Crossing the aisle and connecting overhead! An automatic transport device that can also realize a gantry-type transport track.
FCS-H300
We will introduce a case where the transportation connecting the bearing grinding process and assembly process was automated using FCS, which allows for easy construction of 3D trajectories.
【Customer Requests / Issues】 - Workers were transporting workpieces between the grinding process and the assembly process using carts. - An automatic transport device that connects over the passageway is needed to secure a path for workers and carts to cross. - There are concerns that combining several linear transport devices will result in a complicated system. - With a 3D conveyor, work-in-progress items accumulate in the passageway, leading to frequent tasks requiring workers to use ladders. → The introduction of a simple gantry-type FCS enabled high-speed automatic transport of individual items. 【Results After FCS Implementation】 Thanks to the simple transport method of the FCS-H300, a smart transport system without waste was established, resulting in the elimination of bottlenecks and preventing interruptions in the production line flow. Changeovers were minimized, significantly improving productivity. Work-in-progress items were greatly reduced, and production management became stricter. *For more details about FCS, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

basic information
The FCS Flexible Carrier System performs linear transport, planar transport (2D transport), and three-dimensional transport in three-dimensional space using a single drive unit. It travels along a track connected by guide rails in horizontal, vertical, and curved configurations via wires, and the carts (carriers) equipped with chucks can be fitted with mechanisms for changing the posture of workpieces, pickup mechanisms, and more as needed. Since there is no need to change the grip on workpieces during transport, the need for numerous workpiece attachment and detachment mechanisms and transfer devices required by conventional transport systems is eliminated, resulting in significant cost reductions. Additionally, the absence of errors associated with grip changes brings substantial advantages to production efficiency and other factors. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*
