Industrial Robotics
Industrial robotic systems are machines designed to complete repetitive actions in industrial settings. These robotics can be multi-axis robotic arms, automated guided vehicles, automated cells, or conveyance. Modern advancements have made these systems flexible and scalable. As demand grows, peak seasons change, or products change, you can easily reprogram your robotic systems. Because of this scalability, flexibility, and accuracy, automation integration is growing in low- to high-volume production lines worldwide. Typical industrial robot applications include:
WHAT ARE ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION INTEGRATION?
Robotics integration uses robotic systems in strategic areas to perform automated tasks. Robotics system integrators like JR Automation analyze your manufacturing, material handling, shipping, or inspection lines; determine which areas could be improved; and install the automation technology in those areas. There are typically two main applications for robotics integration — industrial robotics and collaborative robotics.
COLLABORATIVE ROBOTICS
Collaborative robotics integration involves installing robots and other automation technology alongside employees to complete tasks. Collaborative robots — also known as cobots — can be challenging applications. Employees need different considerations for safety and ergonomics when near robotic arms to avoid accidents or injuries. Thus, companies must work with experienced integrators for planning and consultation before integrating collaborative robotics.
PICK AND PLACE
Pick and place solutions are perfect for simple, repetitive part transfer and material handling tasks. Advanced applications like sorting, multi-process transfers, and part recognition require more complex solutions. JR Automation can design the perfect part-handling solution to fit your unique needs.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF ROBOTICS INTEGRATION?
The benefits of robotics integration are multifold. Companies who introduce robotics into their production lines, material handling processes, or other vital areas can improve accuracy, repeatability, and consistency, and change speed-to-market. Robotics integrators like Custom Automations Automation work with the automotive industry, medical and life sciences, ecommerce, and other industries to save on labor costs, decrease production costs, and improve cycle times and quality.
