Mudguard Loading Cell Robots

This mudguard load cell robot has been designed to automate loading and unloading of truck mudguards in hand-built welding presses. Automatic loading and unloading part stores allow for complete autonomy without stops.

Poly-articulated robots handle flat flexible polypropylene parts and manipulate them from peer to peer into the secure enclosure.

Three plates are referenced then welded together sequentially by two thermo-welding presses. The parts are cut to length before being stacked on a pallet for evacuation.
