[Case Study] Eliminate Waiting Time During Product Processing! Stock Conveyor

Gently catch the processed round bars! Stock them without damaging the products and take them out together!

◆Consultation Details◆ From an automotive parts manufacturing company: "The products (round bars) coming out of the processing machine are being transported by people one by one to the next process." "While it's unavoidable for people to transport them (due to equipment limitations), we want to improve the need to take out the processed products every time they are discharged from the machine (at 6-minute intervals)." "If we could stock a lot of finished products, we could eliminate the hassle of going to pick them up each time and use that time for other tasks..." ◆Our Proposal & Achievements◆ ➀ Products supplied by the robot are received at a station (receiving platform) using vertical cylinders. *The receiving platform uses off-the-shelf products, achieving cost reduction. ➁ Transported to the stock area via conveyor. ➂ Stocking in a neatly aligned state, one by one, has been realized. ◆Effects◆ We can now stock 30 pieces at once, allowing us to perform other tasks while processing! The time saved is 6 minutes × 30 pieces = 180 minutes, and there is no longer a need to wait for completion in front of the processing machine, which has led to great satisfaction! ◎
