Robot Type Manipulator for Serving of a Bolts Hardening System Outline

Abstract

The paper work refers to a flexible manufacturing cell where the bolts hardening system within a relatively wide range of dimensions is completely automatic. For this purpose, a robot type manipulator serving an induction hardening system is used. The manufacturing cell consists of: - a warehouse where the bolts to be hardened are located on a slightly inclined plane, so that the bolts to successively come by rolling to the place where the are taken over by manipulator. - a robot type manipulator for handling the parts from the warehouse for bolts to be hardened, on the hardening system and further into the hardened parts container. - an induction hardening system for axles or bolts
