ASSEMBLY
Screw and nut driving, inserting, mounting and positioning and produce repeatable accurate assembly processes with high precision and high speed is one of SMARTSHIFT key features. With our reliable tool changer clutch you improve product quality and production efficiency.
Palletizing / Packing
Sorting, packaging, labelling and palletizing you need a quick tool changer clutch, that assists different tools to pick up a wide range of materials. Quickly and easily you can redeploy the tool changer across different operations or invest in the automatic tool changer clutch and switch tools without redeploy and hereby making warehousing and supply chain operations faster and more efficient.
MACHINE TENDING
CNC, injection moulding, cutting, metal casting, press and processes can be done easily with tool changer clutch that consistently and repeatedly follow exact processes without risk of errors. Quickly and easily you can redeploy tools to other processes or by using the tool pockets to operate and switch between tasks without redeploy tools.
MATERIAL FINISHING
Painting, polishing, sanding, drilling and milling and other tasks is ideal with a tool changer as it operates with consistently flow and precisely placement. You can easily operate and switch from polishing to painting with the tool pockets. With small batches we can provide you with a robotbase plate, that makes it easy to change work stations without reprogramming the robot.
QUALITY TESTING
Testing, inspection and measuring can be difficult for workers to do repeatedly. With tool changer clutch, you can continually maintain high quality inspection and testing by high precision and consistency. The repeatability is +/- 0,05 mm (50 micron) and giving the stability to automate almost any task.
WELDING
Laser, ultrasonic, soldering and spot welding can be improved by our tool changer that secures high quality and precision. To reduce production downtime you can add our tool pocket, so the robot can operate and switch between tools and tasks autonomously in the production line. Or move the robot to other work stations, where you need application support.
