This video shows the cell rather than a single press: in-feed conveyor, gantry loader, straightening station, and out-feed lane working as one line. The gantry sets a shaft on the rests, probes map runout during rotation, and the press corrects bend after bend while the next part waits in queue. Re-measurement gates every release: the shaft leaves only after its readings clear, and the gantry swaps in the next blank so the press rarely waits. Rejected parts are diverted with their measurement records.
In this layout one operator supervises several machines instead of feeding one, which is where the largest savings appear in high-volume plants; manual-load CNC versions of the same machine suit smaller batches, with one person running one or two presses. Cycles run 20–90 seconds regardless of loading method, and output holds at 5–10 times manual straightening. The line concept is covered in our range of automatic straightening equipment.
Automotive and hydraulic plants use such cells for drive shafts, piston rods, and gear shafts in continuous batches, with data logging feeding traceability. Conveyor layout, gantry versus robotic loading, and MES connection are engineered per project; machines are built for 380–480 V three-phase and delivered in 60–120 days. Process background is in our note on how the automatic straightening process works.
Cells are designed around takt time, not a press catalogue. Sketch the conveyor runs and target seconds per shaft; our line team returns a loading and gantry concept to match — ask for a free evaluation for the review.
