These tools are included in our recently published white paper – Complete Guide to Robotic Machine Tending Projects. Another resource that can be of assistance is the Request for Proposal (RFP) starter template example which provides sections and language to clearly outline project requirements and evaluate vendor responses including:
Wanted to share another useful resource today – the ROI Justification Starter Spreadsheet – which will help you plan business objectives and justify your robotic machine tending projects, particularly if they are for Advanced Robotic Machine Tending involving multiple machines, multiple operations, and multiple parts with
Autonomous Manufacturing is automated, self-governing smart factory operations, a key element of Industry 4.0, which uses robots and robotic production software digitalization along with existing systems to optimize production with minimal human involvement. Achieving autonomous manufacturing requires attaining autonomy in production process control and
Another useful resource is the Robot Machine Tending Project Checklist which provides more than 80 points to consider for a successful robotic machine tending project. In next gen manufacturing environments, advanced machine tending with robotics has become essential for improving throughput, efficiency, precision, and safety.
This time let’s take a look at “why” you would want to use robots – either industrial or collaborative – for machine tending in the first place. Robots enhance CNC machine tending by automating repetitive tasks like loading, unloading, material handling, inspection, and other operations. This improves efficiency, reduces human error, and enables machines to run continuously,
The paper provides comprehensive info on the different aspects of a machine tending initiative using either cobots or industrial robots to achieve greater unattended operation, higher yields, and better margins. Included in the paper are several practical tools that’ll help successfully guide you through your factory’s robotic automation projects.
