Automation solutions optimize material flow, improve machine use and increase work and process reliability. The building blocks are modular so that the degree of automation can be adapted at a later date. The solutions range from simple handling to fully automatic operation.
The ByTrans Cross from Bystronic (Elgin, IL) is a modular automation system for loading and unloading laser cutting systems that can be expanded at any time. Complete accessibility of the laser system enables automated material handling in the smallest space. Short loading and unloading cycle times provide consistency and speed.
ByTrans Cross supports large parts removal and selection of residual sheets. It’s available for use with the new BySmart Fiber, BySprint Fiber and ByStar Fiber laser cutting systems.
Integrated Control on the Touch Screen
Both the ByTrans Cross and the optional add-on feature, BySort ,are controlled using the Fiber laser cutter’s touch screen and Bystronic’s ByVision Cutting user interface. ByVision Cutting integrates all the cutting processes and the connected automation solutions. During everyday production this allows laser cutting and the automated material feeding and removal process to be closely interlinked. Today, no user should waste time, walk long distances, and carry out unnecessary procedures, just because the laser cutting system and the connected automation solution have to be operated using separate terminals. After all, for the operator, automation also means convenience.
