ECONOMICAL ROBOTIC BENDING CELL

RoboCell is an affordable robotic bending cell from LVD Strippit that is capable of robotized bending as well as stand alone operation.

Posted: August 14, 2008

LVD Strippit presents RoboCell, an affordable robotic bending cell capable of robotized bending as well as stand alone operation. RoboCell offers mid-level automation, combining an LVD Strippit PPEB or Easy-Form® Series CNC press brake with a multi-axis Kuka robot to efficiently handle small to medium-sized components in capacities from 80 ton to 110 ton bending force and 2.5 m or 3.0 m table configurations.

RoboCell increases machine throughput by automatically loading, forming and stacking finished parts in an unmanned process, providing high-precision parts, shorter cycle times and lower production costs.

All functions of the RoboCell robot and press brake are controlled through instructions from an integrated off-line programming software solution, resulting in repeatable, high-quality formed parts produced in a non-stop process.

RoboCell may be integrated with an LVD Strippit Easy-Form® press brake. The patented Easy-Form® Laser system tracks the part during the bending process, providing real-time angle measurements, compensating for material variations and ensuring that every part is a good part. In addition to the robot and press brake, RoboCell includes hardware for all part handling requirements in the automated bending process. RoboCell is equipped with LVD Strippit's CADMAN® Touch intuitive touch screen control system to simplify operation. Robot programs, simulation and gripper configurations are efficiently calculated offline by LVD Strippit's CADMAN B – 3D programming software and the Kuka Sim software to ensure consistent production of accurate, high quality parts.

RoboCell can function as a fully automated system or the press brake can be operated manually via the CADMAN® Touch control. The system features a full 2.0 m of space between the robot and the press brake, and the press brake is maintained at its normal working height, facilitating standalone operation.
