Application
- Two parts (see left)
- Both parts should be alternately stacked on a rod
- Capacity: 13 cycles / minute
Case study
- 2 refilling hoppers, 2 bowl feeders, 2 linear rails and a circulation system (magazine storage)
- Alignment of both parts in the bowl feeder
- Aligned feeding by the linear rails, each in a non-moving end piece
- A handling system places part 1 on the rod (magazine)
- At the same time, a second handling system grips part 2 out of the non-moving end piece and puts this on the rod (magazine) as well.
- Both parts are stacked alternately this way (approx. 24 parts per magazine)
- As soon as a magazine is fully loaded, the next one is made ready and fixed in place. A cycle chain is integrated for this with 40 magazines.
- Filled rods (magazines) are removed by an operator.
