Balancing Machines With Roboticsrobotic balancing machine manufacturer

Hines Industries has decades of experience designing and manufacturing automated balancing machines with conveyors and multi-axis robotic equipment.

Shown is fully automated balancing machine designed by Hines in the early 80's demonstrating our leadership in automation.

Today, Hines robotic solutions are typically used for:

  • Part loading
  • Part transfer
  • Balance corrections (removing or adding weight)
  • Part Sorting (good and reject bin)Robotics

By utilizing robots, operating costs and part throughput time are reduced while increasing product quality. Our infinite combination of automated options, along with the engineering capability to accommodate special needs and requests, allows you to optimize the balance between upfront cost and production demands.

Balancing Machines with Robotic Transfer

 

Shown is an example of 3 semi-automated balancing machines being fed with a single robot. The robot manually loads one component at a time into each balancing machine. The balancing machine determines the initial unbalance and corrects by drilling in both counterweights simultaneously. After the correction, the balancer audits the workpiece to confirm that the residual unbalance is within programmed tolerance levels. The robot then removes the workpiece from the balancing machine into the correct bin (good or reject).

 

Customer Showcase

"Prior to getting the first 2 Hines balancers, we liked the interface on our 2 competitor Y balancers but we had to recomp every 15 minutes. We found out the Hines balancers are the best of them all by far. We have purchased additional Hines balancers since then. We rarely need any service. When service has been required, Hines has taken care of us."
