Sliding table machines
Plastic welding machines with user-friendly operating area
If there are one or more working areas and the loading area is to remain free, the use of sliding table machines is advantageous. Sliding table machines offer maximum safety and ergonomics in the loading area, as this is freely accessible. To machine the workpiece, it is pushed automatically to the rear into the working area or into successive working areas. This makes sliding table machines particularly suitable for workpieces that require somewhat higher cycle times during ultrasonic machining.
Depending on the number of machining stations in the machine, the sliding table concept can be implemented with a crank drive or an NC axis. In addition, other standardized designs such as bridges or a C-frame can be combined in the machine.
Advantages
- Ergonomics and maximum safety in the loading area (when a C-frame is integrated, accessibility from the front and side is possible)
- Equipment of the lines with quick tool changing system possible
Applications
- Door panel: base support, map pocket, sill, armrest, Z-adjustment, center panel, cover of woofers
