The Gannomat Express S1 RTA combines the single-spindle platform of the Express S1 with a fitting insertion function for ready-to-assemble furniture. In addition to the wooden dowel, the machine also sets cam connectors or similar connectors that allow the end customer or assembler to perform tool-free assembly. For manufacturers of flat-pack furniture operating in mail order or direct sales, the RTA variant is the decisive difference from the standard machine — a single workstation covers dowel and fitting insertion. The S1 RTA is aimed at smaller producers or workshops entering the RTA segment or wishing to extend their existing dowel machine with the fitting function. Asamer supplies the Express S1 RTA as authorized Gannomat dealer for Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary.
Applications
For flat-pack furniture manufacturers
RTA furniture thrives on the end customer being able to assemble it in a few steps. This requires cam connectors and dowels to be perfectly positioned at the factory. That is exactly what the S1 RTA delivers — precisely and reproducibly.
As entry into fitting insertion
Anyone who has so far only set dowels and wants to start with a first RTA line finds a manageable investment in the S1 RTA. One spindle, both functions — a clear step into a new product segment.
Buying Guide
The Express S1 RTA is ideal for small to medium RTA producers. Anyone producing higher quantities should go directly for the Express S2 RTA; for variant-rich production, Vector CNC or Spectrum with fitting insertion is worthwhile.
