Efficient use of space
SHL builds upwards in the production line
Six polishing, grinding or deburring tools on two square meters: The SHL tower makes efficient use of limited space in the production line and also reduces the distances for the robot.
Space is also at a premium in production lines, which is why SHL builds upwards in a small space: the SHL Tower can accommodate up to six polishing, grinding or deburring tools on a footprint of less than two square meters. They can be flexibly arranged on the steel construction mounted on a fixed base. This allows the robot to use them in the production line in a space and distance-saving manner.
The SHL Tower gives the user full control over the tools used. Each drive unit can be controlled independently and the spindle speeds are infinitely variable. As an option, the machining tower has a vertical axis that can be swiveled through 360 degrees. The spindles are 450 millimetres apart and, depending on the configuration, allow the use of polishing wheels up to 500 millimetres in size.
A Profinet island ensures real-time data transmission to and from the tools. This allows the user to maintain an overview of the operating status at all times. The SHL tower also has two large collection hoppers with a central connection. These collect ground material parts and send them for reprocessing or disposal.
The SHL tower can also be equipped with additional accessories. The catalog includes a gripper cleaning station as well as dosing guns for liquid paste. as
