Muratec's new advanced loader automates sorting and handling sheet metal with precision

Murata Machinery USA, Inc. (Muratec USA) is introducing a new dynamic pairing: the MF30510HL combination punch press/fiber laser and the FG3015, an advanced sorting loader for intelligent parts handling.

First introduced at FABTECH 2024, the MF30510HL consolidates punching, laser cutting, forming, tapping, and deburring into one seamless, automated process. Equipped with a 30-ton punching capacity and 4.0 kW fiber laser, it delivers high-speed processing across a large 5' x 10' work envelope, eliminating the need for multiple machines or setups.

The new FG3015 complements the MF30510HL by automating part sorting and handling with precision.

Featuring servo-controlled operation, edge detection, sheet separation, and a FANUC-based flexible manufacturing system (FMS), the FG3015 supports lights-out production. Its multi-pad vacuum arm automatically adjusts for part size, shape, and material, enabling micro jointless parts production and sorting of mixed part sizes during the same cycle. Programmable stacking patterns streamline downstream processes while the compact right-side layout conserves space.

"The FG3015 represents our latest step toward truly intelligent automation," said Matt Ward, Fabrication Business Unit Manager at Muratec USA. "Today, automation isn't a competitive edge -- it's a requirement."

Muratec will be presenting the MF30510HL alongside the FG3015 at FABTECH 2025
