Abrégé

A handling apparatus (1) for handling a workpiece, in particular a metal sheet, has a carrying structure (3) and a workpiece-side holding unit (4). An actuator can be used to move the holding unit (4) relative to the carrying structure (3), by way of an actuating movement, into a carrying-structure-remote end position and into at least one carrying-structure-side position. During the actuating movement, the holding unit (4) is held on the carrying structure (3). In the carrying-structure-remote end position of the holding unit (4), a holding-unit-side form-fitting element (20), which is connected to the holding-unit-side guide element (18), and a carrying-structure-side form-fitting element (21), which is connected to the carrying-structure-side guide element (17), establish a form fit with a controllable degree of freedom, on account of which the holding-unit-side guide element (18) has a controllable degree of freedom in the direction of the carrying structure (3) relative to the carrying-structure-side guide element (17). The degree of freedom of the holding-unit-side guide element (18) relative to the carrying-structure-side guide element (17) is controllable in that, in the carrying-structure-remote end position of the holding unit (4), a force generator can generate a contact-pressure force, by means of which the holding-unit-side form-fitting element (20) acts on the carrying-structure-side form-fitting element (21) and the magnitude of which is variably adjustable such that the holding-unit-side guide element (18) is or is not deflectable in the direction of the carrying structure (3) relative to the carrying-structure-side guide element (17) and, consequently, longitudinal movability of the holding element (4) is optionally enabled or blocked.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a method for cutting out sheet-metal parts. A sheet-metal plate rests on a plurality of support bars. Sheet-metal parts which could tilt during the cutting-out process are determined. Account is taken here of which support bars are actually present. A machining programme for cutting out the sheet-metal parts is changed in order to prevent a cutting head from colliding with tilted sheet-metal parts. For this purpose, interference contours due to the potentially tilting sheet-metal parts are calculated for various positions of the support bars in an area around their target position. Information relating to the calculated interference contours for the various assumed support bar positions is aggregated in a predefined manner. The changed machining programme prevents the cutting head from entering the regions of the interference contours of sheet-metal parts that have already been cut free during execution of the programme.

Abrégé

In the context of a mechanical unloading method for unloading a machining product (11) of a workpiece machining operation, in particular of a sheet metal machining operation, from a product support (7), a reference point (19) is defined in an unloading region (3) of a mechanical unloading arrangement, from which reference point an unloading region limit (14) has a limit distance (DL). A reference length (LR), which is at least equally as large as the actual product length, is defined for the machining product (11). A distance (D) existing between the reference point (19) and the front end point, situated towards the unloading region limit (14), of the reference length (LR) of the machining product (11) is compared with the limit distance (DL) from the reference point (19). The unloading method is then continued only under the condition that the distance (D) between the reference point (19) and the front end point of the reference length (LR) of the machining product (11) is less than the limit distance (DL) from the reference point (19). The above unloading method is used in the context of a mechanical production method. A mechanical unloading arrangement and a mechanical production arrangement are designed to carry out the aforementioned methods.
