At ShopBot Tools, we dedicate our energy and resources to offering the best, most affordable, and configurable solutions for our CNC tools. Design and engineering choices are based on thorough reasoning and always with our customer’s needs in mind. ShopBot’s array of CNC routers are used in prototyping, full-production cutting, carving, machining, and milling in a variety of materials, including wood, MDF, plastics, foams, and non-ferrous metals. Our full line of tools is oriented to be used for both standard and specialty operations. They are affordable, yet deliver the professional power and precision associated with heavier and more expensive CNC equipment. If you’re looking for a CNC tool with a smaller footprint, consider our Desktop line of tools. They are built to perform like big tools, built to be rugged, and built to last. The popular ShopBot Desktop (with a work bed of 24” x 18”) and Desktop MAX (with a work bed of 36″ x 24″) are available with two versatile deck options: An Aluminum T-Slot Deck, a general-purpose deck that is versatile for a wide variety of machining options, or a Universal Vacuum Hold Down Deck that allows for quick hold down of sheet goods. The Desktop MAX ATC combines the industrial precision of the Desktop MAX with the efficiency of an Automatic Tool Changer (ATC)—which can reduce your production time by quickly and robotically changing cutters between tool paths. Our full-size shop tools, like the PRSalpha 96 x 48 (and larger), are at work everywhere from small businesses to large factory settings. They are easily configured and can be reconfigured to meet your evolving production needs. And with the addition of an Automatic Tool Changer, ShopBot’s PRSalpha ATC tools become the production powerhouse of your shop! The ATC reduces production time by automatically changing cutters between tool paths, thus eliminating the need for the CNC operator to change and zero tools individually. This allows the PRSalpha ATC to do the full job, even when different tooling is required to make different types of cuts – like cabinets and furniture – or where different bits are needed for roughing and finishing passes – like complex 3D carvings. At ShopBot, we not only provide a wide range of tool sizes; we support the success of each user with a range of services, including technical support, an active online forum, and production support services. Our tools are engineered, manufactured, and supported in Durham, NC, USA. We also develop and produce our own control system software—and we use our CNC tools in our own manufacturing, every day. | ShopBot’s array of CNC routers are used in prototyping, full production cutting, carving, machining, and milling in a variety of materials, including wood, MDF, plastics, foams, and non-ferrous metals.

Visitors will see a live truck and container unloading application using the Destuff-it system. Packages move from the container onto a conveyor where operators use the new two-trigger JumboFlex vacuum tube lifter to unload cartons quickly and safely. Schmalz will also feature the Mobile Order Picker, a flexible lifting and palletizing solution that mounts to the front of a fork truck. Used with either the JumboFlex or JumboErgo depending on load weight, the system enables operators to handle cartons throughout the warehouse while supporting palletizing and order fulfillment tasks. For roll handling applications, Schmalz will demonstrate a Binar Handling QLA servo hoist equipped with a custom tool designed to lift and manipulate coils of packaging material. Automation will also be featured, including a palletizing system with a FANUC CRX cobot using Schmalz PXT modular tooling and GCPi mobile electrical vacuum generator. A second palletizing setup mounted on a mobile AMR platform will demonstrate flexible robotic palletizing in dynamic warehouse environments. Schmalz will also display a miniature version of Cellumation’s intelligent sorting conveyor system. Integrate it with an SPZ layer gripper, and create a fully automated palletizing and depalletizing of full product layers. These palletizing solutions can be custom engineered to handle boxes, bags, slip sheets, and other packaging formats. Schmalz also will have on display offerings from our broad portfolio of vacuum components, gripping systems, and ergonomic lifting devices supporting every stage of packaging and supply chain operations—from primary packaging and case packing to end-of-line palletizing and logistics handling. | Schmalz is the global market leader in vacuum industrial automation and ergonomic material handling solutions.

Saw Trax Mfg. Inc.
We offer several cutting solutions for our customer base. From specialized hand cutting tools, and saw kits, to our most popular product, vertical panel saws. Versatility is the key to our success. Truly the best saws in their class, our vertical panel saws feature a steel bearing system and patented alignments Accu-Square alignment systems. In addition to the standard circular saw our panel saws have a unique carriage that allows the use of different cutting tools. We also offer a floating router insert, a razor knife insert, a rolling sheer insert and a floating saw insert. One machine can cut almost all sheet goods with the proper cutting insert! For the Sign industry we offer our uniquely designed Coro-Claws and Biddi Knife. The Coro-Claw hand held cutter is designed to cut along the flutes of corrugated plastic materials. The Coro-Claw Deluxe cuts 4 mil coro and the Coro-Claw X cuts 10 mil coro. We also offer a safety vinyl & banner material cutter that we have branded as the Biddi-Knife. (This is short for Bi-Directional safety knife.) These are just a few of the products in addition to our most popular panel saw & mat cutter combo panel saw. From the garage shop to the industrial production plant to sign shops, our machines have the right frame-size and saw-type to cut all of your substrates from plywood, plastics, PVC, aluminum, aluminum composites, MDO, MDF, Melamine, Veneer plywood, and so on. With our new line up of sheet carts, like the Panel Express, Dolly Max, yel-Low dolly and the Scoop Dolly, our products are always evolving with the needs of our users. Saw Trax continues to think outside of the box with innovations not seen in the material handling marketplace. We offer superior customer service and our friendly staff is very knowledgeable and experienced as to how our machines operate and perform when cutting various material. Your time is money. Our goal is to make your cutting jobs easier and you more productive. We design our sheet cutters from the user’s perspective; “What would I want if I were buying this? | SawTrax Manufacturing, Inc. started in 1988 with one mission: build a better way to cut. Our vertical panel saws laid the groundwork, but the realities of warehouses and job sites pushed us into something bigger. Crews didn’t just need clean cuts — they needed gear tough enough to move sheet goods, heavy loads, and awkward materials without slowing the whole operation down. That’s where our material‑handling lineup was born. Today, SawTrax is a veteran‑owned, U.S.‑based manufacturer building equipment for real‑world conditions. The Scoop Dolly, Yel‑Low Dolly, Raised Safety Dolly, Shuttle Dolly, and Double Dolly are all engineered to reduce strain, improve control, and keep crews productive when the pressure’s on. These tools are steel‑built, field‑tested, and made to take the kind of punishment that happens long after the brochures go back in the drawer. We also design reaching tools that solve the everyday headaches operators deal with. The Reacher Liberator and our full line of reacher heads give crews the leverage to clear jams, pull awkward loads, and grab what’s out of reach without wasting motion or risking injury. Built for warehouses and job sites, these tools keep material moving safely and efficiently while standing up to the grind. At MODEX 2026, we’re bringing equipment that proves itself where it counts — on the floor, in the field, and under real load. Veteran‑owned. U.S.‑built. Tough solutions for modern material handling.
