A recloser assembly flow line must integrate conveying, assembly, testing and control into one system. Whether the equipment selection is reasonable directly determines whether the line can run stably and be maintained easily. Taizhou Yufeng Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. follows the principle of "equipment serving the process" to configure assembly flow line equipment for recloser manufacturers, covering the complete process from part loading to finished product unloading.
Conveyor and positioning system
The conveyor line uses roller conveyors or power-and-free chains, selected according to product weight and cycle time. The line is equipped with locating pallets, stopper cylinders and station lifting devices so products are positioned accurately between stations. Product fixtures are mounted on the pallets, and different models are accommodated through quick-change fixtures. The line cycle is controlled uniformly by the PLC, and station completion signals interlock with line movement to prevent misoperation.
Assembly machines and auxiliary equipment
For highly repetitive processes, assembly machines are configured, such as storage mechanism assembly assist devices, contact pressing equipment and torque tightening machines. The machines use pneumatic or servo drives with settable parameters to ensure consistent action. For operations requiring larger force, pressing equipment replaces manual work. Auxiliary equipment includes assist hoists, turning fixtures and parts delivery carts to reduce physical workload.
Test stations and data collection
The test stations are equipped with mechanical characteristic testers, withstand voltage testers and loop resistance measurement equipment. The test equipment is networked with the line control system. After assembly, products automatically enter testing, and results are judged and uploaded automatically. Every product number is bound to the test data, forming a quality file. The test station uses quick-change test fixtures to adapt to different models.
Line control system
The line uses a PLC plus touch screen control architecture. The touch screen displays line status, cycle statistics, alarm information and daily output. The control program supports recipe management, and parameter groups are switched during changeover. The system reserves a MES interface to connect with the factory management system for real-time production data sharing.
Maintenance and upgrade
The line equipment uses common components for easy spare part purchasing and maintenance. Maintenance reminders are set at key stations to reduce downtime risk. Stations or equipment can be added later according to output growth without affecting the existing line.
