Recent leaps in technology have led to a reduction in the cost of robots with a simultaneous increase in their positioning accuracy. This has opened up a well of opportunity for manufacturing concerns with varied pick and place operations as well as assembly requirements.
Traditionally, manufacturers purchased specific machines to assemble or transfer specific products. By integrating the latest robot and vision technologies, Engineria is able to cost effectively produce flexible automatic assembly and handling cells.
The advantage of these is that they can be programmed to handle different products throughout their lifetime. This delays obsolescence, increases capacity utilisation and enables the manufacturer to switch a machine operation from one batch to the other, maximizing the use of the investment.
