Cube Assembly Pro Mechatronics system
- 1. CUBE ASSEMBLY PRO – MECHATRONICS SYSTEM
- 2. CUBE ASSEMBLY PRO : This compact mechatronic system depicts a complete structured automatized assembly process. Here, the manufacturing steps of feeding, material testing, transporting and handling, pinning, pressing and storing are realized. The applied workpieces are cube halves of aluminum and plastic. The cube halves are being pinned automatically before the pressing process. To achieve this, special Functional Units are applied for turning of the halves repeatedly and to insert the pins.

- 14. HANDLING UNIT/ ROBOTIC ARM
- 15. ROTATING UNIT It is designed for rotation of workpiece by 90°. The workpiece is placed in a take up and rotated by means of a pneumatic rotary cylinder. This unit inserts spring pins into workpiece. These pins are reserved in 2 magazines. An upright standing aluminum case half is placed with the opening in the direction of the magazine in the take up. The pneumatic cylinder of the take up presses the workpiece against the front side of the magazine. Opposite side-the pin insert moves forward and pushes two spring pins with the two ejectors towards the accommodation bores of the work piece halves. PINNING UNIT
- 16. PORTAL It removes the formed workpieces from the press and transports them further to the next station. The workpieces are taken up the sucker unit. Hence the sucker extends towards the bottom. After the take up the sucker returns to the upper area and the shuttle cylinder accomplishes the task of transporting the workpiece in horizontal direction. At the end of the stroke the workpiece is again placed down by the extended sucker unit. In this, workpiece can be formed with a force of approx. 220N. After the insertion of the workpieces, the workpieces are transported to press area. Then the safety door closes and the press cylinder begins to extend. After machining, the safety door opens and the workpieces are expelled from the work area and they are now ready for further transportation. PNEUMATIC PRESS
