DOMELESS ROUND VIBRATORS / SPECIALIZED VIBRATORS

These systems are used for surface machining of engine parts, such as blisk and disc parts, vane segments and gearing components. The components are clamped fast to the system, achieving highly efficient machining.

Their machining tasks include smoothing the surface, removing ghost lines and reducing surface roughness to defined roughness values.

• Edge rounding on leading and trailing edges can be taken into consideration.

• These systems can be manufactured up to a diameter of 2200 mm or more.

CONTINUOUS FLOW INSTALLATIONS

Whether its wing segments, stiffeners or stringers, Rosler continuous flow installations for the aerospace industry display their strength in the finishing of structural components. Shot blasting and peening are the ideal applications for this industry.

Through their modular construction, Rosler continuous flow installations are ideally suited for the continual and thorough finishing of very long components. Two independent robots allow for simultaneous finishing of the components on two sides.

The component transport is possible in both horizontal and vertical directions.

HIGH ENERGY DISC SYSTEMS

This system technology is used to machine small work piece dimensions, such as compressor blades or other small parts.

Their machining objectives include deflashing, grinding ghost lines and removing the “forging skin” after the forging process of turbine blades, for example.

These systems are available both in semi-automatic and fully automatic versions.

HIGH SPEED ROUND VIBRATORS

These systems generate up to 10 times greater removal capacity than conventional round vibrators. These systems are used, for example, in forge manufacturing of turbine components.

Components are machined in bulk. This system technology is characterized by high throughput rates in conjunction with correspondingly high capacity of material removal.

SOLVENT SPRAY INSTALLATIONS

With our solvent spray installations, Rosler offers user-friendly solutions for the automated cleaning of gear parts and similar components.

The solvent is sprayed at high pressure onto the components to flush out shavings and remove stubborn contamination such as residual oil from the surface. Then the solvent is recycled and reused.

L-DOOR INSTALLATIONS

Featuring our L-door installations, Rosler offers ideal finishing solutions for undercarriage manufacturers. Designed for the finishing of large format components, our L-shaped access door allows for problem-free loading and unloading, using an overhead crane.

Rosler’s L-door installations cover a wide spectrum of applications including the precise finishing of defined exterior surfaces, as well as the internal blasting of drill holes and feed-throughs. Parts can be finished inside and out simultaneously.

The use of robots ensures reliable, efficient and fully automated production processes. Automatic nozzle changes can also be integrated into the finishing process.

MOBILE BLAST UNITS

The work on previously installed components is significantly simplified with Rosler’s mobile blasting systems. Significant reductions in time and costs are made possible by flexible use in all installation situations. Available in various expansion stages, we will find the most suitable mobile blast unit for your application.

The spectrum of applications of Rosler’s mobile blasting units ranges from simple cleaning tasks, to stripping of painted surfaces to manual directional blasting on aircraft structures.

WET BLASTING CABINETS

With a broad portfolio of wet blasting processes, Rosler can offer the right installation for manual or automatic blasting tasks, capable of processing both small and large components.

The wet blasting method is typically used for surface improvement, cleaning, stripping, preparation of coatings, deburring and shot peening. Wet blasting is especially well suited for finishing delicate, precision produced parts.

The main advantages are:

• No dust
• Ability to use fine abrasives
• Reduced fragmentation due to the protective water film
• Reduced risk of abrasive inclusions

The recirculation of the water/abrasive mixture is achieved by using special, high durability sludge pumps, which provide excellent technical and environmental benefits.

All installations are available with Rosler’s innovative line of process water recycling systems. These include centrifuge and hydrocyclones, as well as our patented chemical process water cleaners.

SWIVEL TABLE INSTALLATIONS

Production space costs money. With Rosler’s swivel table installations, we offer you an extremely compact machine for the finishing of small to large components.

The table, which swivels outwards, is not only extremely ergonomic and space-saving, but aids in the loading and unloading outside of the machine. The table is equipped with satellites for optimal component placement. This makes the finishing of nearly every component possible: from small turbine blades to the larger parts of the undercarriage.

Optional interior blast lances on the roof of the swivel table installation also enable interior blasting of cylindrical components, such as drive shafts.

We offer individually engineered and built special components. Travel distances can be accurately calculated and determined in advance by using computer-based robot simulations.

SURF-FINISHER

Using these highly automated vibratory grinding systems, specific work piece geometries can be processed in order to achieve defined edge rounding on turbine components, for example. Parts that are not to be machined are excluded. The robot selectively guides the work piece in a rotating work container.

Maximum precision, repetition accuracy and “one piece flow” are realized with this system technology.

This new type of vibratory grinding offers users the possibility of simple interlinking with upstream or downstream machining centers, such as for determining surface roughness or for contour measurement.

PLUNGE AND DRAG GRINDING SYSTEMS

These systems are used for turbine components with smaller dimensions, such as compressor blades or segments and disc components in order to achieve a defined rounding in a “fir tree profile.”

They can also machine gearing components, however. The work pieces are accommodated on rotating individual spindles and moved by the static grinding tool mass.

Sensitive areas of the work pieces can be covered and thereby protected from machining.

TROUGH VIBRATORS

Trough vibrators are suitable for the surface finishing of aircraft structural components made from aluminum or titanium, such as, landing gear and transmission components. Work pieces of up to 8,000 mm in length and approx. 1,000 mm in width can be processed.

They perform the finishing tasks of smoothing the surface, removing ghost lines, deflashing and edge rounding.

PROCESS SUPERVISION

The highest degree of process safety and reliability are the criteria which make process supervision essential today. With the PC Supervisor, Rosler has developed a computer control specifically for the aerospace industry, which supervises and visualizes the entire finishing process.

This forms the basis for an improved and comprehensive understanding of your process engineering, through remote maintenance and fine alignments. All functions of Industry 4.0 are supported by the PC Supervisor.

The PC supervisor is available in two versions: As PC Supervisor SPC, it is used during the finishing process for statistical process control and above all for the user-friendly creation of protocols and documentation.

As PC Supervisor Master, it is available for integral process control. At this higher level of design, systems can be controlled directly from the computer or individual process optimization can be done. Integrated service management is also possible for component wear and tear. The installation and its individual systems are designed to be visually pleasing and enable a perfect overview of the process.

Direct network integration with the customer network is also possible.
