● Astes4 Mitsubishi Electric sorting systems are fully automated solutions that integrate with laser cutting machines to handle cut parts after the laser process. The system automatically identifies, sorts, and places parts without operator involvement—accelerating production, eliminating errors, and streamlining the entire workflow. It operates using a four-arm manipulator equipped with suction cups and sensors that intelligently manage each part, regardless of its shape or purpose.

---

● Implementing Astes4 Mitsubishi Electric systems brings numerous advantages, including significantly increased laser cutting efficiency. It is reduced labor costs, elimination of sorting errors, and preparation for further processing. The system enables machines to operate 24/7 with no interruptions. Thanks to full automation, parts are immediately and precisely routed to the next stage in production. Production mproving internal logistics and order planning.

---

● The Astes4 system identifies parts based on their shape and position on the sheet using sensors and system integration. Built-in comparison algorithms analyze the parts and assign them to the appropriate locations according to pre-programmed logic. Parts can be sorted automatically by order, project, assembly sequence, or production step—with complete control over quality.

---

● Yes, Astes4 Mitsubishi Electric sorting systems can be integrated not only with new machines but also with existing laser cutters—even those from other manufacturers. Thanks to a modular design and technical support from Polteknik, the system can be customized to meet individual customer needs—both in terms of cutting technology and available production space. Integration includes analysis, system selection, installation, implementation, and operator training.
