ShopSabre
IS-A (automated; handles 4×8, 5×5, 5×10 sheets)
industrial
The IS-A is ShopSabre's automated production cell, adding motorized unload table, auto sheet alignment via pneumatic reference pins, and a Mitsubishi M8 control to the IS platform for high-volume nested sheet manufacturing. It runs an all-ballscrew drivetrain with Mitsubishi servos and a 12-position head-mounted carousel ATC. Its low 3" gantry clearance reflects its dedicated flat-sheet nesting role.
