Integration of robot, spindle/positioner, and thermal spray equipment for salvage and repair

Large Caterpillar spindles, axles, and wheels require thermal spray operations to salvage and repair when worn. To manipulate these parts, Progressive builds special spindles and roller fixtures. A custom HMI integrates the automation with an ABB robot and thermal spray equipment.

  • ABB 4600 robot for long reach of thermal spray guns
  • 15,000-pound capacity spindle
  • Spindle is programmable and shot-pinned at 90 degree positions
  • Roller fixture adjustable for part length and diameter
