Abstract: An apparatus for locating a preform on a mold includes a preform handling tool and a force sensor coupled to the preform handling tool such that the force sensor is capable of sensing forces applied to the preform during handling of the preform by the preform handling tool. The apparatus includes a control device that is arranged and operable to move the preform handling tool relative to the mold. A method of locating the preform on the mold includes picking up the preform using the preform handling tool and placing the preform in a vicinity of the mold. Positions on the mold are mapped with an edge of the preform with the aid of the force sensor. The preform is paced on the mold according to the mapped positions.
Abstract translation: 用于在模具上定位预成型件的装置包括预成型件处理工具和耦合到预成型件处理工具的力传感器,使得力传感器能够感测由预成型件处理工具处理预成型件期间施加到预成型件的力。 该装置包括控制装置,该控制装置被布置和可操作以相对于模具移动预成型件处理工具。 将预型件定位在模具上的方法包括使用预成型件处理工具拾起预成型件并将预成型件放置在模具附近。 借助于力传感器,将模具上的位置与预成型件的边缘对准。 根据映射位置,预成型件在模具上起步。

Abstract: An end-of-arm tool is described and includes an outer sheet and an inner sheet. The end-of-arm tool may be reinforced with a backing plate attached to the inner sheet and a front plate attached to the outer sheet. The end-of-arm tool may also include spacers to provide structure and rigidity to the end-of-arm tool at passages configured for the installation of workpiece interface tools, for example, spring plungers.
