Eurolaser, a specialist for laser cutting systems, introduces an automatic shuttle system that makes handling many times more efficient.
The principle is very simple. The tables are changed over within a few seconds allowing the laser cutting process to be continued with no downtimes. While one table is being processed the finished materials can be unloaded from the other table and this reloaded again from an ergonomically favourable position.
Further automation
This principle was developed a few years ago and has been implemented successfully ever since. The existing shuttle table version has now undergone further automation. Just the press of a button is all it takes to release the newly loaded table. Changeover starts automatically once the cutting process on the second table is completed. The new material is cut automatically while at the same time the operator can unload the finished parts without any interruption in the cutting process.
