Flyer-Automatic Flying Slab Loader/Unloader for Marble, Granite and Artificial Stones Working Lines

FLYER is a loading/unloading flying robot designed to handle stone slabs (marble, granite, or stone material). It can realize the “book match” process, reassembling them as they where before loading, without using rotating roller conveyor. By using this robot on resin lines it is possible the direct loading of the slabs onto the trays. This option is extremely important in case of fragile or fractured material. FLYER can be supplied with GRAB system which allows, in cooperation with suction cups, safe loading of travertine slabs and fragile materials. FLYER is a further step of Prometec loaders. It has been designed for such cases where the available space on the ground is really small. FLYER for loading operation, (such as for all automatic Prometec loading machines), is equipped with a detaching device avoiding to load two or more “stuck” slabs. More over this machine uses, during the loading operation, a weighing system which reduces the risk for loading more than one slab at a time. All the movements of FLYER are controlled by means of inverter and by encoder, therefore all movements are extremely smooth and exact. FLYER is a machine easy to set up for any kind of requirements by means of a wide colors touch screen. Versions: FLYER 1200: standard model capable to serve most of processing line with needed speed and safety FLYER 54: version with increased number of suction cups designed for fragile and delicate materials typical in resin lines FLYER 80: version with maximum number of suction cups and twin vacuum pump for special materials and applications Prometec is anyway able to design and develop customized version accordingly with client requirements.
