Robotically Loaded Assembly Press

The Challenge:
Design a fully automated multi-station press for HVAC header tubes. The machine must automatically load:

• Header Tubes (variety of part configurations)
• Baffles
• End Caps

Parts must then be automatically assembled and sorted by part type.

Solution:
See the video of how the following methods, components and technologies were implemented and integrated to provide a comprehensive solution:

• Robotic Loading of header tubes using:
  • Robotic bin picking with vision
  • Part identification using robotic vision
  • Part orientation using robotic vision
  • Robotic re-grip station to attain orientation
• Magazine Loading Stamped Baffles
• Vibratory bowl feeder loaded end caps
• Servo driven electro-mechanical pressing
• Laser part identification
• Laser part position feedback
• Recipe driven part press configuration
• Linear cam driven assembly

Impact to the Customer:

• Part rate of 1 part assembled every <6 seconds
• Parts are automatically assembled
• Parts are automatically sorted by top and bottom header
