FEATURES:

The equipment works as one complete unit, which uses six separate workstations (positions) to progressively assemble the final product, the cooler for the EGR valve.
It consists of a total of 6 + 29 components:
1 × Outer casing; 1 × Bottom flange; 1 × Upper flange; 1 × Bypass tube; 2 × Cap (further divided into an upper cap and lower cap) and 29 × Tubes

Description of parts on the turntable at Position 1


DESCRIPTION OF THE WORKSTATIONS:

The operator in Position 1 installs all parts except the tubes. The tubes are automatically loaded from exchangeable containers (changed by the operator) by the manipulator in Position 2. The finished and pasted piece is returned to the Station 1, where the operator takes it and puts/packs it in boxes at this position. The machine always processes one product, while the operator can take/add parts to produce another product.
