Flip-Over Module
No batch interruptions with the Flip-Over Unit
Our Flip-over Module was developed as an addition to any RoboJob system to flip products between two operations of the CNC machine. This enables the component to be loaded into the machine with a different orientation for the next operation.
This module includes a physical flip-over stand that we seamlessly integrate into the RoboJob software. In your loading cycle, just drag this flip-over module in and the RoboJob software does the work for you. We calculate the robot's movements to and from this station depending on the dimensions of your product, so you don't have to worry about a thing.
Your win
The Flip-over Module looks like a simple extension to your RoboJob system, but its impact is way bigger than you might think.
- It enables your CNC machine to work unmanned even longer
- The higher the amount of spindle hours, the faster your investment is earned back
- No need to set up an additional chuck
- Your CNC programmes are easier as you only need to set them up for 1 fixture
- It simplifies setting up your tools And don't forget:
- It might even make sub-spindles obsolete
Many customers tell us: "the product comes off my machine finished in one go! This made me considerably decrease the lead time - so I can guarantee shorter delivery times! That gives me more orders with a higher margin!"
One simple addition, hours of unmanned machining
How does it work?
When the CNC machine finishes the first side of your component, the robot is called into the CNC machine to pick up the piece. The robot then exits the CNC machine and loads it onto the Flip-over unit, usually with the unprocessed side up. The robot then flips its gripper and regrips the component in the desired way. It's then loaded into your CNC machine again to continue the batch.
Do you want to rotate your milling product 90° instead of 180°? This is also possible and is included as standard with this module.
Only to be found at RoboJob
Our Flip-over Module was initially developed for lathes without a sub-spindle. The idea and elaboration excel in simplicity - and was therefore quickly introduced for milling machines as well. Both on 5-axis milling machines where the fixture is prepared for two operations, and on 3-axis milling machines where more than one fixture is used. It is all possible with this module!
