Manufacturer: Fukudaco

Overview

Significantly extended lifespan and wear resistance. Reduced air consumption and noise levels.
Founded in 1982 as a hydraulic robot manufacturer, the company leveraged its experience and technology to shift its focus to automation in 1992. Today, it is the world’s leading manufacturer of press transfer units for automotive doors and bodies, with a strong track record of adoption by various automobile manufacturers.

Applications

Automotive door panels, body press transfer, and sheet metal transfer

Features

CFRP Crossbar Beam

• Utilizes CFRP with damping materials incorporated into the components, enabling high-speed automatic transfer.

Vacuum Pad

• Made of thermoplastic elastomer, providing long lifespan and high wear resistance.
• Quick responsiveness to the suctioned workpiece.
• Silicone-free, environmentally friendly, and recyclable.

Ejector

• Significantly reduces air consumption.
• Improves the speed of vacuum on/off switching.
• No need for a silencer, making it very quiet.

Components for Automatic Transfer Systems

Vacuum Pads, Ejectors

The latest servo press machines and automation technologies have improved production processes in press shops. Faster operation speeds require vacuum pads that not only offer high holding power and durability but also maintain quick responsiveness to the workpiece.

Benefits of Vacuum Pads

• Free deformation and very high suction power
• Excellent adaptability to component shapes
• Does not damage the workpiece surface due to integrated molding
• Retains the workpiece even during emergency stops
• High wear resistance and durability
• Suitable for use on aluminum, steel, and plastic surfaces
• Recyclable
