Semi-Automatic Applicators

OP1

Using this semi-automated option, the adhesive component placement cycle is initiated by the operator placing the middle-finger of each hand (simultaneously) on the activation buttons on the left and right sides of the unit. This keeps the operator’s hands away from the process during the placement. After the placement cycle is completed the operator will remove the completed target part from the nest and places a new target part before initiating the next cycle.

OP2

The two stations of the OP2 are the operator side station and the placement station within the machine. The OP2 comes with a rotary table for these two stations built with a light curtain sensor that registers hand movement in the operator’s station – this ensures safety and efficiency. The operator places the part that needs the adhesive placement in his or her operator station and when their hands vacate the station, the rotary table automatically turns and positions itself for assembly. As one part is being assembled, the other side of the rotary table is ready for part insertion/removal.

OP3

Using this semi-automated option, the adhesive component placement cycle is initiated by the operator placing a target part inside the drawer containing the nest and closing the drawer fully. Protective shields keeps the operator’s hands as well as any other persons near the machine away from the process during the placement. After the placement cycle is completed, the drawer automatically ejects allowing the operator to remove the completed target part from the nest and to place a new target part before initiating the next cycle by closing the drawer.
