The integration of cobots into automated welding processes is more than just a technological upgrade; it’s a strategic move that creates value across multiple dimensions. By boosting manufacturing efficiency, reducing costs, and enabling scalable growth, cobot-integrated automated welding solutions are setting new standards in the manufacturing industry. For fabricators looking to stay ahead in a competitive market, adopting these innovative solutions is not just an option—it’s a necessity. #cobot #robotics #automatedwelding #manufacturing #fabrication https://lnkd.in/gZMNe5dw

The Role of Simulations in Product Development 🔄🖥️🖱️ For intralogistics projects, we like to run a simulation to determine the throughput rates of equipment along with the utilisation of the robots and conveyors. This process ensures that we can validate a solution prior to presenting it to a client. Our simulation tools make use of real properties found in robots like KUKA, as you can see in the simulation. We can then simulate based on various factors and determine if we require more or less robots, or if we need different robotic speeds or different delivery rates from conveyors. These simulations can be integrated to a WES to determine functionality prior to installation on-site. #AutomateX #IndustrialAutomation #Intralogistics #Simulation #Automation #Robot #Conveyors Visual Components Follow us!

💬"This technology is very robust, dependable, and precise – and it’s easy to use. The lowest cycle time we have is 26 seconds per part. We can get over a thousand parts in an 8-hour shift. It's very exciting, honestly, pressing the start button and it’s ready to go." - Justin Bald, Manufacturing Engineer, WKW North America, LLC ✔️50% reduction in total manufacturing costs ✔️Fewer operators to load/unload and transport products around the facility ✔️Easier to maintain equipment and controlling tolerances ✔️Achieves micron precision and world-class throughput 🎥Watch the FULL Experience FANUC case study to see more >> https://bit.ly/3V2IZq8 Shape Process Automation #featurefriday #robotics #robots #manufacture #industrialautomation #lasercutting #laser #roboticlaser #automotive #tier1 #manufacturing #mfg #automation #industrial #automate

If you have a few seconds give this case study from Fanuc a read. It's great at showing the capabilities of robotics and automation on a companies processes.

Cobots are not just a cool new gadget; they’re a game-changer for the manufacturing industry. By making processes faster, cheaper, and more adaptable, cobots are helping businesses stay competitive in an increasingly demanding market. Whether you’re a large-scale manufacturer or a small fabricator, integrating cobots into your welding operations could be the key to unlocking new levels of efficiency and success. So, get ready to weld and roll—because the future of manufacturing is here, and it’s cooler than ever. #welding #manufacturing #automation #robotics #cobots https://lnkd.in/gzHcSiQS

Why is my robot joint offset important❓ Joint offset is the difference between the expected position of a robot joint and its actual position. Some amount of joint offset will occur in most industrial robots, including six-axis robots. Factors like tolerances in a robot’s manufacture or wear and tear will cause it. Over time, a robot’s movements will become more inaccurate as its joints drift from their expected positions. The robot will start to perform tasks further from where it needs to. To improve your six-axis robot accuracy, you can calibrate its joint positions with RCS T-90 and RCS Software Suite. In a dedicated test, identify the offset of your robot’s joints. With the results, you can set your robot's position to compensate for the offset. Reducing a robot's joint offset will help to improve the quality and efficiency of its work.

Cobot solution of the week. 🦾 This top-notch collaborative robot implementation comes to you from COBO4YOU in France. It's been installed as part of a timing belt pulley manufacturing process. 👉 What I like about this one is that it's a perfect example of a cobot performing multiple steps in a CNC process. In this case, the Universal Robots cobot is ☑ Picking parts off of an incoming conveyor and loading them into the machine ☑ Unloading them from the machine ☑ Performing a gauge check to determine if the part is good or bad ☑ Moving them through a cleaning station to remove coolant ☑ Placing good parts on an outgoing conveyor, or if bad, moving them to the defective parts area Nice work! 👏 Video source: COBO4YOU on X #collaborativerobots #cobots #manufacturing #automation
