01 Background
The plastic molding plant in Taipei has a large number of orders for floor pads, and one of the processes is to tighten the screws for the supporting feet under the footpads. Workers have been doing this by hand, removing screws from the tray and tightening them onto threaded metal rods, which is slow due to manual work, and operations departments often complain that they can't finish much in a day. Due to the declining birthrate, Taiwan's recruitment and labor shortage often plague factories, especially when there are seasonal orders, and the staff is even more stretched, and factories have to spend extra time and energy to hire temporary workers to help.
02 pain points
As a result, production and engineering departments are thinking about whether robots can be used to complete such mechanized repetitive tasks and thus increase productivity. So after comparing the different types of robots on the market, they considered using a 6-joint robotic arm for automation. The next question is that the production department believes that the traditional small six-axis robot has a very mature application, and it is undoubtedly suitable to choose this kind of product, compared with the higher price of the collaborative robot, after all, it is the same job completed.
The engineering department is more thoughtful, and the current factory needs to introduce the robot arm without professional integrators, in addition to seasonal orders and customized products also put the flexibility of the application to the test. Therefore, they believe that a flexible, easy-to-use collaborative robotic arm is a better choice in the long run. Finally, under the recommendation of the integrator, the factory decided to try to introduce a collaborative robot first, after all, many 3C electronics factories in Taiwan have begun to use this lightweight production tool on a large scale.
03 Solution
In this project, the collaborative robot mainly completes the following actions: picking up the nut from the whole material mechanism, accurately finding the support foot that needs to be screwed on the material tray, and then completing the nut tightening action, and repeating the same process for the next material part. With the use of cobots, the cycle time has been significantly accelerated, the factory can operate 24 hours a day, and production has doubled. However, it is very reassuring to know that the programming of the robot is very simple, and the robot can be easily set up and planned by visual instructions and drag-and-drop teaching. It's easy to validate your application in the early stages and redeploy it later based on process changes. "The engineering department was right to choose cobots!" Now even the operation degree is very satisfied with this attempt.
