Robotic Forge Press Aluminum Blank Loader
Robotic Forge Press Aluminum Blank Loader
This customer came to Custom Machines Inc. seeking a solution to the problems they themselves had created. They had implemented a mechanical part feeding system to maintain part flow to their forging presses, but the system was slow, and required constant maintenance. They were falling behind production and loosing money fast!
Fortunately, CMI had their solution! Custom Machines replaced the old mechanical system with a simple part escapement and a robot to achieve lightning fast cycle times of 2 seconds. The system was fully integrated into their existing heating and press units, and was such a success that it tripled their output! Now, two additional cells later the customer couldn't be happier!
- 30 day ROI
- 400% reduction is scrap rates
- Increased production rates
- Reduced packaging times
- Faster product changeover times
- Low training expenses because of the robot software's ease of use
This was the first robot installation at this plant. Its success paved the way for more applications.
