MACHINE TENDING

 
dark-gray.jpg

Automate Loading and Unloading

Machine tending is a critical part of the manufacturing environment. These processes usually are highly demanding and hazardous for your workforce. Machine tending robots will automate the loading and unloading of industrial components and free up employees for more stimulating work. These machine tending robots can seamlessly integrate with existing equipment while providing enhanced precision, reduced damage/downtime and increased safety. Embrace the future of automation with machine tending robots.

 
 
 

How Machine Tending Works

Managing the loading and unloading of parts, whether small or bulky, can be cumbersome for your employees. Machine tending robots eliminate the employee needing to manually handle material and relies on robotic arms or collaborative robots (cobots) to handle the precision lifting. Once the robot receives the signal from the central control system, the robot precisely retrieves material and loads into the machine for processing. Following process completion, the robot is programmed to unload finished product into the designated area. Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) ensures that the system meets your production needs.
