Automated Assembly SPM

3× throughput increase

Automated Assembly SPM - image 1

Overview

A special purpose machine that feeds, orients, presses and tests a small sub-assembly in a single station.

The challenge

Manual assembly limited output to a few hundred units a shift with inconsistent press force.

Our solution

PLC-controlled servo press with vision verification, vibratory feeding and a reject chute, built as a turnkey machine.

Results

  • 3x throughput versus the manual line
  • Press force logged for every unit
  • Changeover in under 10 minutes
