PERFORMANCES




• Industrial production – Its reliable and robust design meets the requirements of serial production

where maintenance requirements are higher.

• Speed - It ensures high productivity due to the rapid movements and high acceleration of the fully

exploited robot base due to the low weight and low inertia of the head.

• Precision – The low weight of the head (60 kg), obtains a precision and layup repeatability meeting

the requirements demanded from the aeronautic industry.

• Managed budget – A ratio of quality/productivity/investment to a high level, thanks to the

combination of the robotic base/process.

• Flexibility - They easily adapt to different geometries, different ranges.

• Compactness – Enables the making of complex parts.

• Versatility – It is suitable for industrial applications as well as for development centers, with the

possibility of easily integrating numerous options.

• Know-how of more than ten years in the use of materials ‘of the future’ dry fiber and thermoplastic.
