The LoadMate Plus robot cell provides flexible solutions for traditionally high-mix, low-volume facilities to introduce automation. It is designed with mobility and flexibility in mind. It automates the task of loading and removing parts from a machine tool and can be mounted next to one machine, between two machines and otherwise moved around a facility as jobs require. When this cell is paired with the company’s M8 series CNC, operators can use the direct robot control (DRC) feature to also control and program the robot with menus and G-code from the same screen used for the machine tool.
