Vegapack

A 90° cutting centre built exclusively to cut aluminium profile bundles. The cnc machining centre is composed of several interconnected units which allow a single operator to manage the entire work cycle, from the loading to the unloading phase of the custom-cut bundles. Aided by an optional copy router lift, the operator places the bundles on the step-by-step accumulation-operated loader bench (max. 4-5 bundles). A motor-driven roller then brings the bundle onto the cutting unit, which carries out an initial trimming of the bundle and then the subsequent customised cutting (work cycle set by software). Cutting swarf is discharged automatically by displacement of the central roller conveyor applied to the cutting unit. The pieces cut off from the bundle are evacuated from the cutting zone by the unloading table roller and picked up by belts to be unloaded manually by the operator.

Loading/unloading magazine
The workpiece loading and unloading magazine is equipped with an automatic belt-driven translation system with sensor-regulated step-by-step accumulation operation. This enables continuous machining, reducing cycle time. The unloading magazine, available in two sizes, allows the accumulation of finished workpieces up to a maximum of 5 bundles, and a special sensor signals its saturation to the operator to allow manual unloading.

Motorised roller conveyor
A motorised roller conveyor, controlled by sensors, enables the movement of the bundles from the loading magazine to the cutting unit and finally to the unloading of the cut workpieces. In the basic version of the machine, without a loading magazine, the roller conveyor is the loading area for the profile bundle.

Reference stop
The reference stop is mounted on a carriage with numerically controlled (CNC) positioning. The material being processed is pulled over by motorised rollers and clamped with horizontal and vertical vices to make the cut to size.

Automatic swarfs unloading
Cutting swarfs are automatically evacuated by the special central roller conveyor, located between the loading and unloading areas, attached to the cutting unit. At the time of unloading the workpieces, the roller conveyor slides off, dropping the waste material into a container below. In case the blank is too long, it is evacuated regularly to the unloading magazine.

Cutting unit
The cutting unit consists of a single-headed, front-mounted, hydro-pneumatically actuated cutting-off machine, equipped with a 550 mm Widia blade with a 90° cut. The machining cycle can be optimised by creating cutting lists, thereby reducing scrap and cycle times for workpieces loading-unloading.

Label printer (Optional)

The industrial label printer allows each cut profile to be identified with identifying features from the cutting list. In addition, barcode printing enables easy identification of the profile itself, which is particularly useful for subsequent machining steps on Machining Centres or assisted assembly lines.
