Third phase of new 5-Axis Flexible Manufacturing System installed
Royell has successfully installed the third phase of it's new 5-Axis Flexible Manufacturing System. The completed aluminum machining cell configuration will involve 4 machines tied together by a 44 pallet system that will feed material 24 hours a day with minimal supervision. This is a further step toward manufacturing automation that is gradually replacing the more conventional stand alone CNC machines.

Royell introduces 7-Axis scanning capability into its QC department
The Romer Absolute Arm 7-Axis "SI" series with integrated laser scanner delivers the convenience of a fully integrated 3D scanning solution. The scanner is permanently incorporated into the seventh axis, and weight counterbalance for ergonomics and ease of use. Single button automatic laser power control allows scanning of different surface types with over 8 feet of travel. No warm up time and no homing procedures means an operator can be up and scanning in just moment’s greatly increasing throughput in inspection.Dec 20, 2010, 11:01
Royell Adds More Capability

Royell Adds High Speed Extrusion Machining
The CHIRON MPS-15 allows the use of bar profiles with a cross-section of max 150 x 150 mm. This machining centre can also be used for machining profiles ranging from small parts to endlessly long parts in a single machining operation. Since the feed movement can be programmed to reduce the distance between two work pieces as much as possible, there is hardly any loss of material. Work pieces of all lengths can be machined from bars. As different clamping jaws can be easily manufactured for different profiles, users can benefit from a cost-effective clamping concept. No other machining centre in the world offers such a high level of flexibility. The fully enclosed coolant-proof working area with smooth, steep walls guarantees perfect chip flow. CHIRON is known worldwide for an incredibly quick tool change in only 0.9s with the patented basket changer.

Royell adds the capability to broach and cut internal splines.
Having the ability to broach in-house will greatly reduce manufacturing lead times on our 787 program compared to existing outsourced methods. This capability further adds to the Royell plan to be support its customers through internal processes and help reduce lead times and risk on higher volume programs.
