ROBOTIC MATERIAL HANDLING
Robotics are being installed at a rapidly growing rate, and for good reason. There are a number benefits that come from utilizing robotics in your manufacturing processes, including increased produciton output. Parts handling can be incorporated with many manufacturing applications including, but not limited to:
- Abrasive Blasting (Dry or Wet)
- Shot Blasting
- Vibratory Finishing
- Parts Washing
- Polishing and Buffing
- Deburring
- Painting
Material Handling Robot Functions
There are many processes within a manufacturing facility that could be accomplished with the use of a robot and free up workers to other tasks. The goal of incorporating robotics in your material handling is to increase productivity, sustain a level a reliability, and improve employee safety. The following processes can help achieve these goals with the use of a robot:
- Parts Load and Unload
- Palletizing
- Packaging
- Part Transfer
- Assembly
Technology utilized in robots continues to develop at a rapid pace. With the addition of vision systems, job ‘recipes’, and scanning capabilities, your robot can help solve many issues and/or bottlenecks in your manufacturing facilty.
Benefits of Material Handling Robots
Time
Robots not only work quickly, but can run multiple shifts without slowing down production.
Consistency
Consistency within the manufacturing process ensures quality and speed throughout a facility.
Employee Safety
Removing workers from a dangerous process will reduce the risk of injury in a facility.
Labor Management
When a robot takes over parts handling, this frees up employees to other tasks, including maintenance.
