Commutator Placing Machine

CPMH-8000

STANDARD FEATURES

  • Centralized push button operator control panel.

  • Allen-Bradley Data Table Access Module for machine parameter data entry with 2-line, 16 character display including fault coded diagnostics and parts counter.

  • Allen-Bradley SLC-500 Programmable Controller.

  • Metric construction.

  • 12mm plug-in proximity switches.

  • Modular guarding with all electrical interlocks and extruded aluminum frame with polycarbonate inserts.

  • Rigid inline horizontal press assembly.

  • Hydraulics used for commutator press.

  • Modular construction to provide fast tooling changeover.

  • Flip open commutator supply chute for easy access and clean out.

  • Commutator is released to radial locating nest before placement into commutator holder/placing tooling.

  • Six (6) position commutator radial location turreted stop mechanism.

  • Machine stops automatically after two (2) attempts to load the same commutator onto the commutator holder and after consecutive attempts of three (3) different commutators (default setting).  Other settings can be programmed.

 

 

 

MODELS
