OMEGA 740 750 Komax has developed the fully automatic block loader machines, the Omega 740 and Omega 750, for wire harness production with insertion of housings. The highly flexible system enables operator-independent production with double - sided block loading in the highest quality and different complexity without the need for inter- im storage of individual wires. It is the economi- cal answer to ongoing miniaturization and increasingly smaller batches. The Omega series makes it possible to manufacture a range of dif- ferent wire harnesses while simultaneously re- ducing production time significantly. The tried and tested EtherCAT platform improves overall system performance and significantly increases Shorter run – less storage requirement – Shortest lead times – significantly reduced pro- duction time – Minimized stock level of semi-finished products – O ptimized production process Automated quality for the end product – Continuous quality, independent of the opera- tor – R eliable loading of miniaturized components – Force monitoring of the entire loading process – Optional ACD incision monitoring High flexibility – S tandard machine – quick and individual changeover – U nlimited number of applications The optical terminal measur- ing system enables the loading of a wide range of terminals.

QUANTUM LEAP IN FULLY AUTOMATIC WIRE HARNESS PRODUCTION

PRECISION AND FLEXIBILITY FOR AUTOMATIC BLOCK LOADING Highly flexible block loading The new Omegas feature a 40 percent larger pallet to accommodate many different hous- ings. This makes it possible to mount more types of housings on a single pallet and man- ufacture different wire harness configura- tions simultaneously, thus significantly in- creasing flexibility. The pallets are loaded and unloaded as the machine is running, while another wire harness is produced on the second pallet with the newly developed, rapid hybrid gripper. Shorter lead times – less storage requirement – optimized process Decisive savings in time and logistics and a corresponding growth in productivity can be achieved thanks to the absence of manu- al steps, interim storage and transport. Cut- High flexibility and simple operation ting, crimping and loading of the terminals The new fully automatic blockloaders with all take place on the same machine and the enlarged mounting pallets ensure even time-consuming storage of individual wires greater flexibility for specific manufacturing is eliminated. Stock levels of semi-finished across a wide range of applications. They products can also be reduced, resulting in process wire harnesses in a single process faster responses to design changes and re- step from A to Z and open up new possibili- ducing the amount of material to be liqui- ties for the required wire sets. Already creat- dated. ed wire harnesses can be loaded again in seconds and re-produced. Thanks to individ- ual configurations – the Omega 740 with five process modules and the Omega 750 with eight – changeovers and interruptions are reduced to a minimum.

Wide variety with up to 36 wire types The different wire types for versatile wire har- ness production are available on the Omegas without the need for changeovers. The auto- matic wire changer provides up to 36 differ- ent wires from the entire cross-section range. Two automated inkjet printers mark the wires in black and one additional color within the same sequence. New possibilities thanks to the optional OBMS The optional OBMS optical measuring system makes the application even more flexible. It measures the individual block chambers pre- cisely using a camera system and enables the automatic loading of components that could only be processed manually until now. Guaranteed quality of the end 01 Up to 36 different cables from the entire cross section range are available in the wire selector. 02 Individual block chambers can be mea- sured precisely with the OBMS optical measuring system. 01 02

A high-precision force sensor moni- tors the entire insertion process and correct latching of the terminal parts in the housing. The individual default values are synchronized. As a result, the insertion of small components, which can almost no lon- ger be inserted by hand, is carried out in an absolutely reliable manner – supported by a precise and fast spindle drive. Thanks to the direct production of wire harnesses and the removal of interim storage, the danger of ter- minals being damaged through the storage process or from mistakes and incorrect load- ing is also eliminated. The optional automatic conductor detector 03 (ACD) reduces operator influence and en- sures quality monitoring even for the finest wires. The ACD detects the slightest contact between the blades and conductor strands during stripping. Continuous data flow and traceability Production data can be sent directly to the machine via a network. The quality data from the production process is saved for each wire harness and traceability is guaranteed at all times. Comprehensive advice for functional imple- mentation Komax brings the corresponding expert knowledge for the automation of wire har- ness production with Omega. Specialists evaluate the design of the wire harnesses and components with regard to automated processing. They present design proposals and assist companies in the optimal integra- tion into their production process.
