You can build nearly anything with T-Slot Aluminum Extrusion
Looking to build something with T-Slotted Aluminum but don't know where to start with the design? Try the new TBUILD™ Design Software by TSLOTS at tbuild.io. This web-based application allows you to create and edit designs, develop a bill of materials, and more in an intuitive, easy-to-use tool.
Why use T-Slot Aluminum Extrusions?
- No welding required, which means no heat stress or warping, no long delays waiting for the project to make it through the weld shop
- No painting or surface preparation
- High strength-to-weight ratio
- Aluminum is easy to machine
- Assembly is done with simple hand tools
- No expensive fabricating equipment is required
- Frames and assemblies built with T-Slot extrusion are easily adjusted, modified or re-configured to accommodate design changes
- T-Slot extrusion looks great and won’t rust
The applications for T-Slot extrusion are endless!
End-Of-Arm Tooling
End-of-arm tooling must be strong, light, and easy to modify. T-slot aluminum extrusion meets all three criteria, making it the ideal material for pick-and-place, robotic arms and lift assist applications. Suction cups and grippers can be quickly attached and re-positioned anywhere along the length of the extrusion.
Material Handling
The strength, versatility, and aesthetics of T-slot aluminum extrusion make it ideal for building carts, dollies, racks and conveyors. Accessory items such as pads, rollers, bumpers, suction cups and tool balancers are easily mounted anywhere along the T-slot.
Workstation
Moveable or stationary, small or large, T-slot aluminum extrusion lends itself to workstations for every industrial application such as Parts assembly, Packing, Cleaning, Inspecting, Testing
Test Fixtures
There is no "one-size-fits-all" when it comes to test fixtures. That's why T-slot aluminum extrusion is ideal for constructing test stands and enclosures.
It can easily be designed to incorporate safety features such as safety interlocks and light curtains. Accessories such as door hinges, rollers, mounting feet, and casters allow you to design and specify the test fixture that is right for your application and budget.
Machine Guarding
Your company just paid a million dollars for a new piece of automated production equipment. It is fast, efficient, and it's going to make your company a lot of money. Why hide it behind a rickety, cumbersome, and ugly guard?
The flexibility and aesthetics of T-slot aluminum extrusion make it the perfect solution for simple or difficult-to-guard machines. Door handles, safety interlocks, light curtains and indicator lights are easily mounted anywhere along the T-slot.
Lean Manufacturing
Conducting a kaizen event and want immediate results? T-slot extrusion is ideal for quickly building storage systems, carts, displays and communications boards.
