Workpiece automatic loader ROBOLOAD

Product overview
For radius internal cylindrical grinding machines, STUDER has developed a loader solution based on a robot cell. The loader is suitable for chuck parts up to 100 mm (3.93") in length and a maximum part diameter of 260 mm (10.24"), covering a large portion of the component ranges produced on these machines. Parts are supplied via a standardized, adjustable grid rack system. The base module housing, which includes a loading hatch as standard, is adapted to the machine design and enables safe and clean operation of the system.

Advantages

• Standard automation for a wide range of chuck parts
• Advanced set-up wizard for fast and easy configuration
• Quick set-up and retooling in under 15 minutes
• Very simple workpiece supply via grid racks
• No robot programming knowledge required
• Short delivery times due to standardized design
• Expandable to accommodate future requirements
