Ecolportic overhead crane

The Ecolportic automated industrial system is designed to teach automation through a model that can be operated as a surface treatment of parts. It includes all the end-effectors, actuators, pre-actuators and sensors of a real system and allows the programming of a complete part treatment cycle.
This equipment allows heavy parts to be hung on a hook (operation carried out manually in the "Loading" work area).
By means of a pre-set programme, the parts to be processed are moved along two axes:
- a horizontal axis defining six work zones,
- a vertical axis ensuring the ascent and descent in the simulated baths located below the work zones.
The last work area is an unloading station where the operator collects the "treated" parts.
