How the system works
The CP Lab 406-1 system represents a networked production system consisting of six pallet transfer systems with different application modules.
Prerequisites for creating the following process sequence after linking and starting a batch size 1 routing:
- The magazine module provides a housing shell.
- The quality data collection is performed using the measuring module's analog distance sensors.
- The drilling module performs an order-based, simulated drilling operation on the front shell.
- As an additional assembly step, the rear shell is placed using the magazine module.
- The press module finalizes the product through the pressing process.
- The output module performs the process end: workpiece output.
