Extra functionalities of the Halter loading robots

Additional functionalities allow you to use the loading robot even more efficiently. Thus, we offer automation solutions that grow with your business.

WORKPIECE TURNOVER FUNCTION FOR TWO-SIDED MACHINING

After one side of the workpiece is machined (OP10), the half-finished workpiece is positioned on a turnover station. Then it can be gripped on the other side of the workpiece and again placed in the chuck or vice of the CNC machine so the second side can be machined (OP20).

Unloading the Workpiece onto a Pallet

The finished workpieces can be unloaded onto an additional pallet. This is ideal if you want to add buffer capacity or load heavy workpieces.

Unloading workpiece onto an external fixed location

A workpiece can be unloaded onto an external location, i.e. a conveyor belt.

COLLECTING A WORKPIECE FROM A REVOLVER TOOL

The workpiece can be collected from a pickoff tool after machining in the CNC machine.

Cleaning the Workpiece Outside the CNC Machine

The robot unloads the CNC machine and then moves the workpiece to an external cleaning station before returning the workpiece to the HALTER LoadAssistant.

Cleaning workpiece outside the CNC machine 1

Positioning the Workpiece on a Measuring Station

The robot unloads the CNC machine and moves the workpiece to an external measuring station before returning the workpiece to the HALTER LoadAssistant. The robot can place rejected workpieces in a separate position.

Positioning workpiece on a measuring station 1

WORKPIECE SIDE-GRIPPING

The workpiece is axially taken from the loading table and positioned on a side-gripping station. Then it is regripped perpendicularly and positioned in the vice of the CNC machine. This allows a high buffer capacity for long workpieces.

Shaft Handling

Long shafts can be loaded and unloaded with seamless placement in the chuck, creating high capacity for shafts up to 600 mm, with standard grid plates and up to 1000 mm with custom grid plates.

Customer-Specific Functionalities

Halter’s application engineering team can design grid plates and special gripper fingers for your specific workpieces or castings - for example, if you want to automate castings or other workpieces that require special handling. All these customer-specific solutions can be implemented in the user-friendly HALTER SmartControl. The flexibility of our solutions ensures that you can automate an even greater variety of workpieces.

WORKPIECE-SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS
