5 What is a Flex Cell? What does Flex Cell even mean?

6 Flex Cell means: Flexible Manufacturing Flexible Construction Flexible Production Flexible Materials Flexible Manpower

7 Cell offers: Ability to select & choose best methods Ability to select and choose best machines Small footprint slightly over 4,000 sq/ft Less movement of product Work smarter, not harder

8 Covered today include: Reduced development through Design Software Software to optimize the saw and nest patterns for router Use of Intelligent Board Management Flexible system to fit changing Product Styles Part Identification / Labeling Machine selection able to handle different batch sizes De-stacking of components Benefits of pre-finishing cabinets prior to assembly.

9 What products can we create in the Flex Cell? Nurse Stations Reception Desks Frameless Cabinetry Signage Curved Components POP Displays Framed Cabinetry Closets

10 We re demonstrating the manufacture of face frame cabinets that are prefinished and kitted for assembly. o 5/8 thick plywood, dado and rabbet construction o ½ thick drawer box with ¼ bottom, nailed construction o ¾ Solid Oak Fronts o Door and drawer front will be demonstrated tomorrow o ¾ thick oak, five piece cope and stick doors o Flat Line Finishing

12 Participants: Brian Webb - Regional Sales Manager Doug Geboski - Woodworking Market Specialist HMT Locations: Rochester Hills, MI - Long Island, NY - Cincinnati, OH - Chicago, IL - Charlotte, NC

13 Complex products are often one of. How do I design them cost effectively? woodcad/cam and CutRite Optimization Part Designer Designing free 3D Elements and Parts Object Designer Designing custom furniture based on cross-sections and 2D plan view drawings Cut Lists Components Solid Wood Parts

14 What compromises do you make for yield? Pattern complexity Cut Rite Yield vs. time Open stacks control Part carts with plenty of space for storage Open Stacks refers to the number of unique parts that be contained within a single pattern

15 Cutting specialty jobs and short runs generates material waste CutRite and IntelliStore off fall management system Complete board library Larger parts stored in IntelliStore Smaller parts in identifiable racks

16 Custom work is labor intensive IntelliStore for sheet handling Automatic Labeling of sheets prior to cutting Infeed/Outfeed table on the Weeke Close spacing reduces steps 2 people running 4 machines 4,000 sq/ft including material storage

17 Do you have the right material on hand to do the job? IntelliStore Complete inventory control Works seamlessly with the CutRite software Holzma saw and Weeke Vantech Material allocations You cannot steal from one job and be short on the next unless you plan it

18 Panel Management Systems Homag IntelliStore

19 IntelliStore Advantages Right material Right place Right time Less chance of material damage Less likelihood of injury 20%-30% Inventory Space Saving

20 IntelliStore Advantage lights out operation means it works while you are away pre-sorts and pre-labels tomorrow s production puts away newly received inventory Automatic size and weight

completed nest is pushed off and the spoil board is ready for the

21 Is material handling keeping our machines from running productive? IntelliStore eliminates idle time Outfeed table on Weeke The completed nest is pushed off and the spoil board is ready for the next panel The next panel is immediately loaded to reduce dwell time between nests

22 Machining parts in volume Weeke Vantech 5 x 12 flat table router 12 Hp router 13 position tool changer Routing and machining Drill block for boring speed 12 spindles Outfeed station

23 Complex parts take time The router is more than a nesting machine Pods for edge machining Sign making 3-D machining Carving

24 Cutting a large volume of parts for case good jobs Holzma HPP sheet ¾ basis for high volume Power Concept to reduce the number of Cross Cutting Cycles Quick cycle time due to high operating speeds Automated feeding from IntelliStore system on prestack table 28HP high efficiency main saw Predictive blade change not reactive Maintenance queues

Cross cutting of various sized parts PowerConcept Reduces the number of Cross Cutting Cycles An independently moveable clamp allows several strips with different cross

25 Cross cutting of various sized parts PowerConcept Reduces the number of Cross Cutting Cycles An independently moveable clamp allows several strips with different cross cuts to be cut to length together. Strips with the same cross cuts, the Power Concept can connect to the main program fence using a locking device. Increase output by 20-30%

26 Complex parts take time Use the Holzma as a specialty center Kerfing to bend Cut / Groove for drawer sides or other parts Symmetrical splitting of veneered or printed boards

27 The right tools for the job. Put the right parts on the right machine

28 How do you balance the work flow? Parts with machining to Router Rectangles without machining to saw Some specialty cutting to the saw Cut/Groove Drawers Kerfing Wood Grain Alignment Creates router capacity

29 If you produce parts at two machines, how do you get them together? Label Application Manual Automatic Label Table Label Efficiency Manual labeling takes time Automating labeling increased productivity Manual printer for small parts or remakes/specials

30 Sample Labels

31 If you produce parts at two different machines, how do you keep them together? Holzma Domino Carts Multiple and adjustable storage locations Vertical or horizontal storage Eliminates moving parts you do not need at the next station Multiple carts can be joined for large jobs All surfaces are protected

32 If you produce parts at volume how do you stack it? Holzma Hugo Lifts Battery operated Hydraulic Lifting pump Photo-eye controlled lowering Photo-eye controlled raising 2,220# Capacity

33 Brandt KDF-1680 Profiline Banding.4 12mm Board Thickness 8-60 mm (40mm w/ airtec) PowerTouch Controller airtec offer zero joint finish Up to 20 m/min

34 Homag ZHR 01 Optimat Boomerang Return Conveyor Compact Design One-man Operation

35 Edgebanding curved parts Contour Edgebanding Machines Vector Revolution 180 FTK 130 (These machines are not present in work cell today.)

36 Layout Possibilities

37 What is the right solution for me? Could be primary manufacturing solution Could be a cell in a larger factory for short run / specials

38 Benefits of Flex Cell Intellistore manages and distributes product. Right product, right machine, right time, safely, no damage Saw and Router are independent of one another Saw and Router complement each other Higher production capabilities Efficiency through material handling

39 What is the Investment? Production equipment, and software investment: $1,182,441 $1,182,441 investment capable of producing $4+ million/year $15M+ w/custom products Definitely a Good Investment
