Automation with roboLoad
For the radius internal cylindrical grinding machines, STUDER has developed a specifi c loader solution for this market segment based on a robot cell. The loader system is suitable for chuck components up to a part length of 100 mm (3.93") and a part diameter of max. 260 mm (10.24"), and thus covers a large portion of the component ranges produced on these machines. The parts are supplied via a standardized, adjustable grid rack system.
The housing for the base module, which is provided with a loading hatch as standard, has been adapted to suit the machine design and enables safe and clean operation of the system.
