Dragon W100 Gantry Loading & Unloading System

Highlights

The Dragon W100 Gantry Loading & Unloading System is designed for automatic feeding, unloading, transfer and positioning of panels, timber and other woodworking components. Its gantry structure uses servo-controlled horizontal and vertical movement for stable and repeatable material handling, while the working range, payload, gantry span and gripper configuration can be adapted to different production requirements. A typical configuration handles workpieces up to approximately 70 kg, with reference workpiece dimensions of 300–3000 mm in length, 300–1200 mm in width and 10–80 mm in thickness. The system can achieve approximately 4–7 handling cycles per minute, depending on travel distance, workpiece dimensions, weight and handling sequence. The standard configuration uses a sponge-type vacuum gripper as shown in the reference image, while vacuum cup layout, gripper size and vacuum generation method can be customized. PLC, electrical, pneumatic and control components can also be configured according to project requirements and regional standards.

• Typical handling weight: Up to approx. 70 kg, customizable
• Typical workpiece length: 300–3000 mm, customizable
• Typical workpiece width: 300–1200 mm, customizable
• Typical workpiece thickness: 10–80 mm, customizable
• Handling capacity: Approx. 4–7 cycles/min
• Gantry structure: Customizable span and support configuration
• Vacuum handling system: Standard sponge gripper / Custom solutions available
• The gantry beam can be optionally configured with an aluminum-alloy structure for higher travel speed and faster positioning. However, the lighter beam design may limit the maximum handling payload. The standard configuration uses a steel gantry beam for higher rigidity and load capacity.

Features

• Servo-controlled horizontal and vertical axes provide stable positioning for automatic loading, unloading and workpiece transfer between machines, conveyors and production stations.
• The standard configuration uses a sponge-type vacuum gripper, while suction cup quantity, layout, gripping area and tooling structure can be customized according to workpiece size, surface condition and weight.
• Typical handling capacity is approximately 4–7 cycles per minute, with actual production speed determined by travel distance, workpiece characteristics, machine layout and required handling sequence.
• The gantry structure can be configured with 2-leg, 3-leg or 4-leg support arrangements, while gantry length, span and working envelope can be adapted to the production-line layout.
• PLC, HMI, electrical, pneumatic, sensing and vacuum components are configurable according to project requirements, including international-brand components where required for specific markets or customer standards.
