Fastems LLC’s FMS One is a configurable machine tool pallet automation system. The system is built from standard modules that are designed for fast delivery and easy operation.
The system features increased modularity that enables deployment and adaptability. Standard modules reduce equipment delivery and implementation lead times and enable custom fitting of automation to specific end user needs.
Greater adaptability also includes expanded access to a range of load handlers such as cranes and robots that can handle workpieces from 0.1 kg to 2,500 kg. Smaller shopfloor footprints and more spacious pallet storage maximize space utilization. A design driver is improved ergonomics, including lower system reaches that free operators from working in difficult positions.
