Router Trimming Solution

Robotic Production Technology (RPT) introduced the RPT RoboTrim RT-1000 router trimming solution, designed for thermoformers and rotational molders.

The machine is designed to use one or two FANUC M-16iB robots and an aux-axis servocontrolled 10’ rotating table. RPT developed application-specific software tools – RPT RouterWare – that make the system easy to use. The system comes equipped with the FANUC Robotics iPendant and features a three-second index of the 10’ diameter rotating table with a 1,000 pound fixture and part capacity on each side. Its single base construction makes it easy to install and move within a manufacturing facility.

Options include addition of a second robot, increased part height and automatic tool change. A DVD and a technical datasheet are available.

Robotic Production Technology recently signed an exclusive agreement to continue its role as FANUC Robotics’ exclusive partner for routing and waterjet cutting automation for non-metallic materials in the Americas.
