Clear Automation adds robots to PennEngineering presses
Clear Automation supplies robots to PennEngineering for its PEMSERTER Series 3000 Press fastener installation press. This allows completely hands-off installation of self-clinching.
Clear Automation supplies robots to PennEngineering for its PEMSERTER Series 3000 Press fastener installation press. This allows completely hands-off installation of self-clinching.
The system is offered in two standard packages to accommodate various work piece sizes. The turnkey package integrates an input conveyor with locator, output conveyor, gripper, FANUC robot, and a basic sequence program to interface with the PEMSERTER Series 3000 press. Among available robot options, a robot slide can be supplied to expand work cells for multiple PEMSERTER presses.
The PEMSERTER Series 3000 automatic fastener installation press system reliably performs without hydraulics to install all types of self-clinching fasteners rapidly, accurately, and permanently in thin metal sheets. The press is designed with a 24" / 61cm throat depth, runs at unprecedented cycle rates, can realize a ram force up to 16,000 lbs. / 71.2kN, can be operated remotely through networking, and is CE certified to comply with applicable European standards.
PennEngineering, was founded in 1942 and this year celebrates 70 years of excellence and innovation in fastening technology.
Clear Automation specializes in the custom design, engineering, fabrication and installation of integrated robotic and machine vision systems. The company manufactures a variety of automated assembly and packaging machinery for multiple industries including personal care products, medical devices, automotive, electronics and machine components.
Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
