Project Spotlight: Truck Engine Manufacturing Facility

• Heavy-Duty Overhead Power & Free Droplifter

Objective:

• Replace problematic existing droplifter with new, more robust unit

• Eliminate problematic air transfer and improve operator safety

• Improve rail positioning and security

• Provide greater positional accuracy and ease the process of adjustment

• Provide redundancy to maximize uptime

• Integrate into competitor’s existing system without impact to production

Solution:

• Provided new droplifter with a smaller footprint, which did not require modification to any surrounding equipment

• Lift Capacity: 7,725 pound

• Cycle Time: 80 Seconds

• Redundant motors, drives, and lifting chains

• Integrated, motor-operated transfer conveyor

• Pneumatic rail locks for safety

• Linear absolute encoder for positioning accuracy

• Area safety scanners and pert detection for safety

• Streamlined operator interface with new HMI and integrated controls.
