Handling manipulator for ring rolling mill automatic line developed.
Mitsubishi Nagasaki Machinery, as the forging press and ring rolling mill manufacturer, had developed the world’s first “handling manipulator”.
By the combination of the linkage mechanism and the hydraulic servo, the automatic inserting of the hot material to the ring rolling mill can be made at high speed with high accuracy. This developed machine has the manipulating capacity of maximum weight 500 kg and maximum outer diameter 600 mm.
Also, by the intercommunication via wireless LAN between the ring rolling mill and the handling manipulator, the latest operating specification using a tablet terminal is realized. This makes it possible that the ring rolling mill automatic line can be provided as a package. We are certain that this could be helpful for the user’s productivity improvement.
180 ton steel reception cart for steel manufacturing industry delivered and installed.
Mitsubishi Nagasaki Machinery had delivered and installed a 180 ton steel reception cart for steel manufacturing industry.
This equipment would carry the ladle, receive the molten iron reduced from the electric furnace thereafter, make primary refining by LF facility, and make the transportation up to the front of the RH degassing apparatus.
Completed delivery of our next generation manipulator.
This Mitsubishi Nagasaki Machinery’s next generation 50tm manipulator greatly improves productivity and is capable of handling products large and small, making excellent use of its detachable “long arm”.
Compared to our conventional type, acceleration has increased by 35% and rotational torque has been improved by 25%. In addition to this, the stopping precision has also increased.
This results in shorter forging time and reduction of number of heats. In other words, better efficiency and reduced process time. The weight reduction of the manipulator and the smaller motor leads to a power usage reduction of approximately 23%.
