UNIFLEX
Flexible drilling and driving of eccentric connectors
The UNIFLEX trough-feed drilling machine enables double-sided drilling and the insertion of dowels or other furniture fasteners, such as eccentric connectors, for flexible production down to batch size 1, as well as for small quantities.
The high-speed servo positioning axes for width adjustment and the machining units ensure minimal setup times on the UNIFLEX. In addition, each workpiece is machined with pinpoint accuracy using the NC control—from rapid transport to precise positioning and efficient drilling and driving.
The insertion station, which is specifically designed for a particular type of fastener (e.g., Minifix or Rafix), consists of a special vibrator conveyor and the insertion unit. The fasteners are sorted in the vibrator conveyor so that they arrive at the insertion unit correctly aligned and can thus be inserted precisely into the workpiece.
The UNIFLEX can operate as a standalone machine (one-man operation), a robotic cell, or as part of a production line.
