Robot Press
Robot Press L-Series
The Robot Press L-Series is a line of lightweight press systems intended for use as end effectors in robotic assembly applications.
The Robot Press is intended for use in flexible assembly cells where the process requires that the press be brought to the part rather than bringing the part to the press. Part changes or adjustments can be made by changing robotic positioning rather than swapping expensive tooling and die sets, or changing machine designs.
Controllability
- Press motions are fully programmable
- Integrated monitoring and motion control
- Force Feedback
- Presses are equipped with force and position sensors to support intelligent assembly operations
Featuring
- Lighter press design for mobility
- Lubrication system that allows automatic greasing of the ball nut
- Hardened cap to take load, instead of transferring to robot axis
- Robot and flange mounting
Robustness
- Rock-solid mechanical design – use over multiple projects, compounding ROI
- Electronics and mechanics designed to last millions of cycles
- Overload protection built into software to eliminate damaging equipment
FEATURES
Capabilities
Push or pull with equal accuracy
360° mounting orientation
Easy to use Windows software
Capabilities ranging from less than an ounce to over 200,000 lbs.
Data
Data acquisition and storage
In-process verification and
monitoring
Integrated load cell
Network multiple systems
Robustness
Ball screw design that features
dynamic press load capacity 2.5 to
3 times greater than the stated
load capacity
Servo system sized to reach rated press load capacity in the continuous current range of the motor & drive
Benefits
PRECISE
Control allows for a high level of accuracy in force and position applications
PROGRAMMABLE
Control system and motion components work together in both simple and complex configurations
ENERGY EFFICIENT
Electric Presses are energy conscious and have high efficiency, only using power during the cycle
QUIET
Minimal / low noise pollution, only runs while in cycle
CLEAN
No fluids to replace, condition, or recover eliminating costly downtime
