The robot cell can be accessed easily and safely through the sliding doors.
Sliding doors
The robot cell is equipped with an 18-inch touchscreen.
The easily interpretable interface allows an operator to control the robot after just half a day of training.
Touchscreen
All our sanding cells are equipped with our in-house designed Maxerade® unit.

Options

Synchronous turntable
Adding a turntable increases the robot arm’s reach and significantly reduces programming time.
Indexing table
Instead of sliding doors, we can install an indexing table with two synchronous turntables of fixed tables, or a combination of both.
Tool change station
The robot is capable of automatic tool changes, enabling sequential execution of different grinding operations.
