The system is based on the TECHTORY standard cell system and combines the advantages of both table-cell and floor-cell cell types.
The workpieces are manually fed as bulk material into a vibratory conveyor system and separated using linear handling. Before the T-nuts are transferred to the rotary indexing table, the holes are checked for presence, position, and dirt using a vision sensor. The workpieces are then transferred to the individual processing stations. In stations 2 and 3, the threaded holes are deburred from the outside using countersinks and from the inside using brushes. Lances and nozzles in station 4 blow out the holes. In station 5, the T-nuts are embossed with the part number and company logo. A removal system then places the finished parts on a pivoting conveyor belt. This conveyor belt fills three shipping cartons according to a predetermined quantity.
