inside the mould area, the home position program can be activated
whereby a programmed sequence of movements is carried out to
move the gripper safely out of the mould area. Monitoring of adjustable movement ranges to avoid
collisions (effective in manual and in automatic
operation)Electric interfaces for gripper functions of robot system

The EOAT will be designed to remove a nest block from
the mold and place a nest block with insert parts into the
mold.
The removal side of the EOAT will have a pneumatic
gripper with custom designed gripper fingers to engage
with the nest block. Locating features will provide
positive engagement with the nest block.
The insert side of the EOAT will have a pneumatic
gripper with custom designed gripper fingers to engage
with the nest block. Locating features will provide
positive engagement with the nest block and with the
mold.
All grippers and slide motions will have sensors for the
end positions. A sensor will also be used to monitor the
presence of an insert block. All sensors will be wired
into logical AND boards to minimize the inputs needed
on the robot system. Shuttle Table for Nest Blocks
The shuttle table will be a pneumatically driven table
with a common plate that will hold two insert blocks. The
framework of the table will be steel tubing for rigidity. An
aluminum top plate will be used to mount the slide
cylinder and guide rails. After the shuttle is serviced by
the operator, he needs to hold down a 2-hand button to
send the shuttle into the robot work area. A light curtain
or tunnel will be used to prevent the operator from
reaching into the robot work area. If a light curtain is
needed or a tunnel will be sufficient needs to be
determined during the design phase of the system.
A sensor in each nest will monitor the presence of an
insert block.
Once the robot cycled the insert blocks, the shuttle table
will move outside the guarded area and the operator can
service the shuttle.
Visual alarms and an audible will inform the operator
about the status of the system during operation.
Note:
· System will be controlled thru the Selogica
controller.
· Interface for handshake signals on the Multilift. Work cell safety guarding includes:
· Constructed of aluminum profile with PVC sheet.
· Openings for the outfeed conveyor.
· Opening for shuttle system.
