Heavy duty laser profiler works through the night
Palletisation and latest control and diagnostics systems enable laser profiling system to cut dumper truck parts under 'lights out' conditions.
Two laser heads are three times better than one
In theory a twin-head laser profiler produces double the output of a 'normal' single-head machine.
Except in this case, it is around three times as productive!
With a worldwide installed base of more the 2000, Trumpf's TC 500R punching machine continues to be the flagship of the range.
Its appeal can largely be attributed to its ability to maintain or improve productivity levels as batch sizes fall - a significant problem faced by many punch press users.
Users of turret machines in particular, who account for the lion's share of TC 500R UK sales so far, report significant improvements in cost efficiency.
The main benefit is substantial reduced set-up times.
This is due to the combination of head rotation - which reduces the number of tools required - and rapid tool exchange, derived from an ability to pre-set fully all tools away from the machine.
Rapid changeover however, is only one of many TC 500R benefits.
Speed of operation, fast hit rates and positioning speed, a large working area and exceptional material utilisation through retractable clamping, all have the their part to play.
So too does head rotation that allows all tools to be rotated.
Now with the introduction of new WindowsT-based software, this already reliable machine can take advantage of Trumpf Telepresence.
Via the built-in modem, Trumpf specialists can remotely interrogate faults on the machine.
In addition to cosmetic changes to the machine such as a new hood for the hydraulic head, the latest model of this workhorse is now available with brush tables for total scratch-free operation with pop-up rollers to aid initial sheet loading. Request a free brochure from Trumpf ...
