Applications

Work feeder

Before improvement

  • ・Work was fed using pneumatic cylinders.

Problem

  • ・The cylinder protruded quite a bit and blocked the aisles.
  • ・The stacker handled a variety of products, requiring the work speed to be adjusted, which cannot be done on pneumatic cylinders.

Solution

  • ・Compact: There was less protruding into the aisles, making passage easier.
  • ・Automation: Enabled feed speed control through inverter control.
