MATERIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS

Functions of material
handling system Primary Work Handling
system
• Move workparts b/w
machines Secondary Work Handling
• Orient and locate workparts system
for processing at the
machines
How about a combined primary handling
and secondary handling system?
 Functions of a material handling
Primary work handling system
• Computer control compatibility
• Provide random independent
movements
• Permit temporary storage of
parts
• Access to machine tools for
maintenance and tool changing
• Interface with secondary work
handling system
Secondary work handling system
• Interface with primary
handling system
• Compatible with computer
control
• Permit temporary storage of
parts
• Provide parts orientation
• Access to machine tool for
maintenance and tool
changing
Computer control system

Functions of computer in CIMS

• Machine Control
• Direct Numerical Control (DNC)
• Production Control
• Traffic Control
• Shuttle Control
• Work handling system monitoring
• Tool control
• System performance monitoring and control
Human Labor
• System manager
• Electrical Technician
• Mechanical/hydraulic technician
• Tool setter
• Fixture setup and lead man
• Load/ unload man
• Rover operator
History

• 1955 - John Parsons and US Air Force define a need

to develop a machine tool capable of machining
complex and close tolerance aircraft parts with the
same quality time after time (repeatability). MIT is
the subcontractor and builds the machine for the
project.
