Automation with ROBOTREX.
Experience it live at the large HEDELIUS in-house exhibition.
Lang Technik GmbH from Holzmaden delivered its ROBOTREX 96 automation solution to Meppen just in time for the in-house exhibition. The automation cell consists of a FANUC 6-axis robot with a payload capacity of 50 kg and two automation trolleys, tooling with a total of 46 vices.
The automation trolley as a workpiece storage system.
The automation trolleys serve as mobile workpiece storage units. The patented, upright bearing of the vices ensures optimised utilisation of the footprint. The automation trolleys allow workpieces to be clamped and unclamped even at a great distance from the machine. An automation carriage can be removed or exchanged during machine operation. The ROBOTREX 96 also has a gripper change function that enables different vice sizes to be processed. In conjunction with the automatic recognition of the automation trolleys, the system offers a high degree of flexibility and covers a wide variety of parts.
Lateral loading with vices.
The ROBOTREX system is connected to an ACURA 50 EL 5-axis machining centre in the HEDELIUS demonstration centre. The automation loads the vices from the right-hand side of the machine. The work area remains fully accessible from the front for set-up and control work. The interface is designed so that different workpieces can be clamped on one carriage. The number of workpieces to be produced is linked to the NC program at the operating unit of the automation with graphical support, whereby the NC programs are stored on the CNC control.
