We programmed and commissioned a plant in Bratislava (Slovakia) for the assembly of the dual-mass flywheel (DMF) for the gear manufacturer ZF. The two KUKA JET robots placed on a carriage for transporting the parts to the individual processing stations posed a particular challenge.
Technical Details
Project
- Assembly of the dual mass flywheel for ZF in Bratislava (Slovakia)
Installation
- Station for inserting rivets in the flywheel with a KUKA robot scara KRC5
- Sprocket assembly: The sprockets are supplied from a storage, inductively heated and shrunk onto the flywheel with an electro-mechanical press
- Subsequent testing station controls the axial and radial position of the sprocket using a camera
- Balancing station
- The grease station fills the DMF with grease, the cover is applied and pressed in electro-mechanically
- Finally, the fully assembled and tested work pieces are preserved and made available on an delivery conveyor to the worker for packaging
Controls
- 5x S7-300 with OP77B and POSMO drives to control individual stations
- 1x S7-300 with MP277 as head control for security functions and order control
- 1x KUKA KRC5 scara
- 2x KUKA KR60 Jet
Features
- Pre-alignment of the stacked raw parts (plates)
- Alignment device for 2 components
- Detection of the stack height by the robot
- Unloading and loading in one step
