Joinery 4.0
Networked manufacturing
What may still sound like dreams of the future for some carpenters has long been reality at Hans Hundegger AG, and the topic of "industrial joinery" is a powerful signal for innovation and future business planning.
In order to meet the constantly growing demands of the market on an equal footing, machine manufacturers as well as woodworking and machining companies must optimize processes and increase productivity without forgoing quality.
Processes: Optimized administration and control
CAMBIUM
A single software solution for all Hundegger machines and systems
THE HIGHLIGHTS
With several joinery machines and/or cutting machines in combination with automated conveying and feeding systems, industrial joinery is optimized at the highest level. Thanks to the fully automatic allocation of individual parts to the machine particularly suitable for them and the fully automatic loading from a central warehouse, throughput is increased enormously and waste is reduced to a minimum.
Loading
Fully automatic filling of the warehouse and loading of the downstream machines. Production continues without interruption.
Optimum combinations
CAMBIUM manages and controls a wide variety of machine combinations.
HUNDEGGER K2-Industry
Pick & Feed feeding system for Hundegger systems
The range of tasks of the fully automatic pick & feed system essentially includes two aspects. On the one hand, it is used to fill the floor storage, from which pre-positioned wood packages with construction timber, glued laminated timber, solid structural timber or TJi beams are unstacked. On the other hand, the system manages the feed to the feed cross conveyor of a Hundegger joinery or cutting machine or a machining center.
To fill the floor storage, a package of raw wood is placed at the storage area by the operating staff using a crane or forklift and aligned with stops. The layer gripper of the pick & feed machine then positions it fully automatically over the package and transports it in individual layers to a free space in the floor storage. To load the SPM-2 with plasterboard, chipboard or OSB boards, this is done using vacuum technology.
The dimensions of the wood and wood packages as well as their position are saved by the computer of the joinery or cutting machine and displayed graphically on the screen. From the information from the ground support, the single member construction program finally retrieves the data for the required cross-sections and lengths for a construction project. The layer gripper then transports the required wood packages fully automatically to the feed cross conveyor, with unneeded raw wood in a layer being placed back in the warehouse.
