FlexLoader™ FP 800

Function package for flexible machine tool tending

FlexLoader FP 800 is a very compact solution comprised of a robot, a control system, a camera tower and a podium.

It is a fully automated feeder for all kinds of workpieces, picking straight from the pallet as long as the workpieces are semi-oriented or arranged in layers, with or without dividers.

Thanks to the high standardization of all FlexLoader function packages, FlexLoader FP 800 can easily be adapted to all kinds of post- and pre-processes such as pallet handling, deburring, air cleaning, workpiece marking, washing and quality control.
