The Model GL Gantry Furnace Loader is a flexible gantry robot designed for new or existing sinter furnaces. It provides an affordable solution for loading parts and sinter plates onto a sinter furnace belt.

SPEAK WITH AN ENGINEER

“Green” powder metal parts and sinter plates (optional) are conveyed into the gantry loader. The gantry picks a part and places it directly onto the sinter belt or places it onto a sinter plate and then places the assembly (plate and part) onto the sinter belt. The Model GL also has the ability to stack parts prior to placement on the sinter belt.

Front view of the Model GL Gantry Furnace Loader with the access door open. In this application two different part infeed conveyors were used. The infeed on the left used a belt conveyor with a stripper plate to separate the parts for pick and the infeed conveyor on the right used an escapement to meter one part at a time to the pick nest.
