Abstract
A component support and mechanization machine, which is comprised of a set of units U.1 to U.n, each of which comprises a collection of arcs that form continuous arc-shaped trajectories along which may be moved a series of telescoping columns, equipped with workheads with double hinge joints and capacitative sensors. The arcs of each unit are mounted on rails and the different units U.1 to U.n are placed on main rails.
Claims6
A Component support and mechanization machine, characterized by the fact that it comprises a set of units, each of which comprises a collection of arcs;
- each arc forms a continuous curved trajectory that supports a series of telescoping columns equipped with means to move along said arc;
- each of these telescoping columns has on its tree end a workhead, made up of a double hinge joint and a flexible cup, in the center of which is a capacitative sensor which serves to verify the quality and precision of a component to be supported by the machine;
- meanwhile, the arcs of each unit are mounted on first rails and may be moved along said first rails, and the different units are placed on as many main rails.
