Collaborative Robot Case: Toyota Motor Corporation Hokkaido | Workpiece Loading into Processing Machines
Strengthening the "manufacturing capability" through the introduction of robots.
Overview: Toyota Motor Hokkaido, which manufactures parts such as transmissions and axles for Toyota vehicles in Tomakomai City, Hokkaido, has set "strengthening manufacturing capabilities" as a major theme. To improve the equipment in the differential pinion insertion process, they have begun constructing a robot system utilizing UR robots. As a result, they were able to build a robot system in-house that reduces costs and space compared to conventional methods, and improves the process operating rate from 92% to 98%. Challenges: Frequent transport issues, the need for adjustments based on the shape of the workpiece, and the requirement to work without causing scratches. After implementation: The process operating rate improved from 92% to 98%, changes to the workpiece can now be handled with programming adjustments only, and skills have been enhanced due to in-house production. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.
