In the case of concatenated cells, the workpieces are transferred from one operation to the next in container stacks, either manually or automatically, by way of an unmanned transfer system. The main idea of concatenated cells is to establish individual machining cells, as a means to uncouple the process sequences and thus to increase the flexibility, availability and output of finished workpieces significantly. In this context, the Cellmaster restacking cell is an ideal basis for consistent and independent factory automation, offering ultimate flexibility and availability. In addition to the classic interfacing to a gantry robot, it is also suited for robot integration or use as a decoupling module with modular storage expansion for concatenated sections.
 | Cellmaster CM. Promot Cellmaster is a workpiece magazine which works with stacks from containers. The stacks are loaded/unloaded manually and moved from one manufacturing process to the next. Suitable containers in which to deposit the workpieces are skeleton cages, plastic boxes or metal pallets. Cellmaster supplies the individual containers to a gantry robot or buckling-arm robot such that the unmachined parts can be removed and the finished parts returned. Philosophy. The main idea behind the use of Cellmaster is to establish individual machining cells, as a means to uncouple the process sequences and thus to significantly increase the availability and output of finished workpieces. - Uncoupling of the single operations - Individual scheduling of the single operations - Individual optimisation of the single operations - One-time manual loading and unloading of the containers - Manual transport of the stacks from operation to operation - Possibility to form ordered buffers between the operations Function principle. The Cellmaster standard variant possesses three stacking locations.  - Active stack of unmachined parts - Active stack of finished parts - Buffer stack for stack change parallel to the machining time To remove the parts, the topmost cage of the stack of unmachined parts is lifted centrally under the gantry arm or into the gripping range of a buckling-arm robot. Finished parts are placed back into the same cage. Subsequently, the cage is deposited on the finished-parts stack. In addition to the standard variant, there are numerous further Cellmaster variants which can be chosen to suit particular part flows, cycle times, buffer requirements, space requirements, etc. Cellmaster CM-S... Standard Standard variant with 3 stacking locations and 3 protective doors granting access at all times.
Cellmaster CM-FM... Multiple Increased autonomy thanks to max. 6 stacks per Cellmaster.Cellmaster CM-F... Front Loading Loading is performed from the front side through a central protective door.Cellmaster CM-D... Continuous Accumulating cycling of the stacks by way of a bottom roller belt.Cellmaster CM-FTS... for Unmanned Transfer Systems Cellmaster superstructure suitable for automatic docking of unmanned transfer systems. Cellmaster CM-EKM... Uncoupling Module Cellmaster CM-EKM reduces the buffer areas and footprint by way of vertical installation of the magazines. This increases the human-machine uncoupling. Flexible coupling possibilities provide high flexibility for the layout. Download Cellmaster brochure |  | |  |  |  |
