Efficient modularization, integration, and qualification for process-oriented systems based on MTP

MiniTec has developed an innovative concept for individual plants based on standardized production cells. These are self-contained boxes that always have the same dimensions and an identical basic structure, but are equipped with different functions and technologies for the respective tasks. At aaa Düsseldorf 2024, MiniTec will present an exemplary plant based on this approach.

Example for needed motion sequence: ▶️ Lifting - Swiveling - Feeding - Gripping - Rotation on rotary indexing table Recommended modules; ✳️ Lifting unit HEK-4 ✳️ Swivel unit SE-4 with 4-way air grommets ✳️ Linear unit LSM-4 centrally mounted with ✳️ Adapter plate APL-4-N ✳️ Gripper PGM-38 ✅ Grid dimension with centering holes ✅ Centering rings (fit h6) ✅ Quick joining and assembly without drilling ✅ Adapter plates available as accessories

FOR STANDARDISED HYBRID COMPONENT PRODUCTION Cost pressure, variant diversity and the associated low volumes require the corresponding adaptability and flexibility of production systems. In order to meet these requirements, consistent modularisation and standardisation is required. From a robust six-axis robot, a modular gripper system and process assemblies to an icon-based programming interface, we have everything you need for future-proof production.

The model demonstrates Elektra Tailfingen's expertise in modular test equipment and control assemblies tailored to customer requirements. With connections for optical continuity testing, two ports for 4-pin sensors and integrated DC power supply inc..

Power supplies from the series - Low Emission - AC/DC converters - DC/DC converters are also available in a small and compact design up to an output power of 60 W. All modules can be ordered for DIN rail mounting (see image) or for wall mounting (thread in the housing).

The AXIS-SA50 compensation unit is designed to compensate positional deviations in assembly and joining processes in mechanical engineering. It is used wherever components must be joined precisely despite manufacturing tolerances—such as during contacting or press-fit operations. The integrated spring-loaded centering mechanism ensures automatic, stress-free alignment of the components. This effectively compensates misalignment and prevents mechanical jamming—even during repeated cycles in automated operation. The module compensates for a radial offset of ±1 mm in the XY direction as well as a rotational angle of ±3°, while reliably transmitting high forces along the Z axis—both in tension and compression. Its compact dimensions of Ø 50 mm × 36 mm make it ideal for gripper assemblies, joining units, and applications with limited installation space. Thanks to its compliant design, the AXIS-SA50 compensation unit reduces mechanical peak loads and protects adjacent components such as robot flanges or adapter elements from premature wear. It improves centering during joining, minimizes assembly stresses, and significantly increases long-term process reliability.

The ConTrax® Module One from BÄR Automation is a modular, autonomous guided vehicle (AGV/AMR) for flexible material flows. It can carry up to 500 kg, navigates freely using SLAM, travels omnidirectionally, and lifts loads. Its modular design allows it to be combined with various superstructure and robotics modules depending on the application. Integrated energy management enables reliable 24/7 operation, allowing for the efficient automation of transport and production processes.

With real-time sensor data analysis, you gain clear insights into equipment performance, helping you act before issues escalate. And with our equipment preventive maintenance software, you can schedule interventions proactively, avoiding costly downtime.

The MONITEX BT torque sensor is a torque measuring coupling hub for measuring torque and speed. MONITEX BT is a ROTEX coupling hub with an integrated measuring system for measuring torque and speed. Due to its compact design the system is able to replace a standard ROTEX hub in many cases while it is easy to assemble. The inductive energy supply is achieved by an inductive head installed radially to the coupling in a distance of 10 mm at the maximum. Once the system is switchen on, the measured data of torque and speed are sent by MONITEX BT via Bluetooth and can be received via the free MONITEX-BT app by a smartphone, a tablet or a computer.

Reliable machine monitoring requires information regarding early warning, alarm status as well as local display of measured values and remote connectivity. The Model AM3030 Alarm Monitor is a three-color bargraph display with numeric readout. It provides transmitter excitation and up to 4 programmable trip points in a neat 1/8 DIN housing. This alarm monitor complements the Metrix line of vibration transmitters by combining excitation, display and protection in a single compact enclosure. Analog and serial feedback is available. The AM3030 accepts 4...20 mA current inputs. It is configured using the 5 buttons on the front panel. The green, yellow and red LED bargraph display can be configured as a dot or bar graph display and can be programmed for single or tri-color display with change on alarm or change by zone.

With the SL870020, ipf electronic has a sensor in its portfolio that monitors compressed air consumption with high measuring accuracy. In addition, it is possible to retrofit the sensor into existing systems during operation and for device maintenance during operation. At a suitable measuring location, with dry air and under consideration of the inlet/outlet section, only a flange with a G½" ball valve (retrofitted if necessary) is required. Then the sensor is screwed onto the ball valve, which is opened then. The system does not lose air at this point. Afterwards, only the clamping sleeve has to be loosened and the measuring head has to be pushed in until it is placed in the middle of the pipeline with the help of a scale. Finally, the clamping sleeve is tightened again, which completes the installation. Now only the measuring results are missing. A Modbus RTU interface, a pulse output for counting or a 4-20mA analog output are available for this purpose. Thus, the entire information on air consumption can be easily processed in-house, so that you never lose track of the costs. The solution portfolio is rounded off by a local consumption measurement system that reliably performs its service even in confined spaces: The sensors listed below have an internal flow straightener. Therefore they require no or in exceptional cases only a very short inlet and outlet distance.
