Rubeer sheet strip cutting machine

Designed for a tyre manufacturer. Used an Allen Bradley servo for pulling the sheet to the required length, a rodless Festo pneumatic cylinder then dragged a motorized rotary blade to slice the sheet at the required length. The required lengths and number of pieces were entered in a 6inch HMI screen by the operator. To prevent sheet moving during the slicing process a pneumatic cylinder held the sheet.

Cashew sorter

A miniature prototype of a cashew sorting system. After roasting cashews are required to be sorted based on the level of roasting. Cashews are made to fall on a Rockwell servo operated indexing table. A Cognex vision camera "sees" the cashews and a software signals a simple pneumatic SOV to blow the cashews into their respective collection boxes.
