The parts automation Pick & Place transfer unit is used for running Op. 10 to Op. 20 between two CNC lathes. Toellner's design enhances the flawless transfer of Op. 10 machined parts from one servo-driven parts loading/unloading system to a second, running Op. 20 in a fast, constant and smooth automated process. After Op. 10 has finished machining, the part automatically transfers between the two cells via a Toellner conveyor system. The pick and place gripper arm assembly on cell two gathers the part, turns it around 180°, and then places the part in the nest assembly, ready for Op. 20 machining, before moving on to Op. 30 using the same technology.
