A device capable of separating a remnant from a product part irrespective of a shape of the remnant. The device includes a first attraction part which attracts a first part and is moved downward; a second attraction part provided movable relative to the first attraction part to attract a second part; a jig which comes into contact with a back surface of the second part to prevent the second part from moving downward; and further a position maintaining part which maintains a position of the second attraction part relative to the first attraction part when the first attraction part is moved downward to separate the first part from the second part.

Device for releasing catch between precut substrates, robot, and robot system therefor

A dissimilar-metal joining tool that places a ring-shaped joining auxiliary member made of iron, on a surface of a workpiece in which a second metal plate made of non-ferrous metal is laminated on a first metal plate made of iron, coaxially with a through-hole penetrates the second metal plate, and that performs arc welding toward an inner hole of the joining auxiliary member, the dissimilar-metal joining tool includes a base attached to a distal end of a robot; an arc welding torch attached to the base; a positioning mechanism provided in the base, and places the inner hole at a joining position in the arc welding torch and holds the joining auxiliary member in a radially-positioned state; and a pressing mechanism presses the joining auxiliary member in the vicinity of an outer peripheral edge.

A wire electric discharge machining system according to the present invention includes: a wire electric discharge machine that relatively moves a wire electrode and a workpiece to be machined according to a program, and subjects the workpiece to be machined to electric discharge machining by the wire electrode; at least one hand; a robot which mounts the hand on a head of an arm, and operates an object to be operated; and a visual sensor that detects a position of a machined workpiece in a machining tank, which has been cut from the workpiece to be machined by the electric discharge machining, wherein the robot performs an operation of removing the machined workpiece from the machining tank, based on the position of the machined workpiece, which has been detected by the visual sensor.

Wire electric discharge machining system

The conveyor system of the present invention comprises a conveyor robot having a hand and arm, and a pair of gripping jigs attached to a conveyed object. The hand of the conveyor robot comprises a body part attached to an arm, a pair of projecting parts projecting out from different positions of the body part in the same direction, hook parts provided on the pair of projecting parts, and pushing parts attached to the body part adjoining the pair of projecting parts and configured to move along the projection direction of the pair of projecting parts to generate a pushing force. Each gripping jig attached to a conveyed object comprises of a pushed part pushed by a pushing part of the hand, and a rod-shaped part caught on a hook part of the hand.
