一个两轴龙门式机器人是典型的高capacity/speed of the picking and placing system.
The 2 axis moves along 2 different axis: the X-axis (lengthwise movement) and the Z-axis (up and down movement).
Our design uses two horizontal linear guides in the x-axis supported on a robust steel frame, where the gantry carriage moves smoothly in between on the linear guides.
The vertical stroke for the gripper is done by the gantry carriage and the vertical “slider” is also using guides.
Because of the double beams in the X-axis, the gripper working payloads are resolved as forces on the X axes.
This significantly increases the system’s stiffness and allows long stroke lengths and high speeds.

A three axis gantry robot is typically used where there is a variation in the product type handled by size, type, color etc. and a larger number of loading stations are required.
The three axis moves along 3 different axis: the X-axis (lengthwise movement), the Y-axis (across movement) and the Z-axis (up and down movement).
The robot has a pickup position and several loading positions.

The “slider” moves across the gantry carriage also in guides.

A 2-axis design with double heads consists of two gantry robots that share a common frame on the “X” axis.
The two robots are in constant communication with each other to prevent collision.
The robot has two pickup positions and a number of loading positions.
With two gantry carriages, a very large loading area can be covered. If one of the heads is parked for service, the other head can use both pickup positions as well as all loading positions.
The double head configuration will double the capacity of the gantry robot.
CH System has just designed, and factory tested a complete new automatic sleeve handling and storage system.
As the variation is quite large in the flexible packaging and lidding materials for food, pharmaceutical and tobacco applications, many different sleeves are used in the production.
Today are sleeves often manual handled, stored across the production facilities with no real marking and logistic registering.
The manual handling of sleeves in the past caused several repetitive work movements for the operator’s and each sleeve represent a large investment both in cost and manhours, so an automatic storage and handling system was the solution for the future.
The new automatic system can store up to 1500 individual sleeves, each with a unique number and floating storage location.
The sleeves are stored vertically and vary in length, diameter and weight. The heart of the new system is a 3-axis gantry robot located above the physical sleeve storage area of more than 100 m2.
Utmost care is the key word for ensuring safe storage of the sleeves, which goes hand in hand with our gantry robot design with precision, repeatability and smooth handling.
机器人抓手是专门设计的for the application both lifting on the upper part of the sleeve and supporting at the bottom of the sleeve.
Beside the gantry robot the project also included trolleys and a “washing machine” for the sleeves. The complete project with mechanical & electrical engineering and software programming is handled in-house at CH System. The whole system is factory tested in our workshop before site installation and handover.
