The invention concerns a device for the automatic loading of workpieces into a gear manufacturing machine, in particular a hard state finishing machine, by means of a swivel device arranged on the machine, where simultaneous with the machining process of a work piece blank () clamped on the work spindle () a finish machined work piece () on the transfer platform () located opposite the work spindle is de-oiled in a work piece loading lock, removed, and a fresh work piece blank fed in. The transfer platform () is designed as a centrifuge station.

Gear manufacturing machine and process for the operation of such a gear manufacturing machine

A handling apparatus can be used with particular advantage as a pallet moving apparatus, and includes a machine frame with an extension arm, movable in the vertical direction and in the horizontal direction, on which is provided an engaging element for receiving a gripping device. The extension arm has a first rocker element that is mounted on the machine frame and is driven rotatably about a horizontal rotation axis, and at its free end a second rocker element is arranged rotatably and is positively coupled to the first rocker element via a linkage in such a way that when the first rocker element rotates, the engaging element describes a locus curve with largely linear horizontal and vertical sections. Preferably the two rocker elements are positively coupled in such a way that an imaginary rotation of the first rocker element through 360 degrees results in a substantially square locus curve in a vertical plane. The apparatus requires only one NC axis in order to be able to arrive at every point on the locus curve, and is of simple and space-saving construction.

Handling apparatus

Printing-plate magazine for printing machine

The invention proposes a handling system and method for feeding workpieces to a subsequent machining unit having a working area which is enclosed toward the outside by a protective wall and in which a stack presentation device, preferably configured as a pallet transfer device, is provided for presenting workpiece carriers with unmachined workpieces and for receiving workpiece carriers after the machine operation. A loading device is assigned to the stack presentation device for receiving workpieces and for delivering them to the subsequent machining unit. Feeding the workpiece carriers into the working area is effected by a stack-changing device, preferably designed as a rotary table having an H-shaped rotary frame into which the workpiece carrier stacks can be introduced on trolleys. In the area of the stack-changing device, the rotary table comprises a protective wall section which separates the working area completely from the loading area so that a change of the workpiece carrier stacks can be carried out in the loading area without any risk, while the workpiece carriers are being processed in the working area.
