Fully automated laser trimming cell for radial shaft seals (RWDR)
My role. Mechanical Concept | 3D Mechanical Design | Manufacturing-Ready Drawings | Prototyping
Project description.
Development of a high-precision
special-purpose machine for the automated removal of
vulcanization flash from radial shaft seals. The process is
non-contact, utilizing fiber laser technology to ensure
clean separation at the mold parting line without causing
thermal damage to the sealing lip.
Technical Data:
Application: Trimming of FKM seals (inner diameter
70 – 90 mm).
Cut Thickness: Up to 2 mm (vulcanization flash).
Laser Source: Fiber laser.
Beam Delivery: Fiber optic cable with integrated
collimator.
Optics: Beam diameter 7 mm (input), focus diameter
< 0.2 mm.
Cycle Time:5 sec/component
