Robot for interlocking pipes

Robot for interlocking pipes
Steinzeug Keramo: Frechen (DE)

Immediately after vertical extrusion, the robot (Fanuc M-2000iA) picks up the interlocking pipes using a vacuum gripper. An automatic procedure adjusts the pipes on both sides. The robot turns the newly pressed pipes 180°C and then places them on a dryer car. A Fanuc robot (M-2000iA/1200kg) is used for the production of interlocking clay pipes. The heaviest pipes of this size (DN 600) have a diameter of 600 mm and weigh around 1 tonne.
