Semi Automatic Transfer System links production processes.
November 17, 2008 -
Capable of linking production processes that require one or 2 linear movements, TransferModule 1500 suits application in multi-layer rotary stripping, crimping of various terminals, connector housing assembly, and sensor cable assembly. Individual processes, such as stripping or crimping, are carried out using standard machines that are integrated into linear transfer system, where as technically difficult processes, such as insertion of component, are carried out manually by operator.

The new TransferModule 1500 from Schleuniger is a flexible, semi-automatic platform for linking production processes that require one or two linear movements. Complex processing steps can be automated where precise repetition is critical - improving quality and reducing labor at a fraction of the cost of a fully automatic system.
Schleuniger's TM1500 offers a cost-effective way to get into automation. Individual processes, such as stripping or crimping, are carried out using standard machines that are integrated into a linear transfer system. Processes that are technically difficult to automate, such as insertion of a component, are carried out manually by the operator. This keeps the overall system cost down, helping to achieve a better ROI. For additional quality assurance, component positioning can be monitored automatically by an appropriate sensor system. Through a combination of manual processes and precise automated processing steps, a wide range of applications can be carried out in a cost-effective manner.
The TransferModule 1500 is a comparatively small investment, offering flexibility and the ability to adapt to changing production demands. As a semi-automatic solution requiring an operator, shorter cycle times and reduced component handling times allow the operator to work more efficiently. This completes a repeatable link of several independent operations.
Wide ranges of application possibilities include multi-layer rotary stripping, crimping of various terminals, connector housing assembly, sensor cable assembly, wire tinning or compaction and much more.
Customer-specific processes are simple to integrate when using an open architecture that is PLC driven and operated with a PC.
Schleuniger offers an innovative solution between individual benchtop machines and fully automated systems. With ultimate flexibility, the TransferModule 1500 can provide a favorable return on investment, even for smaller production volumes.
