The automatic label printing system from Schelling increases output for single

line saws and angular saws if all parts have to get an individual label.

ConventionalmethodOftenlabelsareappliedtopositivelyidentifycutparts.Typicallythelabelprinter

is located after the cut line at the cross aligning fence of the saw. Labels are printed in

real time and are dispensed by the printer for manual pickup. The operator removes

thelabelandappliesittotheappropriatepart.Consistentinnovationsandimprovements

ofpanelsawshavedramaticallyimprovedtheoutputofpanelsaws.Especiallysaws

with two feeders that can cut two different sizes at one time increase output dramatically.

If it is required to place a label on each part, the operator will be overwhelmed by the

complexity and volume of labels that need to be placed onto parts; hence he has to stop

the machine frequently to keep up. Therefore, the theoretical output of the highly efficient

saw cannot be reached.

label printing

OptimizedworkmethodSchelling has developed an automatic label printing system for automatic

loading panel saws and cut-to-size plants. Labels will be applied to the panel in the

infeed area, while the previous pattern is being processed in the saw.

The location of the label on the part can be programmed (depiction 1).

If a part is turned 90 degrees in the pattern, the label will be turned accordingly.

Additionally, every label placed will be checked via a control scan.

Therefore, all parts are already labeled as they come off the saw. Handling

two different parts that come off the saw at the same time is absolutely

no problem; therefore, no capacity reduction is experienced due to labeling.

The functional description of a cut-to-size saw with automatic push infeed

and with automatic label applicator is as follows:

Functional descriptionThe printer is stationary mounted on the side of the infeed station

and dispenses labels according to the cut pattern (depiction 2).

An applicator with rotating head picks up the label (depiction 3) and

places it onto the panel (depiction 4). The applicator has its own

X-axis and the push off carriage provides the Y-axis.

Therefore, labels can be applied anywhere on the panel and in

theappropriateorientation(depiction5).Oncethelabelisapplied,

the applicator moves up into its home position and simultaneously,

thelabelisscannedandcheckedforproperinformation.Oncethe

information is confirmed, the next label is printed and the

process repeats itself until all labels are applied.

Oncethelabelprocessisfinished,theinfeedpusherpushesthepanel

into the saw to start the cutting process (depiction below).

Cut-to-sizesawsandplants with vacuum infeedSaws with vacuum infeed or an inventory system with vacuum carriage can

process books where each individual board is labeled. This process requires

the vacuum to place the panel onto the roller table behind the saw

and then the label applicator applies the labels. In this configuration the

applicatorismountedontoitsownX/Ycarriage.Oncefinishedthevacuum

places another board on top of the previous one and the process repeats itself.

The DUPLUS2 concept increases productivity of cut-to-size saws by utilizing two

independent feeders to position the material in the saw. This allows for simultaneous

cutting of head and main piece or cutting of staggered patterns with one cut.

The second feeder is located at the cross aligning fence and has two clamps

with four clamp fingers. (depiction below)

For the cutting pattern below, the production process of a

cut-to-size saw with turntable in the roller table is as follows

Functional descriptionThe turntable in the roller table rotates the board by 90 degrees and the head cut

is executed according to the cutting pattern. The head piece is then moved to the

cross aligning fence and pushed into the second feeder by the operator. The main

piece is automatically rotated back 90 degrees and taken over by the main feeder.

Bothpiecesarenowindependentlypositionedforthefirstcut.Theheadpartis

now being finished, while the main part is cut into strips. (depiction 1).

CrosscuttingofmainpieceThe first two strips of the main piece are turned 90 degrees and moved

against the cross aligning fence. The second feeder clamps the first strip and

thesecondisclampedbythemainfeeder.Bothstripsarenowindependently

positioned for the first and subsequent cuts (depiction 2). Depending on

the strip width, only the clamps that are needed are engaged. The clamps

are fully automatically controlled by the saw. (depiction 3).

The last two strips of the main piece are processed as previously explained.

Automatic loading saws with separate push-off carriage can load and align

a new board, while the previous one is processed.

It is also possible that only the second feeder is needed for the last cross cuts.

The demand for high flexibility with small lot sizes rises constantly in industrial

manufacturing of furniture.There are new demands, especially for

cutting-to-size. In the future, it will be essential that cut-to-size plants guarantee

speedy cycle times and optimized material utilisation when processing small lot

sizes. 3rd phase cuts are an essential component to guarantee this.

Uptonowitwasnotpossibletoproducefullyautomated3rd phase cuts on

acut-to-sizeplant.SchellinghasachievedjustthiswiththeNEWrevolutionary

development of the 3rd phase cut router that allows 3rd phase cuts with

a perfect cut quality and highest size tolerances.

3rd phase cut-to-size plantCommissionablecut-to-sizewithhighestflexibilityandoutput

3 rd phase cut plant

Functional descriptionThe 3rd phase cut-router is used in connection with a conventional cut-to-size

angular plant. Single boards are cut into strips on the rip-cut saw and then moved to the

cross-cutarea.Beforethe3rd phase cut application, the strips are clamped and moved

towardsthecross-cutsawbytheprogrammedfeedercarriage.Nowthetrimcutonthe

cross-cut saw is made and the part aligned against the cross-cut-fence. The programmed

feeder carriage then pushes the strips through the stationary router for 3rd phase cuts.

During the milling the specially designed strip aligner with press-roller constantly pushes

against the material and guarantees absolute accurate sizing.

The required 3rd phase cut width is achievable with the moveable frequency controlled

drive router. The router is raised to the working area by a servo motor.

A separate extraction system for the router provides a perfect, dust free surface. The

extraction hood is lowered on to the material during the milling progress. The integrated

rollers in the extraction hood hold the material down against the roller table underneath.

Oncetherequired3rd phase cut depth has been milled, the router lowers

and the feeder positions the strip for the cut-to-size process.

For a board thickness of up to 25 mm the router tool has a diameter of 10 mm.

The saw blade of the cross-cut saw is 5.4 mm and therefore we can guarantee that

with only one cut cycle, the parts are produced with a perfectly cut edge.

Thetrimwasteisremovedviaanadjustablewasteflapintoawastebin.

This waste bin tilts and turns 90° so that trim waste is disposed into the waste

conveyor of the cross-cut saw.

Innovative MaterialHandling

Robots

Manually-supportedrobotstackingStack layers are arranged manually after the saw. With the recently developed stacking

program, the operator at the stacking terminal (screen) receives precise information

with graphic support as to how the next stack layer should be grouped. The operator creates

the stack layer and acknowledges the process. From there the stack layer is transferred

automatically to the robot's acceptance position where it is re-aligned before stacking.

Fully-automatic robot stackingVariousimplementationsareavailableforfully-automaticrobotstackingsolutions.

Depending on the output required and the stacking specifications, simple designs with

direct acceptance of the parts from a roller track or complex solutions with integrated

sorting, turning, manipulation and collection systems can be offered. In addition, it is

possible to combine robot stacking with traditional fork or gripper stacking systems.
