Semi‑Automatic MCB Arc Chute Assembly Machine
This assembly machine for arc chutes of miniature circuit breakers will help you increase your production rates of a component that plays a critical role in quickly extinguishing the electrical arcs produced during an electrical fault. At this machine, the components are loaded by hand and assembled together automatically via high-precision automated assembly processes (stacking, alignment, and press). The assembly process is controlled by a PLC. The correct placement of the component parts and machine safety is monitored via the use of optical sensors and other methods throughout the entire assembly process.
The machine provides a very good balance between low cost of investment and significantly higher levels of assembly throughput as well as consistent product quality. This makes it a flexible and reliable solution for Mid to large volume production of various MCB models. It is the perfect next step from a manual line without the expense of total automation. Output varies according to the number of plates that fit in the arc chute, but optimised cycle times will be tailored to suit your specific MCB model.

What is an MCB Arc Chute Semi‑Automatic Assembly Machine?
The MCB Arc Chute Assembly Machine is the hub for the semi-automated assembly of (10 to 20) stamped metal plates into a complete arc chute assembly which is utilized to extinguish the electrical arc when an MCB trips. The assembled arc chute has two major components, the base and the plates, both of which will be manually loaded onto the machine’s loading fixture or magazine by the operator. The machine will stack, align and press the plates after they are loaded into the fixture/magazine. Sensors will confirm the number of plates and their alignment after they are correctly stacked, before the pneumatic or servo press will apply controlled force to the assembled plates. The results are an increased capital investment, compared to fully automated assembly lines, while significantly improving the consistency and throughput compared to manual assembly. The tooling is a custom solution, therefore the tooling will be model specific to your arc chute plate design and MCB model series, which are non-standard designs.
Ideal step‑up from manual lines without the cost of full automation.
Compatible with various MCB arc chute models and plate configurations via quick‑change tooling.
Omron PLC with sensor‑based verification ensures correct plate count and alignment.
Festo/SMC pneumatic cylinders, MCGS HMI, and precision tooling.

Core Customer Benefits – What This Machine Solves
Benefit 1: Cuts assembly time by 50‑70%
The manual assembly process for arc chutes requires an average of 30-60 seconds (stacking 10-20 plates together and pressing them). The equipment dramatically reduces this cycle time to 10-20 seconds resulting in significantly increased output, without adding to the headcount. A typical ROI is between 6-9 months.
Benefit 2: Eliminates inconsistent plate alignment
Misaligned plates due to manual stacking usually lead to poor arc extinguishing performance and field failures. Precision tooling and automatic sensors on the machine will guarantee that the plates are perfectly aligned every time they stack, which will greatly reduce scrap and rework.
Benefit 3: Low‑cost entry into automation
This semi-automatic machine presents a more economical solution to grow from manual production than completely automated production equipment which need significant capital investment. With one operator running multiple modules, the amount of money spent for your operation will be lower and the earnings will be higher.
Benefit 4: Quick changeover for multiple MCB models
You can change out different arc chute styles (the number of plates, shapes, stack height) in less than 20 minutes with pre-centered tooling and PLC recipe parameters. There is typically no expensive tooling change needed for many model families.
Customer Success – How One MCB Manufacturer Increased Output by 80%
After using a semi-automatic machine to manufacture automatic arc chutes with three employees (1,200 per day), defects due to plate misalignment were reduced from three percent of field failures to just zero because the plate assembly was now accurate enough to eliminate any defects that caused arc chutes to malfunction or otherwise fail.
The machine paid for itself in 8 months, after which it became the baseline for their arc chute assembly standard.

よくある質問
Number of plates per arc chute dictates output. Standard arc chute of 13 plates will have a cycle time of 10-15 seconds per unit. This equates to 240-360 units per hour based on operator production rate.
The operator will manually load plates into a magazine or fixture with respect to each arc chute. At the same time, the machine will automatically stack, align and press each plate together. This type of design is less costly and virtually eliminates many of the human errors associated with manual handling of the arc chutes.
This machine employs both plate-counting sensors (inductive or optical) and stack height verification to identify when there is a missing or an additional plate. In these cases, it will stop and inform the operator that an assembly has been made incorrectly and is therefore defective.
The machine uses quickly interchangeable tooling (tooling magazine, stacking fixture, press tool) to change from one type of arc chute to another in less than 20 minutes. The PLC parameters which are recipe based also adjust the pressing force and stacking sequence.
The machine will not function when operator’s hands are inside its working area during the automatic cycle. It uses two hand start buttons, safety light curtains and an emergency stop.
