Process
Schematics for Sample Quick Die Change Applications |
|

|
|
| |
| Listed below are
the process schematics for a sampling of quick die change
transport solutions. |
|
1 Single-stage die cart on rails,
1 PPS,
2 tables.

cart on rails with PPS
|
- The old die is pushed out of the
press and onto the die handling cart. The cart brings
it to the depositing table on the right.
- The cart now moves to the table
on the left, picks up the new tool and brings it
to the press, where the die loader pulls it into
its operating position.
|
|
|
1 PPS,
1 double-stage die cart on rails.

Double-stage die
cart on rails with PPS
|
- The old die is pushed out of the
press and onto the die cart's empty stage (in this
example, the one on the right). The cart brings
it to the depositing table on the right.
- The cart now moves to the right,
to position its other stage, holding the new die,
in front of the press. The loader pulls the die
into its operating position. the cart may now bring
the old die to the storage.
|
|
|
1 PPS,
2 single-stage die carts on rails.

Two single-stage
die carts on rails
|
- The cart on the left brings the
new die. It moves on rails approaching the press
from the side. The other cart, equipped with a push-pull
unit, gets the old die out of the press. It then
moves backwards on its rails, which run straight
to the press.
- The cart with the new die now moves
in front of the press, so that it stands exactly
between the press and the cart holding the old die.
- The push-pull unit on the second
cart pushes the new tool into the press.
- The cart that first brought the
nex die now brings the old die back to the storage

Domino Die Change
System
|
- A Domino Die Change System serves
serveral presses in a line, changing dies in each
of them simultaneously.First, the die carts move
in fornt of their respective presses, each one carrying
the appropriate new die. In addition, one empty
cart moves to the rear of the last press.
- Carts and press bolsters are perfectly
in line. New dies are now pusched into their presses,
and, in turn, push old dies onto the carts on the
rear of these presses. This is the Domino move.
- The carts move back again and bring
the old dies to the storage
