Robotflex
ROBOTFLEX, the range of robots for machine tools, designed by TECAUMA to make machining easier.
TECAUMA has designed its own range of robots in order to load and unload your machine tools, called ROBOTFLEX.
Installed on lathes or machining centers of any brand, ROBOTFLEX automates your production from 5 parts.
The ROBOTFLEX Standard range
With our ROBOTFLEX range, machinists can directly load raw parts into machine tools. This solution is indeed capable of automating all machining phases for a single part.
ROBOTFLEX enables the seamless chaining of machining operations on raw stock of various sizes. This capability allows for the production of small part series while significantly enhancing the cell autonomy. The number of parts per series can range from just a few to several dozen. The robot automatically selects the appropriate machining programs for the machine tool and can also schedule periodic quality checks when needed.
After machining, the ROBOTFLEX robotic arm can flip the machined parts to prepare them for the next operation. By chaining different series, the machine tool spindle can operate for extended periods, potentially running through an entire night of continuous production.

What do our customer think?
"Here we are dealing with great precision all the time and with ROBOTFLEX,
we no longer hesitate to launch our series of parts every evening
because we are certain to find them the next morning finished and compliant.
In addition, I am very happy to be able to chain milling operations with such loading precision:
the ROBOTFLEX ensures 2/100ths of repositioning without worries".
Mr AMIAUD, FIDEMECA company.
"We are constantly loading the ROBOTFLEX because its implementation is very simple and fast.
The goal: to make the spindle of our 5-axis machining center turn as much as possible.
We do not always have specific 5-axis parts in our order book,
but we load the machine with simpler parts and often for small quantities.
The important thing is to take advantage of this flexible tool to reduce our costs and our delivery times for our customers."
Mr. DROUET, PREMECA company
"We machine parts in large series, with fairly short cycle times.
The ROBOTFLEX has allowed us to free up operators who were only doing machine feeding,
to redirect them towards adjustment/programming. In addition, we have doubled the working time on the robotic center."
Mr. Fabrice MORTELETTE, MORTELETTE company
"These investments were very well received and even eagerly awaited.
The ROBOTFLEX have brought us advantages in terms of autonomy, improved quality, increased load capacity, and flexibility."
Mr. NICOLLEAU, NICOLLEAU Usinage company
