexibility and high productivity.
SG FLEX is composed of:
-
Possibility of different configurations: 4, 5 or 6 stations
-
Stations with indexed tables (360 positions) arranged in 2 or 4 oil fuel drain lines and centralized automatic grease line.
-
3 horizontal XYZ modules with ISO40 or HSK63 tool holder.
-
Tool magazine with 20/100 places for each module, overall 60/300 tools.
-
ISO standard programming.
-
CNC Siemens or Fanuc or ESAutomotion
WHAT DISTINGUISHES 4 STATION SG FLEX FROM 3 MACHINING CENTERS?
| 4 STATION SG FLEX | 3 MACHINING CENTERS |
|---|---|
| 1 single machine capable of producing for 3. Less space used, high productivity | 3 machines, more space needed |
| 1 robot system or 1 operator | 3 robot systems or 3 operators for pieces loading/unloading |
| Complete machining of the piece: several simultaneous machining, less setup time | Secondary machining operation: after each machining the piece is loaded on the following machine, longer setup time |
Energy saving: :
|
Higher energy consumption:
|
| Tool magazine capacity: up to a maximum of 300 tools | Reduced tool magazine capacity |
