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!
A conveyor system, consisting of gripper tongs and a conveyor table, transports the scrap skeleton from the punching machines and the combination punching/laser machines to the ShearMaster, which automatically crushes the skeleton.
With the new ShearMaster, users can increase the productivity of their punching and combo-machines.
There's no need to handle the often cumbersome and unstable scrap skeletons.
The space needed for transport paths is reduced for companies, and the scrap can be easily sorted in next to no time.
Another advantage of the ShearMaster is that the scrap skeletons are completely crushed during downtime.
Crushing the scrap skeleton into pieces no greater than 400 x 100mm allows containers to hold more, thereby reducing the frequency of container exchanges.
The ShearMaster crushes a large-sized panel in three minutes - a medium-sized one in only two.
Moreover, smaller sized crap often gets a better prize on the market.
The delivery scope of the ShearMaster includes the tried-and-true GripMaster (which deposits the scrap skeletons on the conveyor table), scrap skeleton tongs with sensors, a conveyor table and stripper as well as a scrap container including level control. Request a free brochure from Trumpf ...
