Tezmaksan has launched three new iterations of its CubeBOX automation solutions that enable operator-free production in tending CNC machine tools.CubeBOX systems integrate with any control unit and any robot of the user’s choice, regardless of manufacturer or communication protocol.
Among the launches is the CubeBOX Pallet Pool, also referred to as Pallet Tower and Pallet Changer. The system is for automating CNC machining centres with limited floor space and can manage up to 24 pallets and 16 tools. Pallets are arranged in a compact circle in front of the machine, using a six-axis robot to load and unload into the system. The equipment reduces reliance on operators for loading and unloading, and can enable up to 24-hour operator-free operation.
Also now available is the CubeBOX RT Stacker (RT-S). The RT-S is suitable for lathes and vertical machining centres. The system uses two pallets for part loading and can tend one or two CNC machines. A key advantage of this model is the ability to stack two pallets on top of one another, enabling higher throughput without any increase in footprint.
Last but not least is the CubeBOX Space Cabinet, whichhas three drawers for holding product which is unloaded using a six-axis robot. Using this system, an operator does not have to restock the system regularly. When restocking is necessary, the CubeBOX Space Cabinet’s design allows drawers to be rolled into a reachable position for easy parts supply.
According to Tezmaksan, CubeBOX can increase night shift productivity by up to 50%, enabling an average return on investment (ROI) of eight months.
