Heavy-Duty Gantry Robot for Panel & Pulp Molding Handling | High-Payload Loading/Unloading Automation

Heavy-Duty Gantry Robot for Panel & Pulp Molding Handling | High-Payload Loading/Unloading Automation

Product Description:
This heavy-duty gantry robot is engineered for fully automated, precise, and reliable loading and unloading of sheet materials (like panels,glass and composite materials) and three-dimensional products (like pulp molding products). Built on a rigid modular frame, it offers a highly customizable working envelope and end-effector options to seamlessly integrate into production lines, replacing manual labor and enhancing efficiency, consistency, and safety.

Composition of Production Line Integration:

• Rigid Modular Gantry Frame (X, Y, Z axes)

• High-Precision Servo Drive Systems & Linear Guides

• Customizable End-Effector (Mechanical Gripper, Vacuum Suction Cup Array, Specialized Fixture)

• Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) & Motion Control System

• Safety Fencing & Light Curtains (Optional)

• Integration Interface with Upstream/ Downstream Equipment (Conveyors, Presses, Dryers)

• Operator Control Panel (HMI)

Technical Parameters:

Application:

• 板材行业: Automatic feeding/unloading for CNC routers, panel saws, painting lines, and stacking/de-stacking of plywood, MDF, particleboard, metal sheets.

• 纸浆模塑行业: High-speed pick-and-place of wet/dry pulp molded products (如 trays, tableware) from molding presses to conveyors or drying racks, stacking, and palletizing.

Customization:
The core value of our system lies in its extensive customization. We tailor the travel range, structure rigidity, payload capacity, movement speed, and most critically, the end-effector tooling (vacuum area, gripper type, special fixtures) to handle your specific product's size, weight, shape (flat sheets or complex 3D pulp molds), and material surface.

Feature:

• High Rigidity & Precision: Ensures stable, accurate positioning for repetitive handling tasks.

• Flexible Tooling: Quick-change end-effectors allow one system to handle multiple product types.

• High Reliability: Designed for 24/7 operation in industrial environments with minimal maintenance.

• Seamless Integration: Easy communication with upstream and downstream machines for coordinated automation.

• Improved Safety: Removes workers from repetitive, strenuous, or hazardous manual handling roles.

Support and Services:
We provide complete project support, including layout design, installation supervision, comprehensive programming & operation training, a one-year warranty, remote diagnostic support, and readily available spare parts.

Packing and Shipping:
Major structural components are securely packed in wooden crates. Precision guides and electrical components are separately boxed and protected against moisture and shock. Shipping terms (FOB, CIF, etc.) are negotiable based on destination.

FAQ:

• Q: Can it handle fragile products like wet pulp molded items?

  • A: Absolutely. Through customizable vacuum cup tooling (using soft cups and adjustable suction force) and gentle motion profiles, it can handle delicate items without damage.

• Q: How is it programmed? Is it difficult for our operators to learn?

  • A: It is programmed via an intuitive teach pendant with a graphical interface. We provide hands-on training to ensure your operators can confidently run and perform basic program adjustments.

• Q: Can one gantry robot serve multiple machines?

  • A: Yes, its large customizable working area can be designed to cover the infeed and outfeed points of multiple stations (如 multiple presses or CNCs), maximizing ROI.

• Q: What is the lead time for a custom-sized system?

  • A: Lead time varies based on the complexity of customization. Standard modular designs have shorter lead times. A detailed timeline is provided after the finalization of technical specifications.

• Q: Do you provide the integration engineering with our existing production line?

  • A: Yes, we offer turnkey solutions. Our engineers will work with you to design the interface (mechanical and electrical) for seamless integration with your specific conveyors, presses, or control systems.
