Flexible Manufacturing System for Heavy Pallet Loads
July 1, 2013
The FPC-7500 is a single-level flexible manufacturing system specifically designed to handle 1,000 mm and 1,250 mm pallets where large load capacity is required. "Fastems has replaced the typical crane-style pallet changer with a dual-rail guided pallet change vehicle featuring a low-profile design," said a company spokesperson. "This system accommodates loads up to 7,500 kg, heights up to 2,300 mm and diameters up to 2,300 mm. The standard FPC-7500 is configured with a load station and four pallet positions. However, the unit is easily expandable, either initially or in the field, into configurations of six, eight, 10 or 12 pallet positions."
The FPC-7500 comes equipped with the latest Fastems Manufacturing Management System (MMS) Cell Controller. Fastems MMS5 software can extend from a single manufacturing cell to a full featured shop-wide system, can be integrated with other manufacturing plant software such as ERP and MRP systems and is fully compatible with MT Connect. The FPC-7500 can be installed with a new machine investment or can be added to an existing machining center.
