Modular aluminium jigs speed sub-assembly build
One of the worlds' leading helicopter manufacturers, have accelerated helicopter sub-assembly throughput by using an aluminium profile system-build jigging system.
A Base Profile made of aluminium with a modular height dimension of 40 mm, which can be attached to any item profile with a line 8 system groove, acts as a receptacle for an individually printed label and protects it with two side covers and a transparent cover film.
Replacing the generously sized labels later is easy: simply slide them out of the holder sideways and insert a new one.
Apart from the ready-made holder with a width of 160mm (normally sufficient for most labels), the building kit system also provides for label holders of any required length.
In this way, label holders covering the full width of a shelf can be created as easily as small part number labels. Request a free brochure from Machine Building Systems ...
