Overview
Atlas End of Line Part Racking Systems were developed to improve part flow from the press and
improve the AGV and/or fork truck traffic associated with the delivery and removal of part
racking containers.


End of Line Systems are high speed conveyance devices that are located at the end of a transfer
press or after the last press of a tandem line. The system services multiple racking stations
simultaneously, delivering parts in close proximity to the associated container.


End of Line System configurations provide a zone between the racking personnel and the isle
utilized for fork truck traffic. A clear pathway for plant traffic allows efficient container delivery
and removal, yet keeps a safe distance from the racking personnel, thereby preventing injury.


With an Atlas End of Line System, the press is able to run at optimal speed because the parts are
equally distributed to personnel in an ergonomic fashion. This provides for higher throughput and
higher safety associated with loading part containers.
How it Works….
Atlas End of Line Part Racking Systems
may be implemented with Transfer Press
Lines or after the last press of a Tandem
Press Line and are configured to meet
the customers requirements for line
speed and the available footprint for the
equipment.

The Transfer Press System will typically
consist of the following:

A multiple lane exit conveyor having a
fixed length, an adjustable height load
end (fixed height discharge) and
adjustable width using the outer belt
conveyors. All motions are powered and
programmable. The exit conveyor will
deposit the parts onto one of two belt
conveyor systems mounted to a cross
shuttle mechanism. The cross shuttle will
be used to position the conveyor in front
of the pack out (part) tray. The operator
manually removes the parts from the
pack out tray and loads the racks.

The exit conveyor deposits the parts onto
one of two belt conveyor systems
mounted to a cross shuttle mechanism.

The cross shuttle will be used to position
the conveyor in front of one of the three
pack out or part trays.

The operator manually removes the
parts from the pack out trays and loads
the racks or containers.

System Features
Atlas End of Line Systems are constructed of a modular design, allowing multiple configurations
to suit our customers exact needs. Each system includes the runout conveyor, shuttle
conveyor and packout (part delivery) trays. Part delivery trays include fluorescent lights for
visual inspection and may include cup holders and fans for operater convenience and
comfort.
 
End of Line Systems are capable of processing double unattached parts and are equipped
with part sensors on the conveyors. Indexing of the conveyors is controlled by motion
controllers and a PLC.
 
The runout conveyor can be adjustable for height and width and is constructed with a
urethane belt, mounted to a steel slider frame that has a center drive pulley and take-up
mechanism. The mounting brackets on each conveyor will accept the ridged mount for the
linear bearing for adjustable width (18” per side).
 
Flush to the floor part rack turntables are available along with a more compact design which
incorporates a shuttle that rotates slightly at the end of its travel. This permits rack turntables
on the floor with a reasonable footprint in situations where space limitations are a concern.
 
As an option, a center part racking station may be added for flexibility in low and high speed
operations.
 
Robotic part racking is available and may incorporate vision systems. Atlas can provide
robotic simulations and reach studies for the customers choice of robot vendor

Specifications
 
In transfer press applications, a
manual rack loading End of Line
System is capable of managing 16
parts per minute (32 double
unattached).
 
In tandem press line applications,
a manual rack loading End of Line
System is capable of managing 12
parts per minute (24 double
unattached).
 
The actual production capacity is
dependent on press speeds,
number of racking stations
implemented, dies and part sizes.

The Objectives
Our customers have based their equipment acquisition on the following three objectives:

First: Increase stamping capacity within the existing floor space. This provides more effective use
of existing presses and eliminates the material handling bottle neck at the end of the line. The
End of Line System also helps to ensure consistent part quality because each blank is hand
inspected.

Second: Improve traffic and part flow through the plant. Open isles for material handling
equipment and personnel allows easy pick-up and drop-off of containers. By having empty
containers available for operators to utilize, production capacity increases because the press
remains active at all times.

Third: Improve the ergonomics of part racking for the associated personnel which reduces lost
time due to injury and insurance claims.

End of Line Systems accomplish all of these goals and increase throughput at the same time.
