Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Einrichtung zum Verpacken einer Materialbahnrolle in mehreren Verpackungsschritten, umfassend eine erste Station wenigstens zum Anbringen einer Umfangsverpackung an der Materialbahnrolle und mindestens eine weitere Station zum Anbringen der Außenstirndeckel an der mit der Umfangsverpackung versehenen Materialbahnrolle.The invention relates to a device for packaging a roll of web material in a plurality of packaging steps, comprising a first station at least for attaching a peripheral packaging to the material web roll and at least one further station for attaching the outer end cap to the web roll provided with the peripheral packaging.

Eine derartige Einrichtung findet beispielsweise in einer Anlage zum Herstellen einer Materialbahn ihre Verwendung. Die mittels einer Maschine zum Herstellen der Materialbahn hergestellte Materialbahn weist eine relativ große Breite von derzeit bis zu 12 m auf. Um für einen späteren Verbraucher, wie beispielsweise eine Druckerei oder dergleichen, verwendbar zu sein, muss die Materialbahn in schmalere Bahnen unterteilt werden. Diese schmaleren Materialbahnen müssen dann zu Wickelrollen, im weiteren Sinne wiederum Materialbahnrollen aufgewickelt werden. Hierzu wird eine dem Fachmann bekannte Wickelmaschine verwendet, die entweder nach dem Tragwalzenprinzip oder dem Stützwalzenprinzip funktioniert.Such a device is used, for example, in a plant for producing a material web. The material web produced by means of a machine for producing the material web has a relatively large width of currently up to 12 m. In order to be usable for a later consumer, such as a printing company or the like, the web must be divided into narrower webs. These narrower webs of material then have to be wound up into winding rolls, in a broader sense web rolls. For this purpose, a winding machine known to those skilled in the art is used, which works either by the support roller principle or the backup roller principle.

Die jeweilige Materialbahnrolle muss dann anschließend versandfertig verpackt werden. Dabei wird sie mit einer Umfangsverpackung und zwei stirnseitigen Falten versehen und entsprechend gekennzeichnet. Die versandfertige Verpackung der Materialbahnrolle wird üblicherweise innerhalb einer Einrichtung, einer so genannten Rollpackeinrichtung oder -maschine, in mehreren Verpackungsschritten bei Verwendung unterschiedlicher Stationen vollzogen. Dabei werden die einzelnen Verpackungsschritte von mehreren technischen Einrichtungen und Handlingsautomaten, insbesondere Robotern, bei Erreichung eines hohen Automatisierungsgrads erledigt. Die technischen Einrichtungen in den Stationen sind primär eine Vorrichtung zum Anbringen der Umfangsverpackung, wie sie beispielsweise aus der deutschen Patentschrift DE 102 43 464 B4 bekannt ist, eine Vorrichtung zum Erzeugen der stirnseitigen Falten, wie sie beispielsweise aus der deutschen Patentschrift DE 40 34 757 C2 bekannt ist, und eine Vorrichtung zum Anbringen eines Außenstirndeckels, wie sie beispielsweise aus der europäischen Patentanmeldung EP 1 157 929 A1 bekannt ist.The respective web roll must then be packaged ready to ship. It is provided with a peripheral packaging and two frontal folds and marked accordingly. The ready-to-ship packaging of the material web roll is usually carried out within a device, a so-called roll pack device or machine, in several packaging steps when using different stations. The individual packaging steps of several technical Equipment and handling machines, especially robots, done on achieving a high degree of automation. The technical facilities in the stations are primarily a device for attaching the peripheral packaging, as for example from the German patent DE 102 43 464 B4 is known, a device for generating the frontal wrinkles, as for example from the German patent DE 40 34 757 C2 is known, and an apparatus for attaching an outer end cover, as for example from the European patent application EP 1 157 929 A1 is known.

Eine derartige bekannte Einrichtung mit ihren technischen Einrichtungen und Handlingsautomaten ist jedoch durch einen erhöhten Raumbedarf gekennzeichnet. Überdies führt die Vielzahl von Einrichtungen und Handlingsautomaten zu erhöhten Anschaffungs-, Betriebs- und natürlich auch Wartungskosten. So muss die Einrichtung regelmäßig in einem größeren Umfang gewartet und gegebenenfalls wieder instand gesetzt werden.However, such a known device with its technical equipment and handling machines is characterized by an increased space requirement. Moreover, the variety of facilities and handling machines to increased acquisition, operating and of course maintenance costs. Thus, the facility must be regularly maintained on a larger scale and possibly repaired again.

Es ist noch anzumerken, dass der Begriff "Materialbahn" jegliche Art von Bahn, also eine Bahn aus Papier, Karton, Tissue und Kunststoff- oder Metallfolie, umfasst, die allesamt auf ähnliche Weise gehandhabt werden müssen. Die Erfindung ist also bei jeglicher Art einer Materialbahn entsprechend anwendbar.It should also be noted that the term "web" includes any type of web, ie a web of paper, cardboard, tissue and plastic or metal foil, all of which must be handled in a similar manner. The invention is therefore applicable to any type of material web accordingly.

Es ist also die Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Einrichtung der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, dass die Nachteile des Stands der Technik überwunden werden und die Voraussetzungen für eine möglichst einfache und effiziente Verpackung einer Materialbahnrolle geschaffen werden.It is therefore the object of the invention to develop a device of the type mentioned in such a way that the disadvantages of the prior art are overcome and the conditions for the simplest and most efficient packaging a web roll are created.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer Einrichtung der eingangs genannten Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass lediglich ein Roboter zum Verpacken der Materialbahnrolle an den mindestens zwei Stationen vorgesehen ist, wobei der mindestens einen Roboterarm aufweisende Roboter zum Zwecke der Ausführung der einzelnen Verpackungsschritte mit mehreren unterschiedlichen und vorzugsweise auswechselbaren Handhabungswerkzeugen an seinem Roboterarm bestückbar ist.This object is achieved in a device of the type mentioned in the present invention that only a robot for packaging the roll of web material is provided at the at least two stations, said at least one robotic arm having robots for the purpose of carrying out the individual packaging steps with several different and preferably interchangeable Handling tools on his robot arm can be equipped.

Die erfindungsgemäße Aufgabe wird auf diese Weise vollkommen gelöst.The object of the invention is completely solved in this way.

Die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung schafft eine außerordentlich gute Voraussetzung für eine mögliche Raumkonzentrierung der gesamten Einrichtung, da nur noch ein Roboter zum Verpacken der gesamten Materialbahnrolle vorgesehen ist. Im Wirkbereich dieses einzigen Roboters können dann die bekannten Stationen angeordnet sein, wobei der lediglich eine Roboter zudem geringere Anschaffungs-, Betriebs- und Wartungskosten für die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung mit sich bringt. Die Wiederinstandsetzungsaktivitäten der erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung halten sich also in einem vertretbaren Rahmen.The inventive device provides an extremely good condition for a possible space concentration of the entire device, since only one robot is provided for packaging the entire web roll. In the effective range of this single robot then the known stations can be arranged, the only one robot also brings lower acquisition, operating and maintenance costs for the inventive device with it. The restoration activities of the device according to the invention thus remain within a reasonable range.

Es kann also festgehalten werden, dass die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung die Nachteile des Stands der Technik gänzlich überwindet und die Voraussetzungen für eine möglichst einfache und effiziente Verpackung einer gesamten Materialbahnrolle schafft.It can therefore be stated that the device according to the invention completely overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art and creates the conditions for the simplest and most efficient packaging of an entire web roll.

Die hergestellte Verpackung der Materialbahnrolle kann dabei eine Versandverpackung für einen sicheren Versand zu einem Endverbraucher oder eine Hilfsverpackung für eine mögliche Papierfabrik-interne Umlagerung sein. Eine Hilfsverpackung umfasst gewöhnlich höchstens ein/zwei Lagen an Packpapier auf dem Außenumfang und verfügt meist nicht über Außenstirndeckel.The produced packaging material web roll can be a shipping container for safe shipment to an end user or an auxiliary packaging for a possible paper factory internal rearrangement. An auxiliary packaging usually comprises at most one / two layers of wrapping paper on the outer circumference and usually does not have outer end cover.

In einer ersten erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsform ist ein erstes Handhabungswerkzeug zum berührungslosen oder berührenden Messen der Rollenbreite ausgebildet und ist dementsprechend an die beiden Stirnseiten der der Materialbahnrolle durch den Roboterarm bringbar. Ein Handhabungswerkzeug, vorzugsweise das erste Handhabungswerkzeug, kann überdies zum berührungslosen oder berührenden Messen des Rollendurchmessers der Materialbahnrolle ausgebildet sein und dementsprechend auch an zumindest drei Punkten an den Umfang der Materialbahnrolle durch den Roboterarm bringbar sein. Die drei Punkte liegen dabei vorzugsweise in einer Ebene, die senkrecht zur Längsachse der Materialbahnrolle ausgerichtet ist. Dabei kann die berührungslose Messung der Rollenbreite und/oder des Rollendurchmessers der Materialbahnrolle bevorzugt mittels wenigstens eines Lasersensors erfolgen, wohingegen die berührende Messung der Rollenbreite und/oder des Rollendurchmessers der Materialbahnrolle bevorzugt mittels wenigstens eines Tasters erfolgen kann. Die eigentlichen, an dem mindestens einen Handhabungswerkzeugen anbringbaren Messwerkzeuge sind in der Fachwelt bereits bestens bekannt und zeichnen sich durch eine sehr gute Messgenauigkeit bei einer hohen Verfügbarkeit aus.In a first embodiment according to the invention, a first handling tool is designed for non-contact or touching measurement of the roller width and can accordingly be brought to the two end sides of the web roll by the robot arm. Moreover, a handling tool, preferably the first handling tool, may be designed for non-contact or contact-type measurement of the roll diameter of the web roll and accordingly also at least three points on the circumference of the roll of web material Robotic arm be brought. The three points are preferably in a plane which is aligned perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the web roll. In this case, the non-contact measurement of the roll width and / or the roll diameter of the material web roll can preferably be effected by means of at least one laser sensor, whereas the contacting measurement of the roll width and / or the roll diameter of the roll of web material can preferably be effected by means of at least one probe. The actual measurement tools that can be attached to the at least one handling tool are already well known in the art and are characterized by a very good measurement accuracy with a high level of availability.

Weiterhin ist in einer weiteren erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsform vorgesehen, dass ein weiteres Handhabungswerkzeug bevorzugt zum Kennzeichnen der Materialbahnrolle ausgebildet ist und dementsprechend an mindestens eine Stirnseite und/oder den Umfang der Materialbahnrolle durch den Roboterarm bringbar ist. Die Kennzeichnung der Materialbahnrolle erfolgt dabei bevorzugt mittels einer Anbringung eines bedruckten Inkjet-Aufklebers und/oder einer Anbringung einer RFID-Kennzeichnung, insbesondere eines aktivierten Transponders. Ein derartiger Transponder ist Teil eines RFID-Systems (Radio Frequency Identification), bestehend aus einem Transponder, einem Lesegerät mit zugehöriger Antenne, auch Reader genannt, und einer Integration mit Servern, Diensten und sonstigen Systemen wie zum Beispiel Warenwirtschaftssystemen. Er wird in Fachkreisen auch RFID-Etikett, Smart Tag, Smart Label, Schnüffelchip, RFID-Chip, RFID-Tag oder Funketikett genannt.Furthermore, it is provided in a further embodiment according to the invention that a further handling tool is preferably designed for marking the material web roll and, accordingly, can be brought to at least one end face and / or the circumference of the material web roll by the robot arm. The marking of the roll of web material is preferably carried out by means of an attachment of a printed inkjet sticker and / or an attachment of an RFID tag, in particular an activated transponder. Such a transponder is part of a RFID system (Radio Frequency Identification), consisting of a transponder, a reader with associated antenna, also called reader, and an integration with servers, services and other systems such as merchandise management systems. In professional circles, it is also called an RFID tag, smart tag, smart label, snoop chip, RFID chip, RFID tag or radio tag.

Ein weiteres Handhabungswerkzeug ist in einer weiteren erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsform bevorzugt zum Anbringen der Innenstirndeckel auf den beiden Stirnseiten der Materialbahnrolle ausgebildet, wobei die Innenstirndeckel in Abhängigkeit ihres Durchmessers in verschiedenen Innenstirndeckel-Depots gelagert sind. Das Innenstirndeckel-Depot ist hierbei vorzugsweise im Wirkbereich des einzigen Roboters angeordnet, so dass eine direkte und somit schnelle Versorgung der Einrichtung mit Innenstirndeckeln gewährleistet werden kann.Another handling tool is preferably formed in a further embodiment of the invention for attaching the inner end cover on the two end faces of the roll of web material, wherein the inner end cover are stored depending on their diameter in different inner end lid depots. The inner end cap depot is preferably arranged in the effective range of the single robot, so that a direct and thus fast supply of the device can be ensured with inner end caps.

Auch kann ein vorzugsweise weiteres Handhabungswerkzeug zum Anbringen der Außenstirndeckel auf den beiden Stirnseiten der nunmehr mit einer Umfangsverpackung versehenen Materialbahnrolle ausgebildet sein, wobei die Außenstirndeckel in Abhängigkeit ihres Durchmessers bevorzugt wiederum in verschiedenen Außenstirndeckel-Depots gelagert sind. Im Hinblick auf geringe Anschaffungskosten, die Verwendung einer qualifizierten Technik und möglichst kurze Taktzeiten kann das Handhabungswerkzeug zum Anbringen der Stirndeckel, also sowohl des Innenstirndeckels als auch des Außenstirndeckels, ein und dasselbe Handhabungswerkzeug sein.Also, a preferably further handling tool for attaching the outer end cover on the two end faces of the material web roll now provided with a peripheral packaging may be formed, wherein the outer end cover are preferably stored in different outer end cover depots depending on their diameter. With regard to low acquisition costs, the use of a qualified technique and the shortest possible cycle times, the handling tool for attaching the end covers, ie both the inner end cover and the outer end cover, one and the same handling tool.

Ferner kann in einer weiteren erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungsform ein vorzugsweise weiteres Handhabungswerkzeug zum Kennzeichnen der verpackten Materialbahnrolle ausgebildet sein und dementsprechend an mindestens eine Stirnseite und/oder den Umfang der verpackten Materialbahnrolle durch den Roboterarm bringbar sein. Die Kennzeichnung der verpackten Materialbahnrolle kann dabei wiederum, wie bereits beschrieben, bevorzugt mittels einer Anbringung eines bedruckten Inkjet-Aufklebers und/oder einer Anbringung einer RFID-Kennzeichnung, insbesondere eines aktivierten Transponders erfolgen. Erneut im Hinblick auf geringe Anschaffungskosten, die Verwendung einer qualifizierten Technik und möglichst kurze Taktzeiten kann das Handhabungswerkzeug zum Kennzeichnen der Materialbahnrolle und zum Kennzeichnen der verpackten Materialbahnrolle ein und dasselbe Handhabungswerkzeug sein.Furthermore, in a further embodiment according to the invention, a preferably further handling tool for identifying the packaged material web roll can be formed and accordingly can be brought to at least one end face and / or the circumference of the packaged material web roll by the robotic arm. The labeling of the packaged material web roll can in turn, as already described, preferably by means of an attachment of a printed inkjet sticker and / or an attachment of an RFID tag, in particular an activated transponder. Again in view of low acquisition costs, the use of a qualified technique and the shortest possible cycle times, the handling tool can be one and the same handling tool for marking the material web roll and for identifying the wrapped web roll.

Zum Zwecke eines einfachen, schnellen und übersichtlichen Betriebs der Einrichtung kann es vorteilhaft sein, wenn die verschiedenen Handhabungswerkzeuge für den Roboterarm des Roboters in einem gemeinsamen Handhabungswerkzeug-Depot gelagert sind. Dieses Depot kann dann beispielsweise zentral und wegoptimiert im Wirkbereich des einzigen Roboters angeordnet sein.For the purpose of a simple, quick and clear operation of the device, it may be advantageous if the various handling tools for the robotic arm of the robot are stored in a common handling tool depot. This depot can then be arranged, for example, centrally and optimally optimized in the effective range of the single robot.

Überdies können die mindestens zwei Stationen vorzugsweise unmittelbar benachbart zueinander angeordnet sein, wobei die Materialbahnrolle zwischen ihnen mittels eines Transportsystems, insbesondere eines Plattentransporteurs, bewegt werden kann. Hierfür ist der Roboter mit seinem mindestens einen Roboterarm und den daran anbringbaren Handhabungswerkzeugen bevorzugt zwischen den mindestens zwei Stationen bewegbar angeordnet. Die benachbarte Anordnung der mindestens zwei Stationen kann beispielsweise zueinander fluchtend, seitlich versetzt zueinander oder gegenüberliegend zueinander ausgeführt sein. Damit diese benachbarte Anordnung bestmöglich ausgenützt werden kann, ist der bewegbar angeordnete Roboter bevorzugt auf einer Verfahreinheit, beispielsweise einem vorzugsweise gesteuert/geregelt angetriebenen und positionierbaren Schlitten oder dergleichen, gelagert.Moreover, the at least two stations may preferably be immediate be arranged adjacent to each other, the web roll between them by means of a transport system, in particular a plate transporter, can be moved. For this purpose, the robot with its at least one robot arm and the handling tools attachable thereto is preferably arranged movably between the at least two stations.
