Autonomous handling system for bell-type furnaces
Integration of an overall concept
Hood furnaces consist of an incandescent base, a protective hood (hydrogen atmosphere) and a heating/cooling hood. This setting is traditionally manipulated very laboriously and with great skill using a hand-operated overhead crane. This is time-consuming and causes higher costs for the workshop.
For this reason, LCM has developed an autonomous handling system that automatically assembles the required configuration. Such a system can be operated 24/7 without the need for personnel.
Project partner: Ebnernen several of these areas can be optimized as a whole.
Requirements
- Integration of an overall concept for bell-type furnace systems with a fully automatic coil manipulation and stacking device
- The system can be operated without direct supervision
- Buffering of multiple batch stacks
Your benefit
- In simple hall constructions without a hall crane
- Implementation of higher charging heights
- Reduction in operating personnel
- Reduction of downtimes to half
- Increased occupational safety thanks to automatic operation
