ABSTRACT:
A manipulator system for automatically feeding blanks into a gap press and for collecting finished articles therefrom has two major parts. The first part is a revolver table and the second part is an automatic handling device, or robot. The revolver table should be located between the press and the robot. It is stepwise rotatable around a vertical axis and has a number of arms each carrying a set of tools. The robot has at least two arms swingable around a vertical axis between positions for collecting blanks, for temporary holding of semiprocessed articles, as well as for placement of blanks and semifinished articles between selected tool sets on the arms of the revolver table and for sequential working in the press and for delivery of finished articles.
