    摘要: A connector processing machine includes a contact feeding mechanism at a contact loading station having a dereeler configured to support a contact reel having a strip of contacts and a feed device configured to feed the contacts from the contact loading station to a contact stacking station. The connector processing machine includes a contact stacking module at a contact stacking station having a contact punch mechanism with a contact cutter configured to successively shear the contacts from the contact strip and a contact inserter mechanism with a contact pusher configured to successively move the sheared contact into a contact nest where the contacts are stacked into a contact stack. The connector processing machine includes a contact manipulator configured to pick the contact stack from the contact nest and place the contact stack into a connector housing.

    摘要: A safeguard enclosure of an autonomous part processing system for enclosing an autonomous guided vehicle (AGV) is provided. The safeguard enclosure includes a frame having panels defining an enclosed space. The frame has an opening allowing the AGV to enter and exit the enclosed space. The frame surrounds a parking spot for the AGV in the enclosed space. The safeguard enclosure includes a safety system for controlling operation of the AGV. The safety system includes an AGV location sensor configured to detect presence of the AGV at the parking spot. The safety system configured to control operation of the AGV based on an AGV location signal from the AGV location sensor. The safety system includes a presence sensor configured to detect presence of an object other than the AGV in the enclosed space. The safety system configured to control operation of the AGV based on an object presence signal from the presence sensor.
