Automatic Assembly Solution
Case1. Reduces manual labor required by 50%
Overview
Process automation
Top side: insetion ⇒ Bottom side: screw tightening
Using robots replaces 2 manual processes
Top side: insetion –> Bottom side: screw tightening
After the introduction of automation improvement
Benefits
- Simpler process
・Automation and labor savings - Easy operation
・Faster setup
・Less operator trainning
Case2. Reduction of pick and place machines needed
Overview
Aging insertion machines ⇒ Replace with flexible insertion platforms
Using dedicated AI machines. Multiple types needed (radial, axial)
Flexible insertion machine. Wide range supported on 1 machine.
Auto Insertion machine :
External setup is not possible
General-purpose insertion machine:
Bucket-type parts can be set up externally
AI-dedicated facility : Large facility-Split production not possible
General-purpose inserter: Split-production by external setup
Benefits
- Strengths of General Purpose Insertion Machines
・Supports a wide varity of component types in one platform - Single model covers a wide range of production requirements
・Use of off-line feeder setup: Significantly reduces setup time
・Reduced floor space due to fewer total machines
Case3. Full automation reduces new product introduction time
Overview
JM Series + MR-01 can fully automate lines that currently have a mix of automation and manual assembly
Manual processes required in-line with automatic machines
MR-01 replaces manual assembly
Completely manual work
Production lines using a common platform capable of a variety of assembly work.
Dedicated insertion machines cannot support many components
Standard feeders and tooling supports a variety of parts
All machines required for every job, regardless of part types
Benefits
- Full process automation
・Shortens setup time and reduces manpower - Use of flexible assembly machines
・Maximizes use of assets (common feeders and nozzles)
・Reduces capital investment
