Motoman's SV3J Improve Efficiency
The company has installed robots by
Motoman to help with many applications including
dispensing. The use of sight technology increases dependability and the standards of the product. The robots use include SV3J,
UP6 and
UP20.
- TASUS Corp. manufacturers injection-molded plastic parts for a variety of automotive components. It also provides a range of assembly operations, including ulttrasonic welding, leak testing and the attachment of gaskets, brackets and other hardware.
- Motoman robots are critical for maintaining a high level of producivity at the plant. In addition to four-axis gantry robots, TASUS now has several workcells that use six-axis robots to perform tasks such as dispensing, assembly, ultrasonic welding, and degating.
- If the vision system detects insufficient primer on the part, the six-axis robots picks up a new bottle of primer from a nearby slide mechanismusing a gripper with angular jaws. The robot can change bottles at any time in the process without shutting down the molding press.
- TASUS uses SV3X, UP6 and UP20 six-axis robots to assemble several different power steering reservoirs for American and Japanese automotive customers.
- The new line has two UP20 and three UP6 robots. Ultrasonic and vibration welding, leak testing, assembly and laser serialization are all performed with the help of these robots.
