Robotic cutting systems: plasma & laser machines

Automated robotic cutting systems

Cutting is an essential process in industrial production to create parts that meet specific dimensions and designs, but traditional methods often face limitations in precision, material waste, and tool wear. Arcos robotic cutting systems address these challenges, offering a range of advanced solutions:

– Cutting with Abrasive Disc: ideal for particularly hard and tough materials such as Inconel®, cast iron, and heat-treated steels. This method ensures efficient cutting for highly durable materials.

– Cutting with Tape or Special Blades: designed for softer materials like steel, wood, brass, and aluminum, this solution offers gentle precision, reducing waste and tool wear.

– Plasma Cutting: suited for materials with complex geometries that can’t be easily cut using blades or discs. While plasma cutting is effective for intricate shapes, careful process evaluation is needed due to the high temperatures, which may alter the material’s metallographic properties.

Arcos’ robotic systems provide a cutting-edge solution to modern industrial needs, ensuring high-quality results while optimizing production efficiency.

Precision and efficiency

Arcos’ robotic cutting systems are built for precision, delivering repeatable and highly accurate results that eliminate errors typically associated with manual or traditional methods. This level of accuracy ensures each cut meets strict tolerances, which is crucial in industries where even small deviations can result in product failures or expensive rework.

By automating the cutting process, Arcos systems enable continuous, fatigue-free operation, which accelerates production and optimizes material use. This results in faster lead times, minimized waste, and significant cost savings, all while enhancing the sustainability of your production process.

Versatility across materials

Arcos’ robotic cutting systems are designed to work with a wide variety of materials, making them a versatile solution for manufacturers. Whether dealing with durable metals like Inconel® or more delicate materials such as aluminum, wood, or brass, Arcos provides specialized cutting technologies to ensure precision and efficiency for each material type.

This material versatility helps manufacturers streamline operations, allowing one robotic system to handle diverse cutting tasks and minimizing downtime. The result is a more flexible, efficient, and cost-effective production process.

CUTTING

The range of automatic machines of Arcos also offers robotic systems for cutting, in particular:

Cutting with abrasive disc: it’s used for cutting particularly hard and tenacious materials, such as Inconel®, cast iron and heat treated steels;
Cutting with tape or special blades: suitable for softer materials such as steel, wood, brass, aluminum;
Plasma cutting: suitable for cuts in which the geometry of the product doesn’t allow the use of blades or discs. Plasma cutting can alter the material’s metallographic properties due to high temperatures, an accurate evaluation of the process is therefore necessary.
