TASK
Loading and unloading workpieces and also the diamond dressing gearwheels of a honing machine in the automotive industry.
The workpieces weigh 5 kg and have a diameter of up to 250 mm. The workpieces arrive lying on a circulating belt and must be loaded into the machine standing up.
The workpieces are loaded onto a hydraulic expansion chuck and the loading must, therefore, be very precise.
SOLUTION
Line portal over the machine tool with a tool deposit for the diamond dressing gearwheel. A gripper with two swivelling modules of 180° each allows the parts to be loaded in the desired position.
SCOPE OF SUPPLY
ZP-4 portal with gripper
Complete with drives and wired to a shared interface specified in cooperation with the machine manufacturer.
RESULT
The system fits perfectly into the production environment. The intervals between workpieces are minimal.
