Nowadays, more and more jobs are being replaced by robots, but this does not mean that robots and humans are in competition. On the contrary, robots are gradually replacing humans in dirty, dangerous, and boring work, freeing humans to do more creative and challenging things.
As far as the metal processing industry is concerned, many work tasks are simple, repetitive, boring, and the harsh workshop environment and worthless work mentality discourage the new generation of workers, and these factors have further evolved into the problem of difficulty in recruiting workers and labor shortages, so the need to introduce robots has become urgent. In fact, whether it is welding, machine tool loading and unloading, or grinding irregular metal parts, collaborative robots are useful in different scenarios in the metal processing industry. While there are differences in processes, materials, and specialized products, the common features of cobots can help factories become more efficient. And the introduction of cobots that are easier to integrate greatly reduces the hidden cost of the layout, which customers are more willing to see and accept.
Precise:
The accuracy of the cobot can reach ±0.03mm, so it can adapt to the positioning accuracy requirements of various machining processes.
Rapid Deployment:
The lightweight cobot is flexible to deploy, does not have high requirements for installation location and requirements, and is suitable for installation methods in various postures, such as formal installation, reverse installation, and side installation, which is simple and easy for the transformation of existing production lines.
Compact:
The working area of the cobot does not need to be equipped with a safety fence, so in addition to the small footprint of the robot itself, the work island where the robot is deployed does not need to separate the safety area, and the working space can be shared between man and machine after passing the system risk assessment.
Easy programming:
The interactive programming of the teach pendant makes it more efficient for engineers to edit the robot's trajectory, thereby shortening the project integration and debugging cycle.
In this issue, we still start from the practical application & solution, let's understand the help and role of Elite collaborative robots in the metal processing industry——
Loading and unloading
The harsh workshop production environment tells us that the use of robots to replace people has become the general trend. Leave repetitive, simple and boring tasks to a cobot that can work 24 hours a day without errors and operate without errors, and it can operate without safety protection devices (after risk assessment) and without operator assistance.

weld
In the welding process, there will be a large amount of smoke and dust emissions, which obviously endangers the health of workers.

Lock-up
Increase quality, consistency, and production speed to expand production capacity. Cobots are quick and easy to deploy into new processes, have the flexibility to automate almost any manual job, and can reuse programming set for recurring jobs, making them ideal for low-volume, high-mix product changeovers.
Elite cobots are used in the field of tapping
Pick & Place
Deploying Elite cobots allows you to experience all the benefits of advanced robotic automation, which is safe, easy to use, flexible, and efficient, with a payback of 8-12 months. Instead of constantly raising salaries to retain people, it is better to choose Elite collaborative robots!

The introduction of collaborative robots can make up for the shortage of workers, and the use of collaborative robots can meet the characteristics of human-machine coexistence, reallocate human resources in the production line, optimize production efficiency, reduce the risk of occupational injuries, and create a more friendly and secure working environment for more workers. Elite will also go deeper into the customer industry and provide application solutions according to customer pain points. I believe that in the future, more and more customers will join forces with us to establish a sustainable network advantage!
