Transportable with a fixed work posture! High-speed batch-type automatic transport device.
FCS-H300
We also manufacture alignment devices for connecting front and rear processes, maximizing the features of FCS! Here is an example of automating a high-speed assembly line for bearings.
【Customer Requests/Challenges】 - An automatic transport system that crosses over the worker passage is needed because the worker passage intersects in the middle of the production line. - We want to stop manual transport using carts and rolling transport through free fall. We want to reduce setup changes. → The cycle time is very fast, making it impossible to achieve with automatic single-piece transport. In a 3D conveyor, issues such as workpieces falling over occur, and managing production is difficult due to a large flow of work-in-progress that exceeds the line of sight. 【Proposal】 We propose a batch transport method where a chuck unit clamps multiple stacked bearing workpieces together. We will create an integrated transport system that includes one FCS unit assembled in a gantry configuration, along with loading equipment on the upstream side and unloading equipment on the downstream side, to be adopted as a high-level bearing high-speed transport device. 【Results After FCS Implementation】 The effort and time required to design and manufacture a complex three-dimensional transport device in-house were eliminated, significantly reducing the implementation costs. Unlike the 3D conveyor, the issue of work-in-progress remaining overhead was resolved, improving production management. Setup changes were also streamlined. *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 a 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 elimination of errors associated with grip changes brings substantial advantages to production efficiency and other aspects. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*

Company information
J.F.C.S. Corporation develops, manufactures, and sells three-dimensional transport devices (FCS) for factories and the logistics industry. Since its founding in 1979, the company has been involved in the development of automation equipment for various factories. In particular, the creative transport system "FCS," developed by our company, has evolved uniquely as a wire transport system using a guide rail unit that allows for easy construction of three-dimensional trajectories, and it has been adopted by various users. "FCS" stands for Flexible Carrier System, and it is utilized in various situations as a flexible transport device that can effectively utilize space to automate the special "flow" of production factories and other settings.
