DRPS Provides Completely Automated Shape Cutting Operation
Automated Concepts introduces DRPS - Dynamic Robotic Parts Sorting - which automates the tedious task of removing cut shapes from the skeleton produced on a 2D shape cutting machine.
Council Bluffs, IA (PRWEB) April 17, 2006 -- Automated Concepts Inc. (ACI) introduces Dynamic Robotic Parts Sorting – DRPS – which automates the tedious task of removing cut shapes from the skeleton produced on a 2D shape cutting machine. DRPS also converts nesting data to robotic paths automatically.
Many manufacturers using CNC shape cutting machines automate the sheet handling for loading and unloading the cutting machine. However, the removal of the shapes from the skeleton in most cases is done manually. But with ACI’s patent-pending DRPS, manufacturers will have a completely automated shape cutting operation that:
| | - Provides unattended material handling for ‘lights-out’ operation;
- Improves production throughput;
- Offers a seamless process from sheet, nesting and shape cutting to part removal;
- Reduces operating costs;
- Maintains job order integrity;
- Assures an organized and repeatable process.
|
The DRPS system from Automated Concepts is capable of unloading cut parts by job or offloading cut parts to pallets, shelves or conveyors. And DRPS easily integrates with a manufacturers’ existing CNC cutting operations.
Features of the DRPS system include a multi-axis FANUC robot and controller, application specific grippers, configurable safety systems, stack height collision detection, job order tracking & reporting, and optimized part placement.
