AI Technical Summary
Existing injection molding machine material handling devices are insufficient in terms of motion capability, making it difficult to adapt to injection molds with different angles and positions, resulting in poor equipment versatility. Furthermore, traditional gripper assemblies are prone to sticking or jamming when handling complex injection molded parts, affecting production efficiency and product quality.
A multi-directional material handling device for injection molding machines was designed, comprising a rotary drive mechanism, a lifting adjustment mechanism, and a lateral movement mechanism. Combined with a rotatable gripper assembly, it enables omnidirectional movement in three-dimensional space, adapting to injection molds at different positions and angles. The rotating gripper adjusts the posture to avoid the problem of sticking to the mold wall.
It significantly improves the versatility and adaptability of the material handling device, reduces manual intervention and defect rate, increases production efficiency and reduces labor costs, and ensures the continuity of the material handling, transfer and placement process.
