Automation project completed for a company specializing in the production of plastic systems for water supply.
The project required an automated system capable of assembling plastic drains with their corresponding mounting nuts with high precision and reliability.
Due to the wide variety of drain models, the solution needed to be flexible, easily adaptable, and capable of quick product changeovers without long downtimes.
In addition, the client required a fully automated nut-feeding system and a pallet elevator to streamline material handling and reduce manual labor.
A modular and fully automated assembly system designed for flexibility, precision, and fast product changeovers.
The system performs automatic assembly of plastic drains with their corresponding mounting nuts.
Automatic nut feeding is achieved using a belt system that supplies the machine with nuts, which are then pressed onto the corresponding drain.
To handle the variety of drain models, the machine was designed with a modular approach, featuring several interchangeable tool sets for different product types.
Quick and easy tool changes allow the client to swiftly and accurately adapt the machine to new drain models.
An elevator for the nut-filled pallet was also integrated into the system, meeting all material handling requirements.
• Modular tool sets for different drain models
• Automatic nut feeding via belt system
• Precision pressing mechanism
• Pallet elevator for nut supply
• Integrated control and safety systems
The belt-based nut feeding system ensures consistent and reliable supply of mounting nuts to the assembly station.
Interchangeable tool sets allow fast reconfiguration of the machine for different drain models.
The integrated pallet elevator automates material transport, reducing manual handling and improving overall process efficiency.
This modular concept ensures long-term flexibility and scalability of the production line.
The delivered automation system enables fast, precise, and repeatable assembly of plastic drains and mounting nuts. Thanks to the modular tool concept, the client can quickly adapt the machine to new product variants with minimal downtime. The automated
