The exit station accepts the tire from the test station, positions it
radially for marking, and applies the high point or grade mark if an
optional marker is installed. This item includes a manually operated
drop gate that permits easy and comprehensive access to the test station
for rim change, tire setup, and periodic maintenance. The tire is
either taken off the line manually or can be sorted using an optional
three position sorter.
Tires are positioned in the test station for the proper marking orientation angle prior to transfer to the exit station.
The
exit station is a flexible arrangement so that customers can easily add
markers according to their needs. Space is provided above and below for
mounting markers. An easy-to-use ladder logic programming utility is
provided for creating and revising sequence control code. All markers are optional. These include:
High Point Grade Marker Top
This
option includes one ink or AkroMARK™ hot stamp marker that places a
10mm diameter dot at the high (or low) point of radial harmonic force
variation. The marker is mounted on a bracket above the marker
conveyor. The tilt axis setup is manual for ink markers and automatic
for AkroMARK™ Upper and Lower Hot Stamp Markers
This
option uses two ink or AkroMARK™ hot stamp markers to mark the high (or
low) point of radial harmonic force variation on the top or bottom side
of the tire. When used as a combination (Top & Bottom), this can indicate the side of (+) or (-) conicity. |
