CMS FXB CNC Router for production of flat sheet aluminium parts at Byfleet facility

Supercraft Byfleet has commissioned a CMS FXB router, capable of high throughput production of component blanks for aerospace clients. Increased demand compelled Supercraft to investigate and implement new equipment for the production of flat blanks that fulfil the quality and volume of parts required.

Following research into various solutions, a short list of potential suppliers of CNC routers with the necessary capability were selected and the process of establishing the best value / performance was started. Sample parts were evaluated against cycle time, quality of finish and accuracy. The CMS solution permits an excellent edge finish at a very high cutting speed, without leaving marks on the surface. The CMS FXB CNC router is a fixed bridge, vertical router with 8’ x 5’ mobile table and comes equipped with and ATC (Automatic Tool Changing) TX3 head unit.
