PM Manipulators are industrial pneumatic manipulator systems developed for ergonomic handling, positioning, rotation and controlled transfer of parts to assembly points in production lines.
In assembly operations, precision positioning, operator ergonomics, part safety, production line pace and repeatable positioning must all be evaluated together.
Ergonomics in Assembly Lines
Repeated part lifting and positioning operations can create physical fatigue for operators. PM Manipulators allow parts to be handled with less effort and better control.
Precision Positioning
Correct positioning of parts in assembly lines is critical for production quality. PM Manipulators support precision positioning with operator controlled movement.
Controlled Rotation and Positioning
Some assembly operations may require parts to be rotated by 90 degrees or 180 degrees. PM Manipulators can be developed with controlled rotation systems for these applications.
Application Areas
PM Manipulators can be adapted to assembly line operations such as:
• part handling
• assembly line feeding
• precision positioning
• controlled rotation
• product positioning
• sub assembly operations
• heavy part placement
• operator assisted assembly
