Tower Shuttle X

Description


TowerShuttle X is a laser marker equipped with XZ axes for marking large parts loaded on the table by a robot. It is a stable, ergonomic system that can be customized by mounting the 90° mounted laser head. This makes marking the sides of pieces fast and easy.

The main advantage of TowerShuttle is its ability to interface with a robot (and/or operator) that loads and unloads the parts outside the marking cabinet, simplifying loading and preventing any risk of collision.

The working table is on a shuttle with a closed-loop electric motor drive that has an integrated encoder located on the two double-slide pre-loaded guides.

Specifically:

  • The part is loaded on the working table by the robot (and/or operator).
  • Sensors detect the correct placement.
  • The part is then moved inside the cabinet and marked immediately.
  • If requested, after marking, the camera tests the code quality.
  • Finally, the part leaves the cabinet and the cycle restarts.

Main features

Easy Loading

The working table moves along the Y axis, allowing for parts to be effortlessly loaded outside with no risk of damage of the system. Either the operator or the robot can work perfectly safely when loading the piece.

X-axis

The X-axis increases the area that can be marked. The stroke of the XZ motorized axis is 500 x 450 mm, and the stork of the shuttle that moves along the Y axis is 550 mm.

90° laser head

With the 90° laser head, the sides of pieces are easy to mark. This is very useful considering the sizes of the pieces that this laser system marks.
