Apparatus and process for locating and securing inserts on a shuttering for making concrete prefabricated building elements

摘要

An apparatus (12) is to be provided for locating and securing inserts (1) on a pallet (11) for making concrete prefabricated building elements, with which apparatus (12) the inserts (1) can be arranged and fixed easily and quickly at predetermined locations. This is achieved by a support (15) movable along an X-coordinate parallel to one side of the pallet (11), a slide (16) movable along the support (15) and as a result along a Y-coordinate perpendicularly to the X-coordinate, a gripper (17) on the slide (16), which gripper (17) can be moved towards or away from the pallet (11) along a Z-coordinate perpendicular to the X- and Y-coordinates, a feed device (19) on the slide (16) for feeding individual inserts (1), and an adhesive-feed device (26) for feeding and completely or partly applying adhesive to the surface (3) of the insert (1) to be put down on the pallet (11), in which arrangement the gripper (17), by movement in the Z-coordinate direction, puts this insert (1) with the surface (3) coated with adhesive onto the pallet (11) while exerting pressure at a location determined by movement along the X- and Y-coordinates. The invention also relates to a process for locating and securing inserts (1) on a pallet (11). IMAGE
