Stacker for sheet metal coilsThe project contains 7474 parts.[Please, if you like or download my model, hit the 👍 button and maybe you can buy me a book (because i don't like Coffee :)) to support my work :-) 👇]https://www.buymeacoffee.com/matdesign3dcadCoil stackerLength: 6500mm, width: 5000mm, machine height 2650mm -- Frame drives: realized through toothed belts, transmission of drive by coupling 2 gears with a chain.-Used drives: 120 hz motors with encoders to peak the correct position of the device.-Vacuum: used 4kW pump with very high power of 500mbar.- 10 suction mats each with a lifting capacity of up to 40 kg.-Maximum carried weight 380Kg.Although most sheet metal coil stackers operate on the principle of magnetic grippers.here I struggled with the problem of improving the production process because the company produced elements from magnetic steel and non-magnetic steel.The project was carried out for a company in Poland. Although the concept of the project took about 4 months, in the end the project was created with many changed assemblies and parts.One vacuum pump was not enough for such heavy elements, it was necessary to use 1 pump for 5 suction mats.The rotation of the suction mats after fastening the sheet metal disc with tape has been added.1 beam from the structural frame has been cut to a minimum.The vacuum components used were from schmalz, due to the emerging air resistance, I resigned from the air filter at the pump outlet.Unfortunately I can't share the whole concept in solidworks.Design made in Solidworks 2021, renders: Solidworks 2021.
