Robots Load, Unload Machines Without Need for Barriers Booth 803 FANUC America Corp. will demonstrate machine load/unload with its CR-7iA table-top size collaborative robot equipped with iRVision. During the demonstration, the robot will pick up a part and load it into a lathe's chuck, then remove the part from the chuck and place it back onto a part tray, showing how a collaborative robot can be used for machine tool loading and unloading. The cell will have area scanners running at full speed when the operator is outside of the cell. The CR-7iA, CR-7iA/L, CR-4iA and larger CR-35iA collaborative robots are equipped with highly sensitive contact detection, enabling them to share work- stations with people and perform more strenuous tasks or repetitive operations without industrial safety barriers, the company says. The CR-7iA offers a 717-mm reach and 7-kg payload; the CR-7iA/L offers the same payload with a 911=mm reach; and the CR-4iA has a 550-mm reach and 4-kg payload. The design for the compact collaborative robots is based on the LR Mate-series of mini material- handling robots, and they are said to be ideal for small part sorting and assembly, inspection, machine tending, and part delivery. :: FANUC America Corp. 888-326-8287, fanucamerica.com Machines Reduce Setup Times by 70 Percent Booth 2303 Haimer will feature its Microset tool presetting machines, which are said to streamline tool setting processes to reduce set up times by as much as 70 percent, minimizing idle time and increasing machine utilization. The company says key features of the presetting ma- chines are its ease of use, simple software and stable, cast-iron base. Haimer offers a range of Microset products for different appli- cations and budgets, including the Uno series and the Vio series. Other technologies and products featured will include power clamp shrink-fit machines, shrink-fit toolholders and collet chucks, tool dynamic balancing machines, Safe-Lock and Duo-Lock tech- nologies, 3D sensors, and the Cool Flash coolant delivery system. :: Haimer USA 630-833-1500, haimer-usa.com drilling, milling, threading & deburring tough materials SMALL DIMENSIONS FOR – Stainless steel – Titanium – Superalloys – CrCo alloys HIGH PERFORMANCE IN – Machining time – Tool life – Process reliability – Accuracy Mikron Corp.
