How the cell works
For billet and profile transfer, the robot or manipulator is sized around the heaviest part plus the gripper, with reach checked against the furnace, press, or saw layout. Heat-rated grippers and shielding are reviewed when parts come directly from a furnace.
Replacing crane-and-hook transfer with a robot cell shortens the transfer path, removes swinging loads above operators, and gives the next station a repeatable placement position every cycle.
