01 Background
Due to the problem of environmental pollution and the importance of modern people to their own health and safety, European food-grade detergent giants have begun to expand the business of small household appliances in recent years, and continue to expand the scale of production and manufacturing, including air purifiers, water purifiers and kitchen processors. Based on consistently strict quality control requirements, the customer was extremely concerned about production efficiency and product consistency, not only requiring that cycle time bottlenecks and stoppages be minimized during the production process. In addition, due to the high volume of orders, the customer was particularly concerned about system efficiency – shorter changeover times during product changeovers and line adjustments, as well as fewer waiting times for workers and equipment.
The customer had several production lines for screw tightening on the surface of the casing, which had previously been done manually. Because this type of work requires holding the tightening gun for a long time and completing the single locking action of the tiny screw, the labor burden of the workers is heavy, and the work content is monotonous and boring. In addition, errors and omissions and non-standard parts are inevitable in manual operation, so the customer has been considering the introduction of robot solutions.
02 pain points
The characteristics of large batch size, many varieties and repetitive work processes are suitable for the introduction of robots to improve efficiency. However, traditional industrial robots and special machines are not competent, mainly because of two aspects: first, the position that needs to be tightened by screws is not on the same plane, so the traditional solution can only solve the single-side screw locking, and cannot meet the customer's rhythm requirements to tighten the screws located on the front and side. Second, the production line varieties are frequently switched, so a more flexible production method is needed to meet the production requirements of products of different sizes and specifications, while once the traditional industrial robot is preset to act, the flexibility is very low when changing the action, and the reprogramming is time-consuming and laborious. As a result, the customer turned to cobots, determined that they could meet the requirements after trying them for a while, and sought a more competitively priced local brand to meet their ROI (return on investment) needs.
03 Solution
In the end, the ELITE EC66 collaborative robot won the favor of customers. With a load of 6kg, a working radius of 914mm, and a repeatability of ±0.03mm, the EC66 robotic arm with a screw gun draws the screws from the screw arranger and completes the tightening action of 4 M4 screws on the front and side of the product with a torque of 1.2Nm, and completes the assembly of 8 products in one minute.
The ELITE EC66 cobot has obtained ISO 10218 safety certification and can share the working area with people without the need for safety fences, which is very convenient for retrofitting existing production lines without the need to readjust the production line layout. In addition, the compact structure design of the cobot usually only occupies 1-1.5 stations and supports installation at any angle, which further reduces the difficulty of robot introduction.
In addition, the robot's open interface and interactive programming of the teach pendant make deployment and debugging faster. From deployment to live testing, it took only 2 days. Homegrown robots can also meet European production standards.
