Automated robot solutions

Intelligent automation – even more flexibility and efficiency


1. iXcenter integrated

With the optional iXcenter robot cell, blanks and/or finished parts can be fed and discharged quickly, safely, and flexibly.
The robot cell is docked ergonomically to the machine. It can be moved easily to the right during the setup process, allowing unobstructed access to the work area. During production, the iXcenter is fixed in front of the machine’s work area. The robot then accesses the work area via the sliding guard of the machine, which opens automatically behind the robot cell.

Simply good handling of blanks and finished parts

  • Space-saving vertical storage with up to 22 pallets stacked up
  • Pallet size 600 x 400 mm
  • Minimal pallet height 25.4 mm
  • Pallets with blanks are loaded at the top, pallets with finished parts are removed at the bottom – at any time without interrupting production
  • The pallet is pulled in and out by the robot
  • Easy macro-programming

 

Using more potentials
Subsequent processes such as cleaning, measuring, deburring, etc. can be integrated in the robot cell

Ready to Go

  • 6-axis robot for 7.5 kg payload with integrated gripper control
  • Double gripper included in the standard
  • 22 pallets (without workpiece-specific inlays) are included in the standard
  • Easy in-house relocation

2. iXcenter modular

With the iXcenter robot cell, blanks and finished parts can be fed and discharged quickly, safely, and flexibly.
The overall sequence between the machine and the robot cell is created using predefined macros in the NC program. The robot accesses the machine’s work area via the sliding door, which opens and closes automatically. The iXcenter has a modular design and allows you to integrate different processes economically. Thanks to the accessibility of spindles, tool carriers, and the tool magazine, iXcenter makes you ideally prepared to set up your machine.
