10 TOOL MANAGEMENT Central tool logistic automation is a system for centrally delivering and managing cutting tools for CNC machines. It enables the use of small tool magazines, eliminates human errors and reduces capital investment in tools. Machine control integration enables a machine tool to start machining even if all the required tools are not in its magazine. Only the first tools to be used in the NC program must be loaded. Tool automation delivers the rest during machining. FEATURE CENTRAL TOOL STORAGE (CTS) GANTRY TOOL STORAGE (GTS) Tools Up to 4,000 Up to 1,500 Robots Tool carriage capacity 5 5 Max tool weight 35 kg 35 kg Max tool length 650 mm * 650 mm * * Customization available Full tool life utilization The automated tool logistic system provides full tool life utilization. The tools are transported for maintenance at just the right time not too early, not too late. Larger amount of tools available If your production requires more tools than the number of spaces in the tool magazine, automated tool storage relieves your shop floor operators of repetitive tool carrying tasks. By equipping the machine tools with smaller tool magazines you also reduce investment costs. Tool usage simulation Fastems MMS5 software simulates optimal work queues for your machine tools. This functionality also applies to the cutting tools. With tool automation you can minimize the number of tools needed and calculate precisely what will happen next. You don t need to reserve all tools required for a specific job and machine tool at the beginning of a machining process. Share tools between CNC machines It s possible to reduce the number of identical tools to help cut down the total amount of tools used, without sacrificing production flexibility. This is especially helpful with expensive, specialized cutting tools. Real time information of needed tools MMS5 tool management streamlines the flow of information. It eliminates paperwork for tool differences or future tool replacements. Plus you have full integration with the FMS control, including priority settings and standardized interfaces for many presetting devices. Extend your lights out production period When cutting tools are no longer a production bottleneck, you can extend your lights out period even further. Central tool storage (CTS) places a tool storage container on the factory floor next to the machine tools it services (as pictured above). A dedicated robot manages the tools in the storage container while one or two additional robots move on guideways above the machines to place the tools into the appropriate machine tool holders, and return replaced tools to storage Gantry tool storage (GTS) places a tool storage container above the machine tools and uses a single robot to both manage tool storage and to transfer tools between the machines and the tool storage container.

14 Robotic finishing cells The right spindle type for the right process Our automated solutions for grinding, polishing, deburring, brushing and more deliver perfect results, every time. Robotic finishing cells work continuously and reliably to produce the maximum number of precisely finished parts on each shift. It's a brilliant finish to your metal-cutting process. Ergonomically better Finishing tasks are among manufacturing s most challenging, often performed in dusty conditions while in uncomfortable positions and using noisy, vibrating tools. Having robots perform these jobs frees your workers for more productive and less physically taxing activities. Consistent quality Because industrial robots are highly repeatable and reliable, Fastems robotic solutions ensure that your 1,000th part is just as good as your first. The best of both worlds The finishing or deburring process is always tailored to your specific application. That s why Fastems offers both pneumatic and electric tooling for maximum process efficiency.

For example: part castings Each spindle typically has one tool Wide selection of spindles available for different applications Typically for applications where tool amount is moderate Electric spindles One spindle can handle many tools For applications requiring a large amount of tools or where new tool implementation is frequent Good spindle power output Traceability of control variables Programmable rpm Optional accessories Measuring probe for part referencing Dust extraction systems Machine vision for optical inspection Force control systems Robocoat for dusty application Coolant system for wet processes Quality control systems Fire suppression systems ATEX proof

15 MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS FOR HIGH MIX PRODUCTION The heart of the system is the Fastems control software. It enables parallel manufacturing of multiple orders while ensuring that production runs uninterrupted. Management of resources The system control makes it easy to handle the various manufacturing resources needed. Missing resources are indicated, thus enabling trouble-free manufacturing. Easier production planning Our control system makes is easy to plan the production for the integrated system. You have an overview of all orders in the system and the necessary resources for each. Optimizing output without losing flexibility The system can adapt to changes in the manufacturing environment. This means, for example, that an order with missing resources does not stop the line completely, instead the next order is processed. Integration of manufacturing processes You can integrate many processes under one system. This helps, for example, to eliminate unnecessary storages and transfers between processes. You can achieve extended unmanned periods without making resource planning more complicated. By using an automated material storage system, you can extend unmanned production time to an entire weekend, for example. Advanced software options combined with system hardware forms a true productivity solution for high mix manufacturing.
