Machine Demonstration:
Belmont developed part management system with RFID that eliminates the need for the operator to select the part program for the work piece. This application is customizable based on customer specifications. One robot is shared by two machines but this can be one to one. The front of the robot houses the sinker work pieces and electrodes, while the back contains the work pieces for the Small Hole EDM Drill. The operator loads several workpieces in the robot. Cycle start is activated on the machine and the Erowa robot loads the first workpiece in the Erowa chuck on the machine table. An RFID tag attached to the fixture is scanned and the corresponding program begins to run. The part is completed and placed back in the robot where the process repeats with the next work piece.
