RobotWorx Pre-engineered Workcell Built for Ammo-Box Welding
Project Summary:
Metal fabricating company required a custom-built workcell with a manual turntable for military arc welding application. RobotWorx created a RW900 workcell which in turn improved safety, weld quality, throughput, and cycle time.
Application Goals:
Welding both aluminum and steel components for ammo-style boxes measuring 3'L x 12"W x 8"D.
Project Summary:
RobotWorx integrates reconditioned robot system for multi-welding automotive components. Workcell speeds process, increases safety, and improves weld quality.
Application Goals:
Increase cycle times and throughput with Ferris wheel positioner, efficient welding, and less downtime.
Perform multiple unique welds: 22 B side/ 20 A side.
Maintain consistent weld quality - minimizing wasted time, cost, and materials.
Feasibility Study - Integrating Multiple Robot Applications
The objective of the proposed project was to integrate a robotic system with the ability to dispense raw material and remove a finished shower base from a molding machine.
Project Focus Points
The first step was ensuring application feasibility. The vacuum system and dispensing method tests were conducted separately.
The second step was testing a prototype set of tooling designed for the two applications.
Robot Palletizing Feasibility Study
The objective of the feasibility study was to integrate a robotic system with the ability to palletize different sized bags onto an outgoing skid with a slip-sheet placed between each palletized layer for a multinational pharmaceutical company.
Phase 1: Project Focus Points
Tested end of arm tooling (EOAT) for consistent bag pick-up.
Tested EOAT for consistent slip-sheet placement.
Robotic Deburring Feasibility Study
The objective of the proposed project was to integrate a robotic system to deburr metal flash from the exterior of various sizes of hardened steel drill shanks for an Ohioan drilling and cutting solutions company.
Project Focus Points
Testing the robotic arm's reach envelope to ensure complete shank surface and drill bit slot area coverage.
Testing the end of arm tooling (EOAT) for the deburring application.
Robot Feasibility - Sanding Steel Safes
The objective of this feasibility study was to integrate a robotic system to sand the exteriors of welded steel safes of different sizes.
Four Project Phases:
Testing the robotic arm's reach envelope to ensure surface area sanding coverage.
Testing end of arm tooling (EOAT) for sanding application.
Building the proven EOAT and integrating production peripherals for final simulation before shipment.
Robot Feasibility Study - The Automotive Industry
The objective was integrating a robotic system with the ability to open and close car and other automobile doors repeatedly at controlled acceleration rates during manufacturing.
Project Focus Points
Tested robot reach in respect to opening and closing both the front and back doors of the car on the side presented to the robot.
Case Study - International Robot Sales
Fanalca S.A. is a motorcycle assembly and manufacturing company for Honda located in Cali, Columbia. Thanks to RobotWorx, a robotics integrator based in Ohio, they were able to install their first welding robot. Fast service, low cost robots, and a strong Internet presence brought this international company to RobotWorx' door.
The Robot Solution:
Fanalca needed a robot to perform MIG welds on motorcycle fuel tanks.
