We develop individual product solutions which meet specialised vehicle assembly requirements.
Direct screwing system
"Fastener-loader"
With our patented direct screwing system it is possible to fit a larger number of screws economically and efficiently in shorter cycle times without further aids.
The core of the solution is our patented magazine
Despite the reduction down to essentials…. 100% availability.
The compact design permits the FASTener LOADer to be integrated into/retrofitted to existing screwing equipment.
Screws of various sizes can be processed within one screwing cycle. Conventional screws from adaptor spindles can also be integrated by moving the magazine.
Reduction of elements to the essentials, tool-free magazine exchange, use of maintenance-free dirt-resistant bearings.
We bring the screws to where they are needed
With this system the screws become finished screw fittings out of the box via various routes.
Features
The construction was designed so that the FASTener LOADer offers the following features in relation to the competition.
Sustainability
Sustainability through reducing the necessary technical elements down to essentials.
Environmentally friendly
Environmentally friendly due to the use of lubricant-free materials.
Efficiency
Energy savings through reducing active drives and storage of potential energy in the magazine.
Low-maintenance
Reduction of elements down to essentials, tool-free magazine replacement, use of maintenance-free dirt-resistant bearings.
LOADING
THE MAGAZINE
01
Manual
Optimum utilisation of staff through the option of manual loading
02
Robot arm
In highly complex systems with short cycle times the magazines are loaded by means of robots.
03
Magazine changer
With applications with low cycle times, complete magazines are replaced to use the cycle time to the full.
Screw cast-off
variants
01
Internal
cast-off
This guarantees the further processing of screw cases of NOK screws without large cycle time losses.
02
External
cast-off
The screws are then completely cast off out of the system if NOK.
USE of the FASTENER LOADER
IN THE PORSCHE PROJECT
The magazine permits screws of various sizes to be processed.
Our solutions guarantee
a smooth process
Economical operation
Intermediate spindles and a secure screw clamp in the magazine are no longer needed without internal electric or pneumatic drives. Energy savings due to reductions in drives and controls and maximum adaptability to changing screwing processes. Reduction of NC screw spindles to a minimum.
Innovative technology
Function integration leads to lighter and less complicated technology. Energy which is accessed via external operating mechanisms is stored in the magazine.
Flexible operation
Screws of various sizes can be processed within one screwing cycle. Conventional screws from adaptor spindles can also be integrated by moving the magazine.
Low-maintenance
The tool-free exchange of magazines allows them to be cleaned and maintained during normal operation without losing time.
FASTENER LOADER
areas of APPLICATION
Suitable FOR (ALMOST) ANY SCREWING TASK
The FASTener LOADer can (almost) always be integrated, both into a Cartesian NC screwing station and a six-axis robot.
INTEGRATION
&
RETROFITTING
The compact design permits the FASTener LOADer to be integrated into/retrofitted to existing screwing devices.
