Workpiece transport automation system

Large-capacity and space-saving
ERC80 (EROWA Robot Compact80) (Option)

Many of the machines have a large loading capacity and can transport various types
of workpieces even in a reduced space.

■ Maximum transportation load: 80 kg

■ Maximum magazine positions: 24
(When using the 3-magazine option: 36)

When a large number of workpieces are being processed,

continuous machining is possible by setting as large a
number of workpieces as possible beforehand on the
machining table. However, in this case the NC program that
is created becomes complicated, and the workpiece setup
also requires a long work time.
Automation of workpiece transport enables optimum
workpiece space utilization, a drastic shortening of setup
time on the machine, and improved machine operating
rate.

Technology Embodiment of Sodick's Development Philos

Linear Motor
Linear motor that maintains high speed
and high accuracy semi-permanently
Advanced Smart Linear
In 1998, Sodick launched the first electric discharge machines equipped with linear
motor drives.
The AL series uses a linear motor for the four axes of XYUV, which maintains high-
speed drive and high-precision positioning semi-permanently.
The greatest features of linear motors are high speed and high response.
In the conventional drive system, a ball screw that converts rotational motion
into linear motion was used, but due to mechanical conversion errors, the
followability of high-speed servos deteriorates.
Since the linear motor is driven directly, there is no conversion error, and both
accurate positioning and high-speed operation are achieved.

This eliminates the backlash inherent in conventional ball screw drive systems
and maintains accurate axis movement almost permanently.

The Sodick linear motor drive is a non-contact system that eliminates the need
for ball screws. It is maintenance-free and maintains its initial accuracy almost
indefinitely, with no drop off in machine accuracy due to ball screw wear
throughout the life of the machine (10 years or more).

in Pursuit of Ultimate Accuracy

Machine structure that supports even

higher machining accuracy
■ Optimized rib arrangement reduces weight and improves rigidity
■ Flattening by micron-order scraping is performed on all machines
■ Ceramics are used in the wire running system to maintain lightness,
insulation, and rigidity

Repeated simulations using CAE analysis were carried out during the design of the
AL Series to achieve high rigidity by optimizing the loads during operation.
The TH COM thermal displacement correction function that can handle everything
from high-accuracy to rough temperature environments is installed as standard to
achieve high precision and high efficiency while maintaining stable productivity
throughout long-time machining.
Furthermore, it allows temperature control using graphic displays of the
environmental temperature and allows the machine environment to be checked
from the annual temperature history.

Newly designed service tank

The newly designed service tank provides a more stable machining environment
and improves ease-of-maintenance.
The new service tank has a three-tank structure that completely separates fresh
water and the machining fluid after use. It prevents sludge contamination during
machining and provides a more ideal machining environment.
The large maintenance window makes it easy to clean the tank where chips tend
to collect.

In addition, the number of filters has been increased to four to significantly

improve the filtration capacity. A digital sensor has been newly installed to
constantly monitor the filter pressure data and display an alert when filter
replacement is necessary. This allows the operator to machine with
confidence and to estimate when filter replacement is due by checking the
filter pressure trends on a graph.
