The three spindle machining by Porta Solutions has been a highlight of the BIE 2016, the Brescia Industrial Exhibition held last may in the north of Italy. The 3 spindles Multicenter machining center by Porta Solutions is ideal for companies which have to produce medium-small lot sizes, with frequent production changes but also for high volume production, representing a real alternative to twin-spindle machines.
The machining center offer great performances in the automotive industry, already employed for FCA, Harley Davidson and Range Rover, allowing rapid change of production in 15 minutes. The machine enables concrete optimization of workforce resources, automation, tooling/fixturing costs, floor space required and part re-clamping errors, has a flexible standard concept and can be delivered in 3 months. During the italian metalworking exhibition, visitors also had the opportunity to be involved in a human-robot challenge in a golf match, thanks to Comau robot Racer 7.4.1, while Tiesse Robot provided attendees a sweet souvenir of the trade fair, interacting with a robot composing the writing BIE with chocolates.
