Router Trimming Solution

Robotic Production Technology (RPT) introduced a new portable, pre-engineered router trimming and knife deflashing solution designed specifically for the plastics industry. The RoboTrim™ RT-400 system is a portable trimming system that can be used by thermoformers, injection molders, blow molders and rotational molders. The flexible machine features a servo-controlled table that has the ability to rotate the part as the robot is trimming. This allows each side of the part to be trimmed in a very compact work cell. This modular system is mounted on a single base and can be easily moved to various locations around a manufacturing facility with quick set-up.

The key benefits to the RoboTrim RT-400 system are portability, part height capability of 36”, increased throughput, more uptime due to high reliability, improved flexibility and enhanced safety.

Options include automatic tool change that enables a six-second tool change time, alternative spindles in single- and dual-ended configuration, , patent pending RPT Compliant Knife and part fixtures designed and built by RPT. Manufacturers can also add RPT/FANUC Accuracy Enhancement software tools and RPT TrimPro™ offline programming software.
