Barrel sanding machine
Project goals:
Automation of a manual process through the design and manufacture of ad hoc system:
- Design and manufacture of an automation for the automatic sanding of wooden barrels, in different shapes and dimensions, fully configurable from user interface
- Reduction of cycle times compared to market standards
- Flexible solution, ideal for frequent changes of product dimensions and shapes
