The trimming process, a vital stage in pump manufacturing, involved repetitive loading and unloading tasks—physically exhausting for operators and hazardous due to the proximity to heavy machinery.
Recognizing the urgent need to modernize this labor-intensive process, the company partnered with Ausweg Info Controls — the Authorized Distributor of DOBOT Collaborative Robot (Cobot) in India — to implement a cutting-edge robotic solution. Leveraging our deep expertise in smart automation and robotics, we proposed the MG400 collaborative robot as the ideal fit for their trimming operations.
The core application: Loading and Unloading
Our team deployed the compact and highly efficient MG400 robot to seamlessly pick components from a conveyor and place them into the trimming machine. Designed with high precision and adaptability, the MG400 offered a reliable, space-saving, and fully programmable solution that integrated smoothly with their existing production setup.
Challenges Faced
- The repetitive nature of the job made it physically fatiguing for human operators.
- Safety risks due to human involvement near operating machines.
- Lower production output, which constrained the company’s ability to meet growing demand.
Our Solution
With the MG400 in place, the process was fully automated. The robot was configured to handle continuous, repetitive loading and unloading tasks with unmatched consistency and precision.
Its user-friendly interface allowed the client to adjust operations effortlessly, while its collaborative design ensured safe deployment in close quarters.
