Robotic Coping Machine Picture
VACAM automatically determines which route is the most efficient based on production, customer preferences, as well as the MSI line's machinery. MSI refers to the final stage of transporting semi-finished and raw materials from machine in machine. MSI is one integrated production process. Voortman’s proprietary CNC control system VACAM installed on every machine allows you to monitor, track, and plan every profile, product or future in real time.
Our VACAM software, which we developed ourselves, is known for its outstanding performance in buffer management and material handling. Active buffer management guarantees a priority position in the line for the first profile while buffering all subsequent profiles. Profiles can be moved towards the datum to allow for new profiles to be loaded onto the system. This increases productivity and efficiency significantly, as machines no longer wait in idle mode to produce the next profile.
