In today’s fast-paced manufacturing environment, staying competitive means doing more with less—less downtime, less labor strain, and less complexity in your automation setup. That’s where the RoboJob Turn-Assist Essential Mini shines.
Designed specifically for fixed-headstock lathes like those from Tsugami, this compact, robotic part loading and unloading solution proves that size isn’t everything. Despite its minimal footprint, the Turn-Assist Essential Mini delivers maximum productivity, enabling manufacturers to increase spindle utilization and maintain consistent output—even in the face of labor shortages.
Engineered for Efficiency
This standard, pre-engineered machine tending solution comes equipped with a reliable FANUC industrial robot, dual pneumatic grippers, and a configurable stacking table that accommodates a wide range of part sizes. When the robot is either loading raw stock or unloading finished parts from your lathe, the system keeps your operation running smoothly and safely, thanks to its integrated safety laser scanner.
Need to switch jobs quickly? The intuitive RoboJob software walks you through setup in minutes—just input your part specs, spindle selections, and program details. The system automatically determines the optimal part layout for your specific job, maximizing the number of queued parts and minimizing operator intervention.
