Case History – 4-spindle multiple on sensorised arm

A major automation line manufacturer engaged us to develop a customised arm for supporting screwdrivers (4), to be incorporated into an automatic engine gearbox tightening line.

• Certainty of the position requested;
• Certainty of tightening of all the screws;
• Indexing of the sensorised arm for use with different part formats;
• Automatic retraction system for the arm when not in use;
• Interfacing indexing arm with the PLC of the line.

Creation of a complete workstation with:

• ERGONOMIC SENSOR-EQUIPPED ARM: Handy-Flex series orthogonal anti-reaction sensor-equipped arm 400D. Complete with rotating interface for four-spindle multiple and position sensors for line feed signal management. Watch the video
• PLATE FOR SUPPORT customised
• INDEXING ARM AND DUAL START: with signals for interfacing with PLC.

• Certain Positioning in the points required for tightening in the various formats
• Elimination of errors due to incorrect positioning
• Optimisation of the production process and increase in productivity
• Improvement ergonomic of the workstation of work
• Simple and intuitive management of work phases. 90% reduction in errors due to misinterpretation of the process and work phases.
