Z axis gantry-type removal unit with NC drive
The gantry-type removal unit is composed of the following components:
1. Position-controlled numerical Z8 axis
An electric motor drives the gripper arm via a belt and gearbox. The measuring system is in the motor. It is possible to move to any position.
2. Gripper swivel movement
To move around the counter spindle, the gripper must be swiveled out or in. This motion is achieved pneumatically between two end stops.
3. Workpiece gripper
The workpiece or the bar remnant is picked up at the spindle center by gripper jaws operated on both sides.
Automatic removal of the finished workpiece from the main or counter spindle, which is then placed onto a conveyor belt or into a workpiece container.
Removal of the remnant from the main spindle in the case of bar stock machining, which is then placed into a remnant container.
