Ready to use and easy to operate, the servo press workstation Smart Single Station (SST) 2nd Generation provides smooth workflows in the production line.
This assembly press workstation was built by Kistler as a manual workstation for pressing rotor stacks with a high joining force onto the shaft of an electric motor.
The turn-key assembly workstation Smart Single Station (SST) is equipped with the maXYmos NC process monitoring system. The integrated force-displacement monitoring function enables 100% quality inspection of joining and pressing processes.
With the new assembly workstation for pressing and joining Smart Single Station (SST) 2nd Generation, Kistler presents a fully optimized version of the servo press workstation for automated assembly and testing processes. The system can either be used as a manual workstation or fully integrated into the production line. The new version is easier to operate, allowing inexperienced employees to perform various assembly and testing processes correctly. Further improvements including easier data export, and the newly designed front door offers smooth workflows on today's busy shop floors.
The integrated maXYmos NC process monitoring system for force-displacement monitoring enables quality inspection of joining and pressing processes, ensuring their traceability. Kistler has further optimized the SST to better adapt to the various conditions in the often tightly scheduled manufacturing routine.
The SST 2nd Generation can be set up by parameterization; programming knowledge is not necessary. Its operation is now controlled centrally via an integrated screen. Illustrated instructions guide users through the testing or assembly processes, allowing even inexperienced operators to quickly and accurately start using the machine. They can select programs either by scanner or manually. The collected measurements are displayed in real time. A new and particularly powerful feature of the maXYmos NC process monitoring system enables the operator to filter measurement data and then export the selection. This facilitates the subsequent evaluation of the production and analysis data.
To make the Smart Single Station even more user-friendly during everyday tasks, Kistler has revised the mechanics of the second generation. This includes a completely redesigned front door and service door. The front door can now be stopped in any position to improve workflows-making it no longer necessary to fully open it during each cycle. This makes work more ergonomic and saves valuable time. The service door now opens up to 180°, providing easier access to the toolholder. Additionally, the upper frame can be completely removed for maintenance on the NC joining module or sensor calibration.
Kistler designs its SST assembly workstations to meet individual customer needs and the requirements of the respective joining, assembly and testing tasks. The manual servo press workstations are equipped with Kistler's electromechanical NC joining modules and are designed for various joining processes, including pressing, clinching, caulking, riveting and punching, as well as for thermo-bonding and testing springs. Due to their energy efficiency, electromechanical joining systems improve the CO2 balance and make a valuable contribution to climate protection.
In addition to joining and pressing processes, other industry-specific manufacturing processes can be implemented with the SST. The SST can, for instance, be equipped with high-resolution cameras for special optical inspections to realize 100% quality assurance.
