Magic squares:
Electric drive technology from Festo produces cubes for “CubiCup”.
Precision, short cycle and retooling times:

30 years ago, the Rubik’s cube had taken the world by storm.
In the spirit of this much-loved puzzle, the Hungarian company
Cubi Team Kft. developed the strategy game “CubiCup”, in
which two players create a pyramid from 56 wooden cubes.
To ensure that the cubes fit together perfectly, the edge length
of 17 mm must be cut to within an accuracy of one tenth of a
millimetre. This is done using electric axes and controllers from
Festo, which ensure absolute precision in the automated, highly
efficient system. Apart from the quality of the end product,
the automation solution guarantees short cycle and retool-
ing times for different toys. A production changeover requires
only a change in program along with the replacement of a few
components, inserts and tools.
