This line uses a fully automated design to improve processing efficiency.
Racks leaving the broaching machine are transferred automatically to the first finishing station and processed through to final oiling, ready for assembly.
The rack finishing line comprises:
Tooth-end deburring and washing; hardening; rack straightening; tooth-surface deburring; polishing of the rack back and shaft; flaw detection and demagnetization; and final washing, air drying, heat drying and oiling.
The case describes one-operator production with a cycle time below 30 seconds.
