Collaborative Robot Case: L'ORÉAL INDIA Automation of Transport Processes
The reason why L'Oréal's cosmetics improved the overall equipment efficiency of its Indian factory by 5%.
L'Oréal, one of the world's largest cosmetics brands, was facing a problem at its Pune factory in India. The manual handling of the final stage of the manufacturing process was posing serious ergonomic risks to the workers on site. In response, the company introduced UR robots to automate the palletizing process. This led to increased efficiency and achieved a 0% ergonomic risk. The Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) improved by 5%. ■ Challenge: In the final process of stacking boxes onto pallets, one worker was required to lift a total of 8,500 kg during an 8-hour shift, with an ergonomic risk assessment at level 4 (level 5 being the maximum). ■ After implementation: It became possible to load two pallets simultaneously without stopping the production line, reducing the working time per shift by 30 minutes. The time required for pallet replacement was also shortened, resulting in a 5% improvement in OEE at the Pune factory.
