Web-exclusive New Product: Automated trimming cell

Equipped with a KMT AccuTrim R-44 robot mounted inside a steel enclosure that's capable of rotating parts weighing up to half a ton and measuring at least 3 by 5 ft, the versatile new RoboTrim RT-1002 turnkey routing and trimming system from KMT Robotic Solutions Inc. (Auburn Hills, MI) reportedly can get your parts finished and out of the cell in less than 3 seconds. Units can be customized to meet your specific trimming needs. A second robot or an automatic tool change option can be added to further reduce cycles and add even greater part size and trimming flexibilities.

Also, KMT's patented compliant knife can be incorporated into the tool changer to turn the system from a router-trimmer into a deflashing cell. And its RouterVac high-volume vacuum system improves part quality by holding the part securely to the fixture while removing chips from the trimming area. With KMT's TrimPro software, you can create your own programs offline, build virtual workcells, and simulate and optimize the cycle times of existing cells without building a prototype or taking the system down from production.
