Efficient parts transfer
06 October 2014
Offering an efficient transfer solution for hot forming, Strothmann’s TransferFEEDER SRT 3/040 features three linear axes with highly dynamic drives, enabling it to perform programmed motion sequences, with parts transfer times under two seconds reported.
The press does not need to be opened as wide as in a robot automation setup. The compact feeder handles two parts at once. The maximum payload including the tooling is 40kg per side. A central lubrication system ensures minimal maintenance requirements.
Another of the company's products, the HighSpeedTransfer, enables tandem press lines to be operated at full capacity. This servo linear technology system for parts handling supports up to 16 strokes/min. Four actuated linear axes and one actuated rotating axis carry out smooth orientations.
