A leader in vacuum handling technology
since 1968, ANVER is continually developing new products to
improve your company's productivity, from individual components to custom
engineered systems. If you've been looking to improve productivity through
vacuum automation, we can tailor a system or a complete vacuum end effector to meet your needs.
Automated CNC machines are technically
the next level up from our hoist suspended manually operated vacuum lifters.
Automated vacuum transfer of sheet and plate is very cost effective for repetitive
loading. Most fabricators or manufacturers feeding expensive cutting machinery
can justify the cost.
There is no need to worry about
existing equipment and material flow routes. Our "bridge-the-saddle", automated
vacuum transfer system was designed to make installation within existing
conditions easy and economical. And now with our units, you can locate the
transfer arm so it does not interfere with machine setup or other equipment.
After proper analysis of the
application, we can create a specific system from existing designs to provide
optimum configuration and performance parameters. This method avoids 'overkill'
assuring the best return on investment.
Typical applications include loading
and unloading of sheet and plate to laser, plasma, and burning tables, turret
punch presses, and shears.
Benefits:
'Bridge-and-Straddle' type
structure allows easy adaptation to your existing layout and machinery.
Performs repetitive jobs precisely
and automatically.
Allows virtually unmanned
operation. An operator just needs to monitor the operation and check the cut
quality but not to operate the machine. Permits the operator to do other
things, greatly increasing productivity.
Out feed can be set up for
immediate or future pick up.
Allows older manual machinery to be
automated.
Features:
Carefully crafted vacuum lifting
heads that leave no mark or damage to the material. Fully adjustable cups
and crossarms to handle all standard and special sheet and plate sizes.
Easy to use, menu-driven
programmable PC software.
Pneumatic, AC brake motor, and
electric servo drive systems to meet your specific accuracy, speed, and handling
requirements.
Steel U-Channel weldment provides
lightweight rigidity along with excellent mounting surfaces and protection
for electrical cables and air lines.
Precision machine tool type linear
bearings provide zero backlash travel on both the horizontal and vertical
axis.
Wide end U-Channel vertical slide
provides stable mounting for vacuum cup and frame end-effectors.
Rectangular steel supports with
angle brackets at the corners provide a rigid structure to withstand maximum
acceleration with minimum deflection.
Horizontal carriage plate provides
a convenient enclosed mounting area for pneumatic valves, sensors, and
terminal strips.
Over-travel switches and
energy-absorbing end stops are provided to prevent runaway damage.
Wherever possible, surfaces are
anodized, plated, painted or otherwise treated for maximum protection.
Special materials and bellows can be provided for more severe conditions.
Options:
Programmable vacuum cups
Octopus vacuum heads consisting of
hundreds of small cups to lift cut sheets completely intact
Individual cup sensing valves
Magnetic separators
Air knife separating technology
Peeler vacuum cups
Integration with conveyors and/ or
tower sheet storage and retrieval systems
Benefits:
Carefully crafted vacuum lifting
heads that leave no mark or damage to the material. Fully adjustable cups
and crossarms to handle all standard and special sheet and plate sizes.
