At the End of Line, the fully formed workpieces are transported to manual or automatic stacking processes. Strothmann’s automation systems separate the workpieces on the conveyor belts. In the simplest case, namely when using the FeederPlus 6neo, no additional systems may be necessary at all, depending on the customer’s requirements. This reduces the initial costs and service costs. Alternatively we offer additional shuttle systems, removal robots and the associated tooling changers.
The linear shuttle decouples the working areas of the automated unloading system of the final press and the orientation robot, thereby reducing lost time and even preventing collisions.
The reversing shuttle makes it possible to turn double parts around the B axis. For this purpose, the shuttle is equipped with a special double tooling. Conventional linear operation is also possible.
The orientation robots take the workpieces off the shuttle and place them on the conveyor units in the desired orientation. They also perform the shuttle tooling change.
Depending on the system configuration and accessibility, the automatic tooling changing units for robots and the shuttle are designed as revolving doors or lifting units with access on the system roof.
