24” thru 96” long fluorescent lamps are conveyed horizontally thru an automatic inspection system. If the part does not pass inspection, a six-axis Motoman robot will off-load the part from the line to a waiting pallet. The line runs 10,000 parts per hour. The system is also designed to off-load production runs that are destined for a separate packaging operation.
Warnecke designed and built the palletizing system utilizing CDLR accumulating conveyors and pop-up chain transfers from Conveyer & Caster. They also designed and built the special pick & place end-effector. System controls, programming, robot integration and turnkey installation (including start-up and training services) were also provided to Phillips Lighting.
Conveyer & Caster is a partner with Warnecke Design on numerous automation systems. The end result is equipment provided to exact specifications with a reduction in engineering and labor overhead. This results in lowered cost and improved turnaround time to the end user.
