Besides the several simple solutions, we provide custom made complex applications as well, for example the recently completed fuse installing robot cell.
We had to face a lot of challenges creating this cell, and we needed a high level of creativity to solve the problems.
Problems:
- feeding fuses of 8 different colours and 2 sizes
- 0.7 sec to install one fuse
- gripping and positioning of the fuses
- pressing the fuses
We dedicated a rotary table solution for this task, which included 8 vibrating feeder systems, 2 spider robots and 2 pressing stations. We used press masks for the accurate guiding of the fuses, the robots placed the adequate fuses in these masks. Also, we had to solve the problem of the fuse housing being very tight.
