- the handling device 24 removes the reel 11 from the memory 21.
- the handling device 24 moves to the waiting position. Only then is the access (gate 18) to the loading area 13 automatically opened. The empty pallet 14 is removed and the new full pallet 14 is positioned. By an acknowledgment, e.g. can be done manually by the operator or automatically by autonomous vehicles, we closed the gate 18 again. The handling device 24 then begins to approach the new pallet 14 and to fill the memory 21. Prior to loading the memory 21, however, the loading of the bobbin change devices 12 has priority.
- the handling device 24 is switched off with the handling element 25 as soon as an access, namely a gate 18 and / or a door 19, is opened.
- the Bobinen grillfunktion is stopped while the normal Abspul congress the Bobinen grillvor substances 12 continues to run.
- the stack 15 on the pallet 14 and in the memory 21 must be measured after starting the automation cell 10, 34 in terms of their height. The same applies in case an access has been opened. In the latter case, however, the calibration is only necessary if an operator has entered the loading area 13 and thus triggered the light barrier 22.
- the first stack 15 viewed in the Y direction first becomes measured and then worked off.
- the rear stack 15 in the Y direction can only be measured after the front stack 15 has been processed. It can also be a measurement and processing in progressing X-direction.

Der Schwenkarmroboter 35 weist ebenfalls eine vertikale Achse, nämlich die Z-Achse auf. Die Z-Achse ist in Z-Richtung unbeweglich ausgebildet. Das bedeutet, dass die Z-Achse zu keiner Zeit und in keiner Position nicht nach oben aus der Automatisierungszelle 34 herausragt. Die Z-Achse ist ortsfest platziert, wodurch die Z-Achse weder in linearer und horizontaler X-Richtung noch in linearer und horizontaler Y-Richtung bewegbar ist. Der Z-Achse ist das Handhabungselement 25 zugeordnet.The Schwenkarmroboter 35 also has a vertical axis, namely the Z-axis. The Z axis is immovable in the Z direction. This means that the Z-axis does not protrude up out of the
Genauer ist der Z-Achse ein Schlitten 36 zugeordnet, der entlang der Z-Achse in Z-Richtung bewegbar ist. An dem Schlitten 36 ist ein Schwenkarm 37 angeordnet. Dieser Schwenkarm 37 ist um eine vertikal ausgerichtete Achse, nämlich die ϕ-Achse, schwenkbar. In der gezeigten Ausführungsform sind die ϕ-Achse und die Z-Achse identisch. Mit anderen Worten ist der Schwenkarm 37 um die Z-Achse schwenkbar. Die ϕ-Achse kann jedoch auch versetzt zur Z-Achse verlaufen.More specifically, the Z-axis is associated with a carriage 36 which is movable along the Z-axis in the Z-direction. On the carriage 36, a
Der Schwenkarm 37 ist radial ausgerichtet und definiert die horizontal verlaufende R-Achse. Die R-Achse ist in R-Richtung unbeweglich ausgerichtet und verfügt über einen Schlitten 38, der seinerseits am Schwenkarm 37 entlang in radialer R-Richtung verfahrbar ist. An diesem Schlitten 38 ist das Handhabungselement 25 angeordnet, das in der zur ersten Ausführungsform beschriebenen Weise ausgebildet ist. Mit dem Schlitten 38 ist das Handhabungselement 25 in R-Richtung bewegbar.The
Im Falle der Verwendung eines Portalroboters 27 der oben beschriebenen Ausführung weist die Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 den Aufnahmedorn 33 auf, der horizontal ausgerichtet ist, so dass die Bobinen 11 in senkrechter Position an die Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 übergebbar sind. Im Falle der Verwendung eines Schwenkarmroboters 35 der oben beschriebenen Ausführung ist der Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 ein Greifring 39 zugeordnet. Der Greifring 39 dient zur Aufnahme der Bobinen 11 und ist einerseits um 180° drehbar, so dass falsch positionierte Bobinen 11 in die richtige Lage gebracht werden können, und andererseits um 90° drehbar, so dass die Bobinen 11 nach dem waagerechten Auflegen in die senkrechte Position bringbar sind. Zur Fixierung der Bobinen 11 weist der Greifring 39 Klemmelemente 40 auf, die z.B. pneumatisch betätigbar sind. Mit diesen Klemmelementen 40 sind die Bobinen 11 von außen an ihrer Umfangsfläche greifbar.In the case of using a gantry robot 27 of the embodiment described above, the
Im folgenden wird das Verfahrensprinzip für die beiden gezeigten Ausführungsformen näher erläutert:
- Für den Fall, dass die Handhabungseinrichtung 24 als Portalroboter 27 ausgebildet ist, befindet
sich das Portal 28 zunächst in Warteposition.Sobald eine Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 einen Wechsel einer Bobine 11 initiiert hat, bewegt sichdas Portal 28 aus der Warteposition. Die Bewegungen desPortals 28 zur Handhabung der Bobinen 11 erfolgen entlang der X-Achse und der Y-Achse in horizontaler Richtung. Die Bewegungen des Schlittens 30 erfolgen in vertikaler Richtung entlang der in Z-Richtung unbeweglichen Z-Achse.Das Portal 28mit dem Handhabungselement 25 bewegt sich inden Beschickungsbereich 13, um eine volle Bobine 11von der Palette 14 aufzunehmen. Dabei wird der Bobinenstapel angefahren, von dem dieletzte Bobine 11 entnommen wurde. Ist die angefahrene Stapelposition leer, bewegt sich die Handhabungseinrichtung 24 zum nächstenStapel 15. Alternativ können dieStapel 15 einer Reihe auch wechselseitig abgearbeitet werden. Wenn die vorderen Stapelpositionen leer sind, wird die nächste Zeile auf derPalette 14 angefahren. Wenn dieletzte Bobine 11von der Palette 14 entnommen wurde, wird eine neuePalette 14 angefordert.Wenn keine Bobine 11 auf derPalette 14 liegt, wird der Speicher 21 angefahren. ZumAufnehmen einer Bobine 11von der Palette 14 oder ausdem Speicher 21 wird dieBobine 11 angefahren und deren Mitte ermittelt. Dies erfolgt in üblicher Form mittels eines geeigneten Elementes zur Lageerkennung. Sobald die Aufnahmeposition ermittelt wurde, taucht die Bobinen-Greifereinheit inden Bobinenkern 26. Durch Ansteuern des Greiferzylinders werden Segmente im Greifer radial verschoben, so dass der Bobinenkem 26 geklemmt wird. Dabei können die Segmente an unterschiedliche Kerndurchmesser der Bobine 11 angepasst werden. Die nunmit dem Handhabungselement 25verbundene Bobine 11 wird.dann zur Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 transportiert.
- In the event that the handling device 24 is designed as a gantry robot 27, the portal 28 is initially in the waiting position. Once a
Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 has initiated a change of areel 11, the portal 28 moves from the waiting position. The movements of the portal 28 for handling thereels 11 take place along the X-axis and the Y-axis in the horizontal direction. The movements of thecarriage 30 take place in the vertical direction along the Z axis immovable in the Z direction. The portal 28 with the handlingelement 25 moves into theloading area 13 to receive afull reel 11 from thepallet 14. The stack of bobbins is approached, from which thelast bobbin 11 was removed. If the started stacking position is empty, the handling device 24 moves to thenext stack 15. Alternatively, thestacks 15 of a row can also be processed alternately. When the front stack positions are empty, the next row on thepallet 14 is approached. If thelast bobbin 11 has been removed from thepallet 14, anew pallet 14 is requested. If noreel 11 is on thepallet 14, thememory 21 is started. To pick up areel 11 from thepallet 14 or from thememory 21, thereel 11 is approached and determined its center. This is done in the usual form by means of a suitable element for position detection. As soon as the receiving position has been determined, the bobbin-type gripper unit dives into thebobbin core 26. By activating the gripper cylinder, segments in the gripper are displaced radially, so that thebobbin core 26 is clamped. The segments can be adapted to different core diameter of thereel 11. Thebobbin 11, which is now connected to thehandling element 25, is then transported to the bobbin-changingdevice 12.
Für den Fall, dass die Bobine 11 eine falsche Position (z.B. bei falscher Aufreißposition) hat, wird sie zunächst dem Bobinenwender 23 zugeführt und von dieser um 180° gedreht. Der Bobinenwender hält dazu die Bobine 11 an ihrer Umfangsfläche und dreht dann die Bobine 11. Anschließend fährt die Handhabungseinrichtung 24 zum Bobinenwender zurück und übernimmt die Bobine 11 wieder. Die nunmehr korrekt ausgerichtete Bobine 11 wird zur Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 transportiert. Die Handhabungseinrichtung 24 wartet mit der um 90° verschwenkten, senkrecht aufgerichteten Bobine 11 vor der Aufnahmeposition eines Drehtellers der Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12. Wenn der Drehteller die richtige Auflegeposition erreicht hat, wird die Bobine durch das Element 32 zum Schieben auf den Aufnahmedorn 33 geschoben. Im Anschluss fährt das Portal 28 in die Warteposition.In the event that the
Das Verfahrensprinzip mit einem Schwenkroboter 35 als Handhabungseinrichtung 24 entspricht im Wesentlichen dem gerade beschriebenen Prinzip. Allerdings erfolgen die Bewegungen des Schwenkarmroboters 34 in horizontaler Ebene als Schwenkbewegung um die ϕ-Achse und als lineare Bewegung mittels des Schlittens 38 entlang der R-Achse sowie in linearer, vertikaler Richtung mittels des Schlittens 36 entlang der Z-Achse. Die vom Schwenkarmroboter 34 von der Palette 14 oder aus dem Speicher 21 entnommene Bobine 11 wird mittig im Greifring 39 positioniert, der zu diesem Zwecke von der Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 weggeklappt horizontal ausgerichtet ist. Die Bobine 11 wird durch den Greifring 39 bzw. dessen Klemmelemente 40 fixiert. Sobald der Greifiing 39 die Bobine 11 gegriffen hat, löst sich der Schwenkarmroboter 34. Mittels des Greifrings kann die Bobine 11 links oder rechts herum um 90° in die richtige Position (beispielsweise bei falscher Aufreißposition) gedreht werden. Der Greifring 39 mit der Bobine 11 wartet nunmehr darauf, dass die Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 den Bobinendrehteller in der Aufnahmeposition hat. Dann kann die Bobine 11 durch den Greifring 39 um 90° in die senkrechte Position geschwenkt und auf den Aufnahmedorn 33 geschoben werden.The method principle with a swivel robot 35 as a handling device 24 substantially corresponds to the principle just described. However, the movements of the
Bei einer erneuten Anforderung einer neuen Bobine 11 durch die Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 wird der oben beschriebene Vorgang wiederholt. Sollte die Palette 14, von der die Bobine 11 gegriffen werden soll, leer sein, entnimmt die Handhabungseinrichtung 24 die Bobine 11 aus dem Speicher 21.Upon a renewed request for a
Wenn eine Palette 14 ausgetauscht werden muss, fährt die Handhabungseinrichtung 24 in die Warteposition. Erst dann wird der Zugang (Tor 18) zum Beschickungsbereich 13 automatisch geöffnet. Die leere Palette 14 wird entnommen und die neue volle Palette 14 wird positioniert. Durch eine Quittierung, die z.B. manuell durch den Bediener selbst oder automatisch durch autonome Fahrzeuge erfolgen kann, wir das Tor 18 wieder geschlossen. Die Handhabungseinrichtung 24 beginnt dann, die neue Palette 14 anzufahren und den Speicher 21 zu füllen. Vorrang vor der Bestückung des Speichers 21 hat jedoch die Beschickung der Bobinenwechselvonichtungen 12.When a
Aus Sicherheitsgründen wird die Handhabungseinrichtung 24 mit dem Handhabungselement 25 abgeschaltet, sobald ein Zugang, nämlich ein Tor 18 und/oder eine Tür 19, geöffnet wird. Dabei wird auch die Bobinenwechselfunktion gestoppt, während der normale Abspulbetrieb der Bobinenwechselvorrichtung 12 weiter läuft.For safety reasons, the handling device 24 is switched off with the handling
Die Stapel 15 auf der Palette 14 sowie im Speicher 21 müssen nach dem Starten der Automatisierungszelle 10, 34 bezüglich ihrer Höhe vermessen werden. Gleiches gilt für den Fall, dass ein Zugang geöffnet wurde. Im letzteren Fall ist die Einmessung jedoch nur erforderlich, wenn ein Bediener den Beschickungsbereich 13 betreten und damit die Lichtschranke 22 ausgelöst hat. Bei der Verwendung des Portalroboters 27 werden aufgrund der festen Z-Achse zuerst die in Y-Richtung betrachtet vorderen Stapel 15 vermessen und dann abgearbeitet. Die in Y-Richtung hinteren Stapel 15 können erst nach Abarbeitung der vorderen Stapel 15 eingemessen werden. Es kann auch eine Vermessung und Abarbeitung in fortschreitender X-Richtung erfolgen. Bei der Verwendung des Schwenkarmroboters 35 wird der Schlitten 36 entlang der Z-Achse in seine obere Position bewegt. Dann wird der Schlitten 38 entlang der R-Achse verfahren. Erst anschließend schwenkt der Schwenkarm 37 um die ϕ-Achse auf die jeweilige Stapelposition.The
