Lorem ipsum
Machines serve multiple functions, such as assembling pressure gauges, sensors, and Tier 1 automotive components (mirrors, lights, motors, keys, EDU & ECU parts, hairpin preparation). Common machine processes include:
- Loading/assembling parts
- Welding (including ultrasonic)
- Magnetizing, gluing, pressing
- Labeling, printing, marking
- Inspecting, testing, rejecting
- Packaging and unloading
High precision is required, with some processes needing repeatability within ±0.05mm.
Tray handling is essential for managing parts between machines, including void elimination.
The challenges solved
The most common challenges of such a manufacturer are cost efficiency and high yield. Finding a leaner solution for a complex process is the key to building a viable production line within cost and space constraints, and early simulations are often required to ensure that throughput expectations are met.
Smart Conveyance Goal
The ultimate goal for Smart Conveyance in such applications is leaner automation, provided that it achieves similar or higher throughput and comparable cost to a machine-based standard conveyance system.
Smart Manufacturing Solutions
SuperTrak CONVEYANCE™ brings value by enabling complex motion that can vary at each process step and sometimes become part of the process itself, thereby reducing the need for tooling or stations and increasing the number of process steps possible at a single station or location.
Addressing Core Needs
As this motion is controlled by software, carrying or adding several products on the same line becomes possible with reduced efforts, and traceability of products becomes possible with the identification of each shuttle.
Leaner automation
Larisys Industries successfully implemented an assembly machine based on a 4m SuperTrak VERTICAL10™ system for a wiring harness application. The machine’s size is estimated to be half that of a standard conveyance solution, and the line’s accessibility is vastly improved to facilitate maintenance.
The SuperTrak technology is disruptive because of its speed, precision, compact design and capability to be easily configurable.
