Operating principle of the machine:
The turning device consists of two opposing tables, each with a support surface of 1400 x 900 mm. On the side of the table that is facing downwards during the swivel movement, the load-bearing steel profiles are angled upwards by 90° to ensure that the plate to be turned is held securely in a vertical position during the 90° swivel.
Both tables are arranged opposite each other and are swivelled by 100° by means of hydraulic cylinders.
The tables are mounted on a load-bearing substructure, on which one table is fixed and the other can be moved relative to it. The movement is carried out by hydraulic cylinders, which can move the table, which is mounted on rollers, by approx. 300 mm. The substructure also supports the hydraulic and electrical components.
A hydraulic unit serves as the drive source, which supplies the cylinders with oil in accordance with the control commands. The corresponding valves are electrically and/or hydraulically controlled and initiate and maintain the movements of the tables in their interaction with each other, required for the function, until the turning process is completed.
Particular attention is paid to the movement safety and the sensitive adjustment of the table movement between pressure and tension when designing the hydraulic system. The geometry of the pivot axes of the tables results in a change in the load effect on the tilting cylinders. The hydraulics are designed in such a way that the required performance is ensured and an overload of the components is not possible during normal operation. Corresponding filters, combined with a generously sized tank volume, ensure a high availability of the hydraulic system.
The necessary electrical control is completely housed in a steel sheet metal enclosure, which contains all the required components. The core of the control is a PLC, in which the operating parameters are processed in accordance with the program specification. In addition, the emergency stop function and all the relays and evaluation units required to control the functions are installed. The turning device is operated via a control panel with a touch screen for entering the function parameters, such as swivel table 1 up, swivel table 1 down, table 1 forward, table 1 backward, swivel table 2 up, swivel table 2 down, and start or stop the automatic mode.
