Alpine Metal Tech is going a new way in the field of plate marking.

Alpine Metal Tech, a long term partner of SSAB, supplied two fully automatic CombiJet paint marking robots and two fully automatic MX needle marking robots for the plate mill in Raahe. Marking robots provide a better insight into the plate mill line and also facilitate the workflow and maintenance of the entire line. The use of marking robots increases the positioning accuracy of the marking on the plates and the associated cycle time. Furthermore, individual customer requirements can be enabled.

 

This results in the following advantages:

  • Better insight into the plate mill line and simplified maintenance due to installation of the robots beside the line instead of a conventional bridge type machine
  • Highest availability through high standard industrial robot technology in combination with Alpine Metal Tech proven marking technology
  • Positioning accuracy of the sheets is less relevant, it is compensated by the robot
  • Flexibility with regard to specific customer requirements
  • Full redundancy - 2 robots are arranged opposite each other
  • Easy maintenance: the marking robot moves the marking unit to an easy accessible service position beside the line
