11.        Ball Valve Loading

11.1.               Vibrator bowl with buffer will be used for ball valve loading.  

11.2.               At least 500 pieces of ball valve can be loaded at one time.

11.3.                Vibrator bowl will vibrate out ball valve one by one to linear  track.

11.4.            Two  vibrators bowls is used at this station. The additional bowl is as below  illustrations including bowl, track and vibrator which whole set can be easily  change by removing 4 screws from the base.

The  machine will consist of:  

1 bowl  for adjusting screws

1 bowl r  for the O-rings

1 bowl  for the springs

2  interchangeable bowls set for the ball valves

It  include the bowl, track and vibrator

Which  whole set can be easily change by removing 4 screws from the base.  

11.5.                Pickup  head will pick-up ball valve and place on top of spring.

11.6.                Special tool head will be used to press ball valve.

12.        CCD  Checking

12.1.               Cognex vision camera is used to check the ball valve.

12.2.                The  vision camera is installed horizontal to perform checking from sideway of the  part.

12.3.             These  camera also double checks that we choose the correct ball size

13.        Spare Station

13.1.        Spare station is assign for  future usage.

14.        Good & Bad Part Unloading

14.1.        Complete part will be  unloaded by a Pick & Place Arm into an aluminum tray.
