6-Axis Robots

KUKA KR 70 R2100 / 6-axis Robot For Guiding The Mixing Head or The Component

The DM 50x mixing and dispensing machine can also be operated with the use of 6-axis robots for parts handling and mixing head guidance. Here we cooperate with renowned manufacturers such as ABB and Kuka and can provide successful references for automation with 6-axis robots.

Elegant solutions can thus be implemented with 6-axis robots, particularly for geometrically demanding components with difficult-to-access contours or multiple applications on different sides of a part.

By intelligently linking automated movements before, during and after the application process, customized system layouts can be designed, both as stand-alone production units or fully automated and integrated inline production. For example, the fully automated SONDERHOFF MOLD'N SEAL inline production process, the dosing machine and 6-axis robot for parts handling are combined with an injection molding system.

Many aspects play a role here: size, weight, geometry of the component, number of applications per part, speed at which the contour is to be traversed, dimension of the contour itself, but above all the requirements for integration into the customer-specific production steps before and after!

Either the 6-axis robot grips the component and moves it with contour accuracy under a stationary mixing head, fixed at the 2-axis traversing unit MKVE. Alternatively, the mixing head is attached to the arm of the 6-axis robot and moves precisely along the component contour. With this configuration also "overhead" applications are possible for complex 3D geometries - provided the appropriate material is selected.
