HANDLING SYSTEM FOR CYLINDER BLOCKS

Challenge
  • Different cylinder bore distances
  • Frictional fit gripping with a gripping force safety device
  • Preventing unwanted tension when loading and unloading on the positioning pins
Solution

Loading and unloading machining centers with different types of 3-cylinder crankcases. To move to the different pitches of the cylinder bores, the axial distance of the individual grippers is changed pneumatically. To align the workpieces in the gripper, a combination of parallel and concentric grippers is used. When loading and unloading the device, positional inaccuracies are compensated by an integrated pneumatically centerable twin-axis compensation. Due to the variety of types, the part presence was implemented using a touchless, stroke-independent sensor system.

  • Pneumatic pitch adjustment
  • XY standard compensation
  • Increased friction value due to tempered gripper pins (suitable for loading unfi nished parts only)
