GOALS
THE PROCESS
Step by step, this diagram will illustrate how the cell will accomplish it's goal of assembling and prepapring the finished pump, with accesories, for packaging.  The entire process will require ten tasks to complete a finished product.  These tasks consist of:
FIXTURES AND MAGAZINES
MACHINES AND TOOLS
The Golden Sisters
(raw material and cylinder)
Motoman UP-6 (robot)
Hitachi A3020 (robot)
START
Garmisch  (tool kit)
Pinacho Munstang 200 (CNC lathe)
Papa Toaster  (package plate)
PLC
Slide
Rocco/Shaggy
(drill and vaccume)
Totem (main fixture)
Toaster Jr. (piston)
Titanic (gasket)
Snail (screw)
1. The Motoman gets the white or black raw material from "The Golden Sisters" (raw material magazine), depending on the choice made at the control board, and places it in the jaws of the lathe for machining. 2.  Using the vaccume attachment we call "Shaggy", the Hitachi retreaves the "Rocco" pump packaging from "Papa Toaster" (packaging plate magazine), and placing it in the packer slide.  It then places the optional repair kit, from "Garmisch" (tool kit magazine), in the packaging if that option is chosen.

5. The Motoman retreavs the partly machined handle from the lathe jaws, filipping it 180 degrees, and places it back into the jaws for the final machining process.
6. Using the "Rocco Penetrator", the Hitachi drills and taps the stop screw hole in the cylinder.
