A manufacturer of custom-molded metal parts was seeking a robotic manufacturing cell that would improve productivity and improve operator safety. The manufacturer turned to Machine Concepts to engineer, build, program and install a custom solution.
With safety of paramount consideration, Machine Concepts engineered and built a dual robotic manufacturing cell that is completely enclosed with Lexan guarding and locking safety-rated handles, preventing any operator intervention during operation.
For complete autonomous operation, parts are shuttled in and out of the production cell via entry and exit conveyors.
The cell also features areas for tool storage, allowing for quick changes to the robot end-of-arm tooling and part locating fixtures
With two Fanuc Robots working in unison, the manufacturing cell can perform manufacturing operations with cycle times under 10 seconds per part.
