Functional, intelligent design – the XMS integrated machine concept from item

Customized solutions that offer real benefits

Build machines the smart way! Line XMS from item offers everything needed to construct state-of-the-art machinery in next to no time. Thanks to the multi-award-winning design of XMS, every machine automatically incorporates features and characteristics that normally have to be planned and added separately. That means bespoke solutions can be built faster, while the basic concept can be easily modified to suit customer requirements. All that makes XMS the perfect template for modular series production.

Clean lines on the outside, ingenious details on the inside

Three features characterize the XMS series:

1. Line XMS produces load-bearing constructions with compartmentalised functional sections, making it incredibly easy to build modular, maintenance-friendly structures.

2. Cables and hoses are safely routed through cable conduits that are integrated into the profiles. Everything is easily accessible but hidden from view.

3. Profiles XMS have closed outer surfaces for ease of cleaning and seals that ensure doors close perfectly.

Screws beat welds

Line XMS uses item fastening techniques. The aluminium profiles can be screwed together in virtually no time and withstand the loads and stresses of day-to-day work for the long term. Compared to welding together metal frames, this system is faster, cleaner and reduces maintenance costs by eliminating the need for rust removal and painting. Modifications can be made with ease and connecting up new modules presents no problems whatsoever.

Easy access with the best protection

The XMS system includes profiles designed specifically for doors. Lip Seals stop doors from flapping and rattling and ensure a dust-tight closure. This results in doors that are sealed on all sides. The doors close with outstanding precision and can be designed in any height or size. Thanks to Double Door Stop Set 8, users can now build generous double doors without having to incorporate inconvenient centre posts.

A new dimension in safety

The Safety Switch for Line XMS uses contactless switching and therefore offers a long and reliable service life free from mechanical wear. This is made possible by an encoded electronic system that uses RFID technology. In contrast to mechanical systems, the encoded chip is extremely tamper-proof. The system ensures repeat accuracy for switching points and an exceptional safety standard.
