The Automated Clamp Carrier woodworking clamps system is the industry
standard for high production edge gluing. Sizes range
from 20 to 80 sections with widths up to 16-1/2’ (5
M) wide. The Automated machine doubles operator productivity
with its automatic cycle which tightens the clamps
on new stock, rotates the machine, and loosens the
clamps on panels to be removed. This allows the wood clamp operator
to spend 100% of their time preparing and loading stock.
It also reduces operator effort and paces the overall
production. As with all Taylor Clamp Carriers, smaller
machines can be expanded as production requirements
grow.
Production
Production is based on cycle time and panel size. Assuming
that each section is curing 3 panels whose dimensions
are 24" x 24" (60cm x 60cm) and assuming
a cycle time of 90 seconds, production per shift equals:
One
Panel:
=4 ft2 (.36M2)
One Section:
=12 ft2 (1.1M2)
One Cycle:
=90 seconds
=40 cycles/hour
=320 cycles/shift
Production output:
=12 ft2 x 320 cycles or 3840 ft2/shift
=1.1 M2 x 320
cycles or 352 M2/shift
