HRXⅢ-iRedesigned Body with Improved Speed and Payload
The ideally designed HRXⅢ series
contributes to improve the productivity in your factorywith faster take-out time and wider range of the maximum payload.

●Ideally Designed Structure for Faster Take-out Time(up to 20%)●

●The durability has been improved for 69% by analyzing its frame
structure and re-evaluating the balance of its center gravity. The rangeof vibration and the convergence time is reduced.
The balance and driving speciﬁcation of the arm has been re-evaluatedto suppress its twisting and increased its moving speed.

●Improved maximum payload performance

PAT. DUS system* equipped
What is the *DUS system ?

Thciker shaft on thekick unit: Enforcing thestability of therotational shaft andreducing the vibration

This system employs double
cushioning on the main arm (shockabsorber + pneumatic cushioning) toreduce the stress and increase thedurability on the shock absorber byadjusting the timer of the pneumaticcushioning according to the length ofthe vertical stroke.

Wider diameter: Changing thecylinder bore diameter from φ
25 to φ32 reduces the take-out
time up to 20% (comparisonwith our previous model)

Newly designed body: The controller unit(controller and air valves) are built into
the solid main body and the components
are well-laid out to be insulated from theinﬂuence of surroundings.

Instant destaticizing without blowing the air!
Weakness of a conventional ionizer
Easy to reach: The "single-action"
feature with the easy-to-reachratchet position, provides smoothand speedy mold change-over.

Ball bushing on the side
pipe slide: Combining thesliding unit and thecylinder terminal increases
the durability and reduces
vibration.

A n io nize r disc h a rges th e io n fro m th e ele ctro d e . T h edischarged ion adheres to the object to neutralize the staticelectricity. However, it takes time for ion to travel, an ionizer
cannot remove the static electricity from fast-passing objects.

Fixing with set screws:
employing the set screws
makes it easy to lock thewrist rotation unit when it
is not in use.
The wirings are tucked into

unnecessary contact or

Concept DiagramBirth of QUICK GATE
We have discovered that we could remove the staticelectricit y from a n o bject if we generated the coro na
discharge by using the energy of the static electricity on theobject. This newly developed QUICK GATE uses thespecial wires for the electrode and applies high voltage onthe electrode. Because the diﬀerence of electrical potential islarge, QUICK GATE can eﬃciently concentrate the electricalline of force and steadily create the corona discharge.

GRAN-CUTTER

Never-Before-Seen Swing Press Cut System!
The SPC series Gran-Cutter can cut soft-typeresin sprues and runners, which used to be non-recyclable.
■Gran-Cutter

CatalogVideo"Not a crusher, but a Gran-Cutter" HARMO's Gran-Cutter is a revolutionary re-pelletingmachine to cut the fed runners and sprues into granules as small as virgin materials
by using our unique swing press cutting system patented in nine countries.
Gran-Cutter can revive the materials which used to be thrown away.

Press Stationary Cutter[Fig.3]Gran-Cutter has the press cutters on the cam-driven swinging shaft. The
stationary cutters are mounted on the circumference of the swinging shaft sothat the press cutters mesh with the rotating cutters (Fig.3).
The male and female blades on the stationary and rotating cutters mesh
together, these blades cut the fed sprues / runners. These blades push out thecut pieces and open again to cut the next fed materials (picture-2).
This unique granulating mechanism eliminates the cause of producing powder
during the cutting process and also minizes the generated heat and staticelectricity.

your plastic material cost.

Comparing with a crusher●Evenly-sized granules

The patented "Swing-Press Cutting System" can regrind runners and sprues
into evenly-sized granules.

Before cutting

While cutting

After cut⑧Door

The rotating cutter ① and the rotating cut stationary cutter ② roughly cut thefed sprues and runners.
Because the rotating shaft ③ and the grooved cam [Fig.7] are directly
connected to the motor, the actions of the grooved cam make the press cutter
shaft ④ and the press cutter ⑤ start to swing with the rotation of the motor.
The roughly cut sprues and runners are cut by the press cut stationary cutters⑥ press. The cut sprues and runners falls down through ⑦. The equipped doors⑧ and ⑨ open widely as shown in the [Pic.1] to ease the periodical cleaning.

●Very little dust

Since the cut sprues and runners does not pass through the blades again,clean cut with a single swing action can minimize dust, static electricity, andheat generation.

⑦Cut Materials[Fig.6][Fig.7] Grooved Cam●Very few miscuts

Gran-Cutter has the mechanism to cut the sprues and the runners into thecertain size (as small as the virgin pellets) and is free from mis-cut (no screen).

Press Cutter●Very quiet

Press Stationary Cutter

Gran-Cutter does not make unnecessary movements, the operation is very quite.

●Easy to clean

The regrind materials do not stick to the inner wall of the machine, because
static electricity is kept minimum. The doors can open widely downward toprovide easy access of the inside and reduce the cleaning time (5 to 7 minutes).
