Start with the brief
Information that improves the first technical response.
- Task
What is picked, processed, inspected or moved, and what constitutes a successful cycle? - Product or part
Weight, dimensions, surface, variation, fragility, contamination and presentation. - Performance
Cycle time, utilisation, accuracy, uptime and changeover expectations. - Operating context
People, access, upstream equipment, downstream equipment, floor space, environment and safety constraints.
Delivery pathway
From requirement to handover.
1
Task study
Observe or model the current operation and define the measurable reason for automation.
2
Cell concept
Select robot class, tooling, part flow, controls, safety concept and recovery method.
3
Engineering and proving
Develop, build, program and verify the agreed cell functions and interfaces.
4
Commissioning and handover
Install, validate, train operators and transfer practical maintenance information.
Connected group delivery
The robot is only one component of a successful cell.
Sortation can present parts; Machine Guarding can develop the safeguarding package; Lancing can lead packaging machinery interfaces. The automation company retains ownership of the cell task and controls.
