PENDEL
This machine version allows for automatic processing of spatial cutouts, various complex programmed hole shapes, using five sawing and one milling unit. The machine is primarily intended for milling and sawing in AL hollow profiles within the range of the stated technical parameters. Any other use, as well as use outside the stated range of technical parameters, is excluded.
The machine is designed as an intelligent CNC machining center designed according to predefined requirements for the scope of processing and the range of input materials.
Working with the machine is easy for operating personnel.
Control is intuitive via a touch display communication panel and zone push-button control panels.
Machining programs are stored directly in the machine, for specific profiles and types of required machining.
The program can be called up by specific input and selection on the touch panel, or simply by scanning the QR CODE of the production drawing using a hand-held scanner.
The graphics on the panel show the activated program, the machining result, and the position of the profile insertion.
The processing itself takes place in two closed cabins that proceed in succession.
The cuttings and chips are removed by a scraping conveyor. The conveyors are equipped with a separation device at the point of break to separate the chips and cuttings.
The processing area is illuminated.
The machine has two optically monitored working zones, which allows for continuous operation. While automatic processing takes place in one zone, the second zone allows the operator to insert and remove profiles.
The machine control has 14 CNC motor-positioned axes.
The profile clamping mechanisms of both working zones are equipped with automatic motorized positioning of the clamps, with symmetrical positioning of the spacing of the support table plates for any dimension within the working range.
The cutting is held in place by a pneumatic clamping mechanism with a tilting slide during carving.
The machine is equipped with an internet connection and EWON device for remote management of the Inverters, Servo-Drivers, PLC, and the machine's Touch Panel.
Technological process of the work cycle:
By turning on the machine with the main switch, the input conditions are automatically checked.
By meeting the input conditions, the machine is put into standby mode.
The standby state is signaled by a beacon optical signaling and a touch panel.
Basic entry requirements:
- The status of the safety circuits is checked.
- The two-zone optical barrier is activated
- Operating air pressure is checked
- The pneumatic branch is automatically activated to bring the pneumatic drives to their starting positions
- The servo axes are initialized and set to their starting positions, according to the order defined in the program.
- The state of cutting fluids for both cabins is checked
- By selecting the machining program, the machine automatically moves to the position for inserting the profile bar.
- The bar is inserted into a pneumatically controlled motor-positioned vice by placing it on automatically symmetrically distributed table supports.
- The vice is controlled by a button directly at the insertion point.
- After positioning the bar in the tip jaws, the clamping process is activated by the push-button controller. The clamping can be interrupted or returned after a step.
- The material clamp has optical position signaling.
Starting processing:
By starting the machining program, the machine automatically positions both cabins sequentially into the activated working zone.
Individual detailed machining macros are executed gradually in the machining program.
The machining process has a precisely defined order of individual steps.
The second working zone - inactive signals readiness for selecting a machining program and loading the material onto the worktable. By starting the machining program, the zone becomes active, which is indicated by a beacon signal, and the area of the zone becomes optically guarded.
After the automatic machining process in the first working zone is completed, the machining cabins automatically move to the second activated zone and the selected machining program starts.
The abandoned first working zone signals the status for removing the processed piece of material and loading a new one.
The positioning accuracy of sawing and milling units is 0.05mm, and the machining accuracy is +/-0.1mm.
The working area of the machine is in a covered, illuminated cabin. The cabin openings in the X-axis are fitted with bristles to minimize the scattering of chips.
Violation of the guarded zone in front of the cabin automatically interrupts the machine's work cycle. By resuming the cycle, the machine continues from the last executed machining macro.
The machine cabin is lined with noise insulation
The machine chassis is equipped with sliding guide plates to direct sawdust and cuttings to the digging conveyors of individual work zones.
