TRANSPORTER® LOW PROFILE-1

TRANSPORTER® LOW PROFILE Permanent Magnetic, Air Release Tooling/End Effectors Applications & Benefits: » » » » » » » » » » » » Automated press to press transfer systems Robotic “Pick & Place” Manual and automated machine loading/unloading Outlasts vacuum cups in most applications TPLP30DA Grasps odd shaped or perforated parts Increases production and reduces shop air costs Operates effectively in any orientation Will not drop parts if system air-loss occurs Reduces noise Maximum operating temperature 140°F (60°C) Destacks* without double-blanking when the appropriate magnet is selected for the application Double Acting Option Available** Release Grip ¼" OD Tube (DA Only) Transporter® Low Profile (TPLP) Magnets: *Destacking (Option DS): Required for applications destacking metal that is thin. See Chart. (available on TPL30 & TPLP50 only). The Destacking Option features a special magnetic circuit that is designed to destack sheets as thin as 0.030” (22 ga). **Double Acting (Option DA): O-Ring seals & extra air inlet allow a short blast of air to engage or disengage grip function (available » Powerful Rare Earth magnet positively holds parts - no dropping or shifting in the event as TPL30DA & TPLP50DA only). Operates at of air loss pressures as low as 15 psi. Allows use of 1/4" » Lightweight, low-profile design for minimal die clearance Lines. Run up to 16 magnets from 1 valve. » Instantaneous pick-up and release NOTE: Supply air pressure must not exceed 60 PSI (30 PSI for Double Acting models) at the » Uses up to 95% less air than vacuum cups Transporter® LP inlet. Operating at pressures » Easy installation on existing tooling booms or robotic face plate. above 60 PSI (30 PSI for Double Acting » Threads onto a variety of typical 3/8 NPT vacuum cup tooling, including quick disconnect models) will lead to premature failure of the adapters unit. Air must be clean, dry and non-lubricated. » 3/8 BSPP Fitting - British Standard Pipe Parallel (G) Thread (Option BS): Available on Air pressure should never be applied to TPLP15 & TPLP30 only. the Transporter ® LP during a transfer cycle. This will cause the loss of a part. Apply air » Extra Strength (Option ES): Available on TPLP30 only. See Chart for lifting when in position to release the part. In some specifications. applications, air may need to be applied to retract the magnet before contacting the part. Key Markets If the magnet “reach out” lifts the part from the Automotive Tier 1 & 2, Stamping guides before making contact, causing loss of part position, apply air to the Transporter ® LP Related Products prior to lifting the part. Another option is to use Sheet Lifters, Tube Lifters, Transporters®, Permatrol® Family, Perm-Electro Lifts, PowerLifts®, Creative Lifts® a Double Acting TPLP. The Transporter® LP is designed to directly replace vacuum cups with minor tooling and valve adjustments. Powerful Rare Earth magnets positively hold the parts during transfer, greatly reducing the chance of slipping and shifting of your part due to oily coatings. An optional “lowskid” boot is also available to increase grip on parts during transfer. A short burst of shop air pressure is applied in order to release parts. To pick-up or grip parts, the air pressure must be exhausted to the atmosphere. Industrial Magnetics Inc. 1385 M-75 S, Boyne City, MI 49712 » Office: 1.231.582.3100 Office: 1.231.582.3100
