The Evolution of Pattern Making!
Industry leaders Special Patterns utilising their in-house robotics division have developed this robot system to advance pattern making techniques. Combining robotic hotwire cutting and machining / milling of EPS foam on the same system with through tool and around tool dust extraction.
All this made possible with offline programming software SprutCam robot. The robot is KUKA KR120 AA with KUKA.CNC controller.

Awesome Advanced Manufacturing, Excellent beginning new Automation Manufacturing tool more than conventional CNC 5 axes, implement arm Robot is more than 6 axes on Manufacturing Hybrid system.

@specialpatterns7330 7 лет назад

+Mike Coronel That's right! This new setup we have developed can greatly reduced the cost associated with pattern making compared with traditional CNC machines. Opening up new potential markets and construction techniques.

@mikeangelcoronel9146 7 лет назад

Special Patters Excellent Job !! Congrats, Reduced Time and costs. Wonderful Technologies Advanced, We planing new step on Manufacturing Automation Industry. You are proud of your results.

where we can get the dust extraction system? any link?

@alsaudiafiberglassmardan671 5 лет назад

I need this machine Can you provide the details

@wolfgangouille 4 года назад

Is it a trex neck?

@UtOhh Год назад

Where do i buy a hotwire attachment like that?

@repareerjeventilatie8576 3 года назад

Would like to know what kind of dust cyclone you use. Is it working good for styrofoam parts. I know is is difficult to extract the particles cause of the weight of it. It would be helpful.

@specialpatterns7330 3 года назад

That's a clear vue cyclone. But any high volume low pressure system will do

Hi there ! I work as a freelance sculptor in Hungary. I use a robot for stone sculpture milling and sometimes for milling EPS to create a base form for further modelling. May I ask from which company do you buy the milling bit ? I have a KRC 210 for milling with ISO 40 cone spindle. I have plenty of diamond tools for stone milling, but sometimes I would need an effective tool for EPS. Any help is appreciated ! Thanks !

Email me. robots@specialpatterns.com.au

Looking for setup prices on a kuka robot for milling foam with turntable. Also could use your mill bit resource. Email is rhinocustoms@gmail.com

@paulbains9152 4 года назад

What kind of glue were they using to cement the blocks together , most glues make residue , and cause inclusions ? Probably a trade secret ?

@gregm5636 3 года назад

i think just a spray foam, then its all basically foam

@coreywong 6 лет назад

how do you attach the foam to the rotary table? we are running a similar setup workshop as a design company in Taiwan, and work holding bothering me a lot.

@specialpatterns7330 6 лет назад

That would be a trade secret! We do offer a workshop in robotic fabrication, contact robots@specialpatterns.com.au for more info

@conorfitzpatrickdesign9616 4 года назад

Looks like a vacuum table. The surface the foam sits on looks like MDF. You get vacuum tables on many CNC machines.

@coreywong 4 года назад

@@conorfitzpatrickdesign9616 thank you!!!

@specialpatterns7330 4 года назад

We don't use vacuum with foam. Too unreliable.

@bhavinnagda4167 2 года назад

what is the reach of this robot ?

@Economia_Circular Год назад

I need a machines similar to cardboard, it is possible?

@lalitvikamshi9432 Год назад

Which software you are using for this kind of cutting plan

@alexandergroshev8064 10 месяцев назад

Sprutcam x robot

@jsjsjhcnznznz1552 5 лет назад

We want to buy this please

@nagolhayze9366 2 года назад

Amazing to see this technology at work.Thank you. Ps. That music is highly irritating 🤦‍♂️

@specialpatterns7330 Год назад

sorry!

@thecynicalafro160 6 лет назад

is this a service or are these machines for sale? i'm looking to use this for my kitcars

@specialpatterns7330 6 лет назад

Both! We have a pattern making business and a robot system making business under the one roof.

@thecynicalafro160 6 лет назад

Thanks for replying. Any rough estimates how much such a tool will cost me?

@specialpatterns7330 6 лет назад

TheCynicalAfro 101 depends on size. Contact robots@specialpatterns.com.au for more

@dmitriicham9067 6 лет назад

What other materials can be processed?

@specialpatterns7330 6 лет назад

The hot wire is limited to foams that melt, for other materials a fast wire or bandsaw can be used. The robot milling can process soft material up to aluminum.

@dmitriicham9067 6 лет назад

What is the cost for processing foam, wood, gypsum?

@mamaslostsoul 6 лет назад

whats the density of EPS/foam used !? btw, great work

@specialpatterns7330 6 лет назад

+Prasan Veni Sorry mate, it's a trade secret!

@mamaslostsoul 6 лет назад

Oh fine. no worries and tks for reply. but can you tell if 40 kg/m^3 (2.5 lb/ft^3) is millable. cos i have a block and intend to try some hobby stuff with ball miller.

@specialpatterns7330 6 лет назад

+Prasan Veni yes 40kg /m3 will be fine

@mamaslostsoul 6 лет назад

+Special Patterns thanks a lot. really appreciate it.

@paulbains9152 4 года назад

Just make sure it dosent have little blue specs in it , thats fire retardant , and causes residue inclusions .
