This ZX-2543-5 is another example of the flexibility of our modular design. This standard system has been modified to include a custom jig. Working in tandem with our Psy-Winder 5-axis cutting head, multiple 3D parts can be cut on the back portion of the tank using only one part program. With custom jigs, you can be sure your parts will be in the exact same place every time, and with four jigs, you save time with the process being automated to cut all four consecutively. Custom jigs provide a convenient solution for mounting oddly shaped material to standard grates while also increasing the life of the grates by providing a more ideal mounting solution. Even with the custom jigs in the tank, the flexibility of our standard ZX-2543-5 is not lost. With job shop grates in the front of the tank, standard materials and parts can still be cut with ease.

If you have a material that requires a custom jig and 5-axis automation, give us a call and see what solution we can provide for you!
