BAR STORAGE
Return Speed is equipped with an angle-adjusting inclination storage between 0° and 20°. Return Speed has an unloading surface of 800 mm (31.49”) x 1500 mm (59.05”) covered by polyzene strips, that iprotect the piece during unloading. Return Speed can also feature a multiple rows unloading (from 1 to 5 rows, depending on the length of the unloaded piece).
AUTOMATIC MANAGEMENT
The RETURN SPEED unloader is controlled by a PLC touchscreen that interacts with a brushless motor and solenoid valves to regulate forward speed, thrust force and all automated features.
LATHE LOADER INTERFACE
STANDARD TUBE, direct interface between loader and lathe, is a structured tube that can be supplied in different lengths covered with polyurethane material of the maximum counter-spindle bar passage
DRIVE SYSTEM
In order to ease the liners insertion, the RETURN SPEED is equipped with a rail system that enables at 800 mm (31.49”) radial or axial displacement (alternative option), helping also the lathe servicing. The bar feeder fastening, on its rails, is provided by fast block hooks.
PIECE UNLOADING
RETURN SPEED unloads the piece by means of a pneumatic clamp protected in plastic material that blocks the piece to be unloaded and the position on the polythene channel at the unloading level where the subsequent rotation of the channel makes the piece roll onto the unloading magazine. This system (top automazioni patent) allows the piece to be unloaded into several magazine positions, increasing the number of pieces that can be unloaded by RETURN SPEED.
PIECE MANAGEMENT
RETURN SPEED has the ability to unload pieces from a min of 150mm up to a maximum of 1500mm and diameters ranging from Ø10 to Ø80. The work piece is unloaded in 23 sec. by an elastic clamp or magnet upon customer request. All the sockets and movements are performed by clamps or manipulators covered with plastic material to protect the piece finish.
QUADRO ELETTRICO / INTERFACCIA
RETURN SPEED includes an electrical system entirely designed and assembled in Top Automazioni with high quality brands such as: Phoenix, Eaton, Esa, Siboni. TOP AUTOMAZIONI includes any interface required by the lathe on its loaders wired to the specifications of the lathe manufacturers such as: 24-pole interface, profibus interface, ethercat interface, modular multipolar interface.
SELF ADJUSTING GUIDE CHANNEL
Return Speed is equipped with a polyzene channel (“v” section) that automatically adjusts within 10 seconds to the diameter set by plc.
PIECE MANAGEMENT
Return Speed unloads pieces from 200 mm (7.87”) to 1500 mm (59.05”) in lenght and from Ø12 to Ø80 mm ( Ø0,47” to Ø3,14”) in diameter. The unloading cycle lasts 23 seconds and it is performed by an elastic collet (or by a magnet on request). All the unloading procedure is carried on by pneumatic chucks covered in plastic material to protect the piece.
PIECE UNLOADING
The RETURN SPEED unloads the piece by means of a pneumatic chuck covered in
plastic material: the chuck locks the piece
and positions it on the polizene channel at the unloading position, then the channel rotates
and makes it slide on the storage. This system, patented by Top Automazioni, allows the piece to be unloaded in several, positions increasing the unloading capacity of the machine.
RETURN SPEED
RETURN SPEED is a work piece unloading system that is extremely suitable for those customers who produce long rods or shafts that cannot be unloaded in the lathe clamp.
The system is positioned behind the lathe counter-spindle, which, once finished working, moves to the home position and allows RETURN SPEED to hook the piece by means of a pusher which can be equipped with an elastic clamp or magnet, and then bring it inside the unloader that will place it on the storage magazine.
RETURN SPEED is extremely fast. In fact, it only takes 23 sec. to unload and reposition for the next piece. It is fully adjustable by PLC parameters and does not require long tooling times, just elastic clamp change time.
In order to correctly work, this type of unloader requires reductions inserted inside the lathe counter-spindle and RETURN SPEED is equipped with an axial movement of 800 mm to facilitate this operation.
It is a fast and reliable unloader with a working range from a minimum diameter of 12 mm to a maximum of 80 mm.
RETURN SPEED has an adjustable inclined unloading magazine with storage capacity equal to 800 mm for a length of 1500 mm, it can also be equipped with a multi-column version where the unloaded pieces can be stored on the magazine in several rows, maximum 5, increasing the unloading capacity.
The maximum length of the unloadable segment is given by the length of the counter spindle; the piece cannot rotate inside the RETURN SPEED unloader.
