CNC Robot
Robot expands production capacity
Every night a robot from Universal Robots works diligently and completely unmanned next to a milling centre at the Thiele tools company. In this way Thiele has now manufactured many more small series without additional personnel or having to buy more machinery.
The global financial crisis meant several challenges for Thiele and most other small and medium sized companies. In order to increase productivity, the company was on the lookout for new business areas and is therefore now also investing in milling small series. The economic situation meant that Thiele was unable to employ additional employees or buy new machinery.
Automation turned out to be the solution: when manual single production finishes in the day shift, the robot is placed next to a milling centre and runs an unmanned production of small series at night. It relieves employees from monotonous handling work so that they can carry out far more challenging tasks instead.
No need for a safety shield. The robot also carries out quality assurance using an image processing system developed by the distributor. Faude and integrated into the Universal Robots solution.
There was no need for Thiele to make design changes in order to implement the automation solution: Universal Robots has had its industrial robot certified so that it can work right next to humans without an additional safety shield.
The robot solution was developed and integrated in just four weeks. Since then the system has run without problems.
New perspective on industrial robots Universal Robots is also solving a classic dilemma for smaller companies.
The robot opens both doors, puts in the raw material, tightens the machine’s vice, removes it again after milling and puts it to one side.
The robot also carries out quality assurance using an image processing system which Faude have developed themselves and integrated in the Universal Robots solution.
ABOUT Thiele: Thiele is a classic small tools manufacturer that develops individual solutions for designing processing, testing, measuring and leakage testing equipment and manufactures parts in CNC controlled machining centres. The company has around 10 employees and primarily manufactures individual parts and small production series for industry. Its customers are mainly companies within the automobile industry, aeronautics and space technology and plastic production.
Safe cooperationOur robots meets European ISO standard 10218 on safety requirements for industrial robots.The robots have an integrated safety function, which means that in most cases they can be installed in production without any screening at all.This naturally depends on installation and gripping tools, and the company must therefore always carry out a risk assessment of the entire application.
