Machines/Process
ATM has again set a new working relationship with another General Electric/Haier Thermoforming plant, this one is located in Alabama. ATM has constructed two more 4-station rotary pressure forming machines. Both machines include auto load and auto unload of material and parts. These machines also have an auto tool load / unload system.
In this time of manufacturing it looks like more automation will be required to meet the demands of products being made.
ATM has designed this auto load / unload system to possibly be retrofitted into other existing machines. ATM would like the opportunity to evaluate any machine to verify this system would work on your machine. Or we would like the opportunity to quote a new machine for your application on production that you may have in your facility.
This picture and video shows the load station with 2 loading areas, with this application this machine will keep on running threw out the 1st, 2nd or 3rd shifts that companies are running. These machines are running 3 shifts 5-6 days a week. On the other side of the loading area is the unload station this is where part is set onto a conveyor to remove part out of machine area/ safe zone.
This picture and video shows the auto tool load / unload. There are many other options to apply this system in machines. ATM has built many different tool load systems.
