This
fully automatic system receives bulk product and assembles
the 2 parts of a bearing assembly by heating the main body
and then pressing the second part into a feature on the body.
The whole
process runs on a 10 seconds cycle time.
Vibratory
bowls orientate and singulate parts, the bodies are transferred
into an induction coil, once heated placed into heated bottom
tooling of a hydraulic press.
The
upper part is fed by the second bowl with individual parts
loaded into the top tool of the press. Temperature, load and
position monitoring are used to ensure correct press assembly.
Assembled parts are located by the press top tool and released
onto a advancing outfeed conveyor.
