Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical equipment, and in particular to a gripper made of silicon steel sheet with iron core. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing global demand for electricity, transformer manufacturers are facing ever-increasing production capacity requirements. Core stacking is one of the most important and time-consuming processes in transformer manufacturing. Previously, silicon steel sheets in core stacking equipment were typically handled by vacuum or electromagnetic adsorption robotic arms for single-layer transport, which was inefficient and greatly limited core production capacity. Through continuous research and development and iteration by a large number of technical personnel, more efficient stacking equipment has emerged. This type of equipment improves core production efficiency by using a one-time transport method for multi-layer silicon steel sheets. However, it is necessary to solve the problem of how to stably adsorb multi-layer sheets of different sizes and thicknesses. Currently, similar electromagnetic chucks on the market have weak suction force and can only transport single-layer sheets at a time, which cannot effectively improve the production efficiency of core stacking equipment.
