Application:

Build a  machine to  integrate into existing assembly line to orient and press seals into front and rear locations on engine.  Engine will move into position via an overhead conveyor system.  Seal orientation must be correct prior to installation.  Force and distance of seal press must be verified. Fully automated; seal magazine must hold 2 hours of seals (60 second cycle time).    Automatic lube system on moving points must be installed.

Equipment:

Engine moves into position and is precisely located via a lift system.  Seal is picked up and orientation is checked via a sensor; seal is rotated 180 degrees, if necessary. Grippers load the seal onto press tooling.  Automated Drive and Design 12K Ball Screw Press used to precisely press to position. Additionally this machine is equipped with PanelView operator interface; PC and flat screen monitor for signature analysis; pneumatic cylinders, grippers, and rotary actuators;  safety mat; lube system, fully guarded and interlocked.
