Rotary
Handlers Our F series handlers perform accurate part placement with indexing or oscillating rotary motions. Both lift axis can be symmetrical or non-symmetrical for pick & place applications. Rotary motions can typically cycle faster than linear handlers. Gripper actuation time is included in the timing motion to keep the drive motor rotating continuously to eliminate the need for expensive motor drives. One revolution of the input shaft completes a full cycle for easy synchronization. Servo or clutch brake drives are offered for frequent cycle rates while running in cycle on demand modes. Each timing motion can be customized to synchronize with supporting equipment, commonly used in packaging environments.
Linear
Handlers Each handler combines dual precision linear slides for accurate part placement. X and Y motions are blended to deliver vibration free motions at any speed. Just like the rotary handlers, each motion is customized to include gripper actuation time if running continuously or on demand cycle modes. Designed to be driven and mounted in a side-by-side or circular layout, they are easily synchronized to other supporting equipment. One revolution of the input shaft completes a full cycle for easy synchronization. Our GX series pressing module is an essential component to furnish the final crimp on your assembly processes. We can incorporate pick & place and pressing options on our assembly machines.
Walking
Beam Engineering designed our walking beams with simplicity to enhance reliability. The housing is narrow for back to back mounting but wide to maintain feed pitch stability. Input shafts are oriented to couple multiple units, driven from supporting equipment or driven with standalone motors. Round linear cross slides tolerate large bending moments to support unbalanced loads from any direction. Motions are customized to your needs with symmetrical or nonsymmetrical lift axis. One revolution of the input shaft completes a full cycle for easy synchronization. Mounting is offered in multiple plans for feeding as shown, on the side for escapement or upside-down for pickup applications.
