Description
The characteristics (forces, table dimensions, etc.) of the cold stamping lines are variable depending on the type of parts to be manufactured. The following equipment can be supplied for each zone of the line:
- Loading zone or front of line (FOL): blank loading trolleys with magnets and last blank detectors, robots with automatic gripper change or feeders for blank destacking, double sheet detectors in grippers, blank washer/oiler, etc.
- Interpress area: automation by robot, feeders, etc.
- Presses: moving bolsters, cutting dampers, automatic die clamping, hoppers and hatches for scrap evacuation, etc.
- End-of-line area (EOL): robots or feeders, outfeed conveyor, parts autoracking, CCTV, etc.
The options to be incorporated are defined according to the lay out and the required cycle time.
This cold stamping technology makes it possible to manufacture from small reinforcement parts to large body parts, such as doors, sides or hoods. Loire Gestamp's cold stamping presses can operate in force ranges exceeding 2000 tons, allowing the stamping of high-strength parts.
Advantages
High efficiency
These lines are highly efficient in terms of production. They allow multiple stamping operations to be performed in a continuous configuration, with less need for manual intervention, faster part processing and higher overall production line performance.
Investment cost reduction
Investment costs are lower than mechanical production lines.
Flexibility
These lines are highly flexible in terms of production, allowing production changes in a short time from the end of manufacturing a reference to the beginning of a new one.
Higher production speed
High production speed thanks to its continuous and automated configuration. This results in higher performance and greater ability to meet market demand.
