…of a tier-one automotive supplier. Solution : Epson T-Series SCARA All-in-One robots provided an easy-to-integrate and space-saving automation solution that helped the customer reduce cycle time and cost. All with an ROI of less than one year. One station would perform the pneumatic pressing of all four compression limiters. Two stations would ultrasonically weld the 3M Thinsulate. And, the final station would automatically unload components, while separating them to “good part” and “bad part” chutes. The discussion regarding possible solutions ultimately came down to one factor – robots had to be part of the equation. Based on a demo presented…

…play in these applications include the six-axis robot arm, SCARA, and delta robots. It’s important to understand how each robot type fits into the automation systems of these industrial sectors. For example, a six-axis robot offers excellent overall range of motion and capability. Many moves required in automation are not in a straight line, so a six-axis robot provides a great deal of capability. Furthermore, the size ranges of six-axis robots are expansive, which allows users to leverage this type of robot for a variety of processes. A six-axis robot is a good fit for dispensing glue, potting, and liquid…
