FESTO - Modular Production System

Distribution Station

Testing Station

Processing Station

The Distribution Station can be subdivided into two partialmodules:

·         Feed Magazine Module

·         Transfer Module

The Testing Station can be subdivided into four partial modules:

·         Detection Module

·         Lifting Module

·         Measuring Module

·         Slide Module

The Processing Station can be subdivided into three partialmodules:

·         Rotary Indexing Table Module

·         Drilling Module

·         Drilled Hole Checking Module

The purpose of the Distribution station is to separate a work piece from the magazine and to make the work piece available for a subsequent process. So the station is divided into 2 subsystems; Feed Magazine Module and Transfer Module.

The purpose of the Testing Station is to determine the material characteristics of a work piece, checking the work piece height and either reject a work piece or make it available to a subsequent station.

The purpose of the Processing Station is the processing of the work piece, which was selected in station 2. Once the processing operation has been completed, the result of the processing is checked.
