Depending on the number of tools in your workshop, you can equip your CNC machine with an 8-, 12-, or 16-position rotary tool changer.
The rotary tool changer moves along the X-axis, and all positions are equipped with an anti-crash control sensor to ensure a smooth tool change.

The machine is standard equipped with a preparation to manually pick up aggregates in pre-set positions, in accordance with the selected aggregate with a specific operation.

The double pressure roller over the entire machine depth!
These pressure bars push your panel firmly onto the spoil plate. This is used when working in package (e.g. 3 panels on top of each other) and with very porous panels.

The automatic control of the extraction nozzle alternately allocates the full extraction power to either the drill head or the milling unit, depending on the active unit.
This ensures an optimal and efficient extraction result.

The High Flow matrix grid table is made of wear-resistant HPL (High Pressure Laminate).
The 30 x 30 mm grid is equipped with additional grooves that ensure a higher vacuum flow, resulting in optimal fixation of your workpieces.
This matrix grid table also allows working with specific vacuum cups, providing greater processing flexibility.
Multiple vacuum zones are automatically controlled according to the size of the panel.

The vacuum zones of a CNC nesting machine are designed according to the work area dimensions and the most common sheet formats, ensuring both large and small sheets are securely and efficiently held in place.

The VACUBOOST system uses two vacuum pumps. The first pump keeps the workpiece securely in position. During machining, the milling cutter moves across the table from one vacuum zone to another.
The second pump, through the intelligent VacuBoost system, provides an additional concentrated vacuum precisely where the milling head is performing the operation.

This horizontal light curtain detects interruptions in the light beams and stops the machine when an object or person is detected.

A light curtain is a safety feature consisting of a transmitter, a receiver, and non or multiple mirrors, which together create an invisible safety barrier around the machine.
This light curtain detects interruptions in the light beams and stops the machine when an object or person is detected.

Contact mats at the front of the CNC machining center serve as an essential safety system.
When touched, they detect the presence of a person or object and immediately stop the machine.

The fencing provides a robust enclosure on maximum of 3 sides of the CNC machining center.
The open side is equipped with another safety system of choice, in according with CE regulations.
This prevents the operator from unintentionally entering the danger zone of the machine.
Of course, it is possible to provide a safety door in the fence to allow controlled access to the machine.

Pressure cushions, at the front and/or rear, of the CNC machining center serve as an essential safety system.
When touched, they detect the presence of a person or object and immediately stop the machine.

A security system with a zone scanner is an advanced safety solution for CNC machining centers. The scanner, mounted on the chassis, detects people or objects within the safety zone of the scanner. This ensures a safe working environment without physical barriers, improving accessibility and efficiency.

A solid table on the infeed side of the nesting cnc machining centre equipped with an HPL top.
This table is suitable for plate per plate loading, manual or an automatic system.

A full pack of panels can be easily placed on this hydraulic lift table using a forklift, thanks to the cross beams.
Multiple alignment stops with steel rollers in the Y-direction and a corner stop ensure precise positioning of your panel for processing.

Label X is AES' combined alignment and labelling station. This system precisely positions the plates on the infeed table before applying a personalised label in the correct location. This dual functionality optimises both positioning accuracy and plate traceability in the production process.

Thanks to the alignment robots, the alignment process runs smoothly without operator intervention.
The robots ensure that the panel is precisely aligned against the vertical studs with steel rollers.

The loading unit, mounted on the machine bridge, transfers the panel from the infeed table to the nesting table using multiple vacuum suction cups. This ensures a smooth material transfer within the CNC nesting machining center.

After machining, the push-off and cleaning unit (mounted on the the machine gantry) removes dust from the workpieces and transfers them to the outfeed conveyor.

The conveyor belt transports finished parts from the machine to the operator.
This ensures the efficient and orderly disposal of parts, keeping the production flow running smoothly.

The label printer at the outfeed conveyor is used to manually apply labels to workpieces. This ensures clear identification and traceability within the production process, reducing errors and improving efficiency.
