The automatic machine for ball pins for hinges by oPm is a solution designed to streamline and automate the hinge assembly process. Whether you’re producing standard or custom-sized ball pins, this machine ensures efficiency, speed, and repeatability.
This ball pins for hinges assembly machine can handle different pin sizes with minimal adjustments. It automates the insertion and locking of ball pins into hinge bodies (also called “cardini”), maintaining high productivity and precision across batches.
The system uses a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) with proprietary software for flexible configuration. Operators can select pin size, insertion depth, and cycle times, ensuring full control and traceability during production.
The pneumatic actuation ensures smooth and consistent assembly operations. The ball pins are fed automatically, while the hinge components are precisely positioned using dedicated tooling and sensors. This reduces human error and enhances overall quality.
The machine’s structure supports ergonomic loading and unloading, with a cycle time optimized for industrial use. Safety systems, including light curtains and emergency stops, ensure operator protection.
Our machine is fully compatible with Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0 standards. It features real-time monitoring, production data logging, and remote diagnostics. Thanks to network connectivity, the system can be integrated into smart factory environments, supporting predictive maintenance and efficient workflow management.
Moreover, with a human-centric design philosophy from Industry 5.0, the machine balances automation with operator comfort, providing a user-friendly interface and intuitive controls.
This ball pins for hinges assembly machine is part of oPm’s complete range of metal hardware automation systems. Built in compliance with CE regulations, it’s ideal for companies seeking innovation, reliability, and performance.
