CUSTOMER STORY

Increasing productivity via an overhead robotic 7th axis

customer story

Challenge

To meet the demands of an important production contract, which required regrouping three CNC lathes and automating the entire machine-tending and post-machining inspection system with a single UR10 robot.

Solution

A 40-foot overhead 7th-axis range extender, with fully configurable linear speed and acceleration. The 7th-axis was deployed in 3 weeks (vs 3 months) and with 5x times the cost savings compared to a traditional approach. The end-to-end solution brought a 100% increase in productivity, moving from 300 parts to 600.
