Electric connector molding station / Poland
Automation of the process, which until now was carried out fully manually. A station cooperating with an injection molding machine performing overmoulding and quality tests of electrical connectors. A process with a high level of difficulty due to the unpredictable behavior of the cable bundles and the different lengths of the wires handled.
- a stand built on the basis of two rotary tables and a Kuka 6-axis robot
- a process supported by two operators carrying out the initial assembly of connectors in the housing
- automatic unloading and loading of the connector to the injection molding machine using a 6-axis robot along with cutting the ingot
- quality tests using the Keyence vision system (overmoulding quality assessment)
