Forge press

You can forget the assumption that using dedicated automatic machines is the best way of loading and unloading workpieces in forging stages. Robots can handle a wide range of workpieces. The forging of small quantities of workpieces in a wide variety of types is possible without reducing the high processing speed of the line and so modern-day requirements for handling diversified products can be meet.

 

Inter-press conveyance

This is a manufacturing process for pressed parts used in automobiles. The line consists of seven press machines along with 10 Kawasaki robots that transfer workpieces between press machines. Five FS30 units mounted to the ceiling together with five FS30 units located on the floor are employed for transferring workpieces.
