Angle plates are one of the connecting elements in machine construction. An angle connection is a simple and very stable screw or welded connection.

Aside from a large selection of fastenings, materials and surface treatments, angle plates at MISUMI can also be produced according to customer requirements. You can configure the parameters and adapt them to your application:

Angle plates can also be used in body-in-white production due to their ease of use and stability. The selectable hole distance and tailored hole configuration enables them to be adapted flexibly to the structure.

Angle plates/rib angles (angle brackets) combined with aluminum extrusions and adjuster pads can form a stand, e.g. for a buffer storage station. The screw connection that is easy to loosen allows for tolerance compensation that balances out the unevenness in the floor and ensure the station is positioned securely.

The components, in this case a B-pillar plate, are positioned in the component receptacles provided with the buffer drawer in an open state. The components are positioned precisely and fixed using guide brackets (NAAMS) and contour blocks/NC blocks (NAAMS). The reliable and interference-free manner of receiving the components protects them from being deformed and damaged. Sensors record the load status and the correct position of the components. The manual closing of the drawer is intercepted by dampers in order to prevent the components from shifting. A pneumatic tensioner locks the drawer in a closed state during the removal process until the sensor reports the emptying of the station. Only then does the pneumatic tensioner unlock. The drawer can then be opened again and the process can be started from scratch. Angle plates ensure the buffer drawer is positioned securely.
