KTECH X Model CNC Transfer Machines are specifically designed to meet the need for high-volume, high-precision machining of parts, especially for mass production in the Automotive, Plumbing Equipment, and Gas Fittings industries. They offer robotic performance support, free from human loading and control errors, enabling high-volume and precise machining of parts by removing material within tight tolerances. Furthermore, by adapting advanced smart cameras to the system, it's possible to achieve easy part-to-part transition and quality control. These CNC Transfer machines, operated with either a single or dual robot, are primarily used for machining parts weighing under 2 kg and produced in millions of units.
Compared to a manually fed transfer machine, our CNC Transfer machines in this model provide up to 50% extra capacity, directly proportional to the reduced process time of your parts. This significantly lowers your part costs and allows you to produce many more parts with the same number of machines. Especially in 24-hour operation periods, they provide substantial capacity increases, amortizing their cost in a much more efficient and economical timeframe. Moreover, thanks to KESTECH's unique design advantage, these machines offer highly compact dimensions, providing up to 100% space savings for customers with limited space compared to equivalent machines.
The unit structure, entirely driven by absolute servos, its drum featuring High Speed Cyclo technology, and perfect synchronization coupled with COGNEX smart cameras, enable it to perform processes like part position, weight, and rough dimension control. With automation integrated with Mitsubishi 6-axis robots in single or dual configurations, these machines excel in delivering high-capacity and controlled production, free from human errors and capacity limitations.
These models can be produced with various configurations: single or dual robot operation, with or without camera control, fully automated silo feeding, vibratory bowl feeding, or sliding table feeding. They range from a 2-station drum with 2 units and 4 axes (vertical or horizontal) up to an 18-station drum with 40 units and 128 axes, depending on the body structure. The PRO and MICRON Unit Families can be used in this model, aligning with the requirements of the chip removal processes. Its compatible structure can accommodate almost any type of raw material (brass, steel, aluminum, etc.), typically handling forged, cast, or cut parts under 2 kg, thus meeting a wide range of needs. Additionally, thanks to the design entirely developed by KESTECH that integrates the machine and robotic structure onto a single chassis, it requires significantly less space and its calibration requirements are highly minimized.
