MACH is the next-generation system developed by Tecsal for the automatic transport of frames along conveyor systems. The whole handling is managed by touch-screen configurable terminals through which it’s possible to easily set up all the operating parameters (speed, time, stopping space...) according to the specifications of each system and the particular stage of the process; a mimic external monitor also allows a real-time control of all the operations. MACH is extremely versatile and it can also be installed on existing systems as be reset at any moment as well, adapting without problems to new operating conditions and needs. Compared to the traditional systems, MACH presents many advantages: it drastically reduces the manual operations, it guarantees a fast, safe and efficient handling in any environment and conditions, an advanced process management, low operating costs and greatest productivity index. The results stand out even more in "hostile" environment (such as salting, refrigerating, freezing cells) and anywhere there is a need for continuous and quick heavy loads handling, also for long distances and large spaces, as using MACH all these difficult manual operations are no longer necessary.

Tecsal has developed a system for progressive and automatic frames advancement according to particular production flows and processing stages.

The functioning, which can be either hydraulic or pneumatic, is based on the accompanying move carried out by mechanical "porters" along the sliding axis of trolleys on the rail system.

This allows the frames to follow preset paths within rooms, greatly reducing the manual intervention of operators who do not have to move frames through the whole process in this way.

If necessary, the system can be adapted to service stations (f.e. washing machines, loading robots, elevators) in which a systematic control of operations is required.
