Packing and loading\/unloading pallets is one of the most stressful and musculoskeletal applications for workers in the supply chain. Lifting heavy objects and bending over to lift or wrap are not only ergonomic (unconvenient to the body) movements that pose a risk of injury, but are also repetitive, which can lead to human error when concentration is reduced. The combination of these factors makes the robotic arm of the collaborative robot the ideal partner for packing & picking processes.<\/p>\n

With robotics technology delivering quick ROI, we’re getting a lot of interest from customers looking to tackle production issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Faced with a spike in demand for products such as\u00a0medical components\u00a0and PPE, some customers have found that our cobot palletizing and palletizing technology is a means effective way to increase productivity.<\/p>\n

Similarly, restrictions caused by COVID-19 are exacerbating pre-existing labor challenges in manufacturing and other industries. Never before has finding a source of labor been so difficult; the problem of workers absent due to illness is a real risk; and travel restrictions coupled with social distancing practices may make adding workers unfeasible in the short term. In these situations,\u00a0autonomous robots\u00a0can solve problems, replenish labor shortages, and ensure uninterrupted business operations, despite general operating conditions and unfavorable workforce situations. profit.<\/p>\n

COBOT CREATES NEW LABOR DEMAND:<\/h2>\n

In some situations, deploying cobots to do the packing and palletizing and unloading can even lead to hiring new workers thanks to increased production levels. This happened with RNB Cosm\u00e9ticos in Spain. This company has integrated 6 \u00a0Ur10 robot arms\u00a0 of Universal Robots\u00a0 into its wrapping and packaging workshop to perform the loading\/unloading of pallets at the end of the line. After the\u00a0automation robot integrated production line\u00a0was established, RNB Cosm\u00e9ticos was able to increase production quickly and efficiently.<\/p>\n

Working with humans in 6-pack-per-minute production cycles and adapting to more than 350 different items, the system is so efficient that the company has hired new workers to handle the increased production leap. At the same time, existing workers have been released from tasks that are not ergonomically appropriate to focus on improving their professional skills. Instead of packing and loading and unloading goods, workers are now responsible for managing the cobot’s operations. \u201cWe do not hire experts to handle high-tech robots. We are turning our employees into experts by enhancing their expertise,\u201d shared Aurelio Tornero, General Industry Manager of RNB Cosm\u00e9ticos.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

COBOT HANDLING L’OR\u00c9AL .’s Heavy Lifting Problem:<\/h2>\n

At L’Or\u00e9al India’s Pune plant, operations\u00a0at the\u00a0packagingline\u00a0 are done manually, with operators having to lift approximately 8,500 kg of product in each 8-hour shift. L’Or\u00e9al India recognized this as too great a risk for the operators and deployed two UR10 robotic arms to take over the job. Cobot has helped\u00a0the company to completely eliminate human labor in the\u00a0stage\u00a0packing and loading\/unloading of pallets, and at the same time, improving overall equipment efficiency in the factory by 5% by saving time on changing pallet replacement. \u201cThe collaborative robot has completely eliminated the risk of ergonomics. They are user-friendly, maintenance-free, and extremely efficient. We are really satisfied using Universal Robots cobots,\u201d shared Ranjit Ekda.<\/p>\n

NIPPON ZETTOC MIX THE BEST CHARACTERISTICS OF HUMANS AND ROBOTS INTO THE PRODUCTION LINE:<\/h2>\n

In Japan, the leading\u00a0original parts manufacturer (OEM)\u00a0for toothpaste, NIPPON ZETTOC, adopted\u00a0cobot UR5\u00a0to solve the problem of labor shortage on their packaging and canning lines. Mr. Junichi Kano, Manager of Manufacturing Technology Department of NIPPON, said, \u201cHuman labor has the advantage of being flexible, but of course there are negative points such as they can suddenly quit their job and\u00a0lack of a number\u00a0skills. So our goal is to create a production line that combines the best features of humans and robots.\u201d The company’s inner box packaging line that used to require two people now requires just one person and four UR5 cobots, allowing for continuous production when workers take breaks. The UR5 robotic arm also helps speed up production, increasing the number of products packed per hour by 30%. The outer box packing line is now fully automated by the UR5, while workers spend their time on more value-added tasks such as material feeding and process inspection.<\/p>\n

FAVORITE PALLET UP\/DOWN LOADING GUIDE:<\/h3>\n

Ease of use is a trait that \u00a0Universal Robots\u00a0 strives to ensure in all its solutions. To simplify programming for pallet loading\/unloading tasks, we’ve included a special picking wizard in Polyscope OS. The wizard allows the user to simply specify where the corners of the box are and add dimensions, while the\u00a0robot arm\u00a0 will figure out where to put the parts\u00a0in the right place.<\/p>\n

Specialized aerospace components manufacturer Tool Gauge used our loading and unloading wizard to reduce labor costs, while freeing workers from repetitive and time-consuming tasks at the factory in Seattle, USA. Initially, an easily damaged copper machined part was manufactured by a skilled CNC machinist. This person will pull the parts out of the CNC chute, clean, rinse, dry, and box. Now, a UR3 cobot will take the parts out, put them in a clean sink, put them in front of the dryer, and then drop each part into individual cardboard boxes in a grid pattern.<\/p>\n

Steve Ouzsts, manufacturing engineer at Tool Gauge, explains, \u201cThe loading and unloading wizard is really cool, it\u2019s both\u00a0effective and easy to do.\u201d Tool Gauge’s general manager, Jim Lee, estimates that the company saved $9,000\u00a0USD\u00a0in labor costs on the first order. \u201cWe can no longer waste the talent of our machinists, but can let them focus on higher value projects like installing and programming CNC machines,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
