yaskawa Robot Waterjet Cutting System, used for cutting automotive carpet and headliner

Waterjet Cutting Cell | Technology by Shape Process Automation

Depending on your production demands, each of these waterjet cutting system can be supplied with single, dual, triple or quad robot configurations, and if your demands are greater overhead gantries can be configured with up to six robots, paired with a complete UHP plumbing package – from pump to nozzle – sized to meet your production’s waterjet cutting requirements.

Select from a wide range of waterjet cutting cell configurations, such as A-Frame (wall mount), overhead gantry, rotating wall or simple floor mount cells.

The Design and Core Configuration

This is the design of a set of three robot arms with ceiling structure. The ceiling structure robot integration is mostly used in mass-produced automotive interior production lines, and is generally located behind the thermal press.
Ceiling-type robot waterjet cutting has a fixed-structure cutting platform. Such a cutting platform is generally suitable for cutting large automotive interior parts such as headliners.
It can be cut one at a time, but the design of three robot arms makes simultaneous cutting very efficient. The front and rear doors of the robotic shape process automation are the locations for loading and unloading materials.
Two operators, one operator is responsible for taking the material off the cutting table and removing excess material after cutting.

Another operator removes the material from the heat press at the rear door and places it on the robotic waterjet workstation.
This is a link that exists in the middle of the entire production line. But the robot waterjet cutting process basically ranks behind.
After the automotive interior parts undergo the shape process automation, they only require an inspection by the operator. Then hang it up and wait for a few hours before  can use it normally.

Core Configuration of Waterjet Cutting cell

1: Ceiling Enclosed Working Station
2: YASKAWA GP20 robot arm
3: Equipped with SL-VI 100HP large-flow rate intensifier pump
4: High-performance industrial chiller, the whole set of equipment can works well in hot areas
5: The powerful vacuum adsorption system keeps the cutting parts firmly fixed on the cutting table
6: Water purification system, which can prolong the service life of orifice
7: Safety protection system to detect personnel in the work area and protect personnel safety
8: General control system

STREAMLINE SL-VI 100HP large-flow rate intensifier pump

WINWIN robot waterjet cutting system customize for our customer requirment, which is  carried out under the circumstances of the customer's initial factory construction or capital budget.
The first step is for the customer to choose to purchase a single-arm robot waterjet cutting workstation, but a set of installation interfaces are reserved in the control and other structural design.The customer chose the SL-VI 100HP high-flow intensifier pump. We all know that KMT is a very famous high-pressure pump manufacturer in the world, and WINWIN’s pump quality is comparable to it.Our design idea is that the customer first installs a set of robotic arm waterjet cutting workstations.

If the customer needs greater productivity in the future, we will easily install a robotic workstation, which will double the productivity.Moreover, during the initial installation, various installation needs for adding the robot system in the later period have been reserved. In the end, the two sets of robots can share a high-voltage system.
And the two sets of robots can be operated relatively independently. This solution not only increases productivity, but also allows for multiple cutting table positions in the future.This means that parts for many different car interior models can be cut at the same time, doubling the flexibility.
Not only that, there is a greater guarantee in terms of failure rate. If one robot integration requires maintenance, it will not affect the normal work of another robot workstation, ensuring 24-hour operation.
In this plan, the large-flow intensifier pump we equip our customers is very important. Let’s take a look at the parameters and advantages of this high-pressure system.
