Application of LTC-0200D Quick Tool Changer to Fender Thermoforming Stamping and Unloading

Hot stamping technology is a common part processing method, especially in the automotive industry. Using hot stamping technology to obtain high-strength stamping parts to replace traditional thick steel plates can not only effectively reduce the weight of the parts themselves, but also greatly improve the tensile strength. It is widely used in the manufacture of automobile bumpers, AB pillars, roof side beams and fenders.

Process principle of hot stamping: Hot stamping is often referred to as “stamp hardening” technology. First, the high-strength plate with an initial strength of 500-600MPa is heated to 880-950°C, and then sent to a mold with a cooling system inside for stamping and forming, and is in a pressure-holding state, with a rapid cooling rate of 20-300°C/s Quenching and cooling, due to the transformation of austenite into martensite, the strength of the parts is greatly improved, and stamping parts with a strength of up to 1500MPa can be produced.

Case Background

A lightweight technology company in Wuxi, mainly engaged in auto parts, aviation parts, mold manufacturing, processing and sales. When the fender is produced, the temperature of the furnace is nearly 1000 degrees, and it is about 600-800 degrees when the fixture is clamped. A domestic brand of quick tool changer discs was used, and there were air leaks and tool discs falling off during the application process, which seriously affected production efficiency and safety. So I consulted Linghang Robot Co., Ltd., and Linghang gave an effective solution.

Solution

In view of the situation that the company’s machine leaks air, the tool plate falls off, and the production environment temperature is too high during the robot application process, Linghang recommends it to use the LTC-0200D quick tool changer: the gas pressure is lost and self-locking, even if the main plate is accidentally cut off, the main plate It will not be separated from the tool tray. Solve the company’s problems in a timely and effective manner, improve production efficiency and ensure production safety. And LTC-0200D is more stable and lighter.
