Dual-vacuum, dual-bay stacker for long sheets.A custom stacker for sheet over 20 ft long is under construction at Vulcan Vulcan, in astronomy Vulcan, in astronomy, hypothetical planet whose existence was proposed by Leverrier to explain part of the advance of the perihelion of Mercury, not all of which could be accounted for by gravitational effects of the other planets under Machinery Corp., Akron Ohio It-requires two vacuum stackers with servo An electromechanical device that uses feedback to provide precise starts and stops for such functions as the motors on a tape drive or the moving of an access arm on a disk. motors for precise positioning Precise Positioning is a term used to describe techniques to obtain the location of an object to better than a few centimeters of accuracy. Historically precise positioning was associated with surveying and geodesy. and support along the traveling arm. Previously, Vulcan's largest sheet stackers could handle sizes up to 12 x 12 ft with a single vacuum slacken slack·en tr. & intr.v. slack·ened, slack·en·ing, slack·ens 1. To make or become slower; slow down: The runners slackened their pace. Air speed slackened. 2. The dual stacker is T-shaped and stacks on both sides of the cutoff, so a finished stack can be removed while a new stack is being built in the opposite bay. It's believed to be the first such system on the market. The machine can also stack shorter sheets at higher speed by using only one of the two vacuum pick-up units, Tel: (330) 376-6025 * PTDirect: 863VR [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] |
