Feasibility study
The first step is to put our expertise at your service to help you clarify your needs and determine the robot or robots that are right for you.
Our industrial robotics engineering and design department carries out numerous simulations and pre-studies to offer you the robots best suited to your objectives.
The feasibility study phase involves a number of stages:
- 3D modelling
- Simulation of trajectories
- Amplitude simulation
- Determination of robot size
- Simulation of work rates
- ...
Programming
Once the feasibility study has been validated, our industrial robotics design office will program your robots in the appropriate computer language. The programming stage ensures that the installations with PLCs and robotic systems work properly, adapting them to your needs.
During the programming phase, our team carries out the following tasks:
- Development of algorithms to manage robot tasks
- Configuration of on-board software
- Establishing communication with the other systems required for the application
- Programming sequences of operations
- Managing the safety of people and installations
- ...
Assembly
Once the robots have been programmed in the appropriate computer language, our industrial robotics engineering and design department assembles them.
- Assembly of robot structures
- Wiring and electrical connection
- Design and assembly of mechanical assemblies (grippers, applicators, fixtures, templates, etc.)
- Calibration and various adjustments
- ...
Once assembly is complete, the robots are put into service and the applications are tested and developed by the engineers and technicians in our industrial robotics design office.
Integration on your production line
Our industrial robotics design office team will visit your premises and integrate the robots into your production line:
- Equipment installation
- Connection
- Programming trajectories
- Commissioning
Why automate your production lines with robots?
There are many reasons for automating your production lines.
Better productivity
Automating your production by integrating robots enables you to complete tasks more quickly. As a result, your production lines become more efficient, leading to higher output and greater productivity.
Depending on the machines you have and the operations you carry out, you can automate them by adding customised robots to make them more efficient.
Eliminating repetitive tasks
Difficult and repetitive tasks performed by human operators can cause musculoskeletal disorders and be a major source of danger.
By integrating industrial robotics solutions into your production lines, you can eliminate these repetitive tasks by entrusting them to robots. In this way, the automation process also becomes an element that improves the working conditions of your operators.
Cost reduction
Automating machines with suitable robots minimises the risk of human error, reducing waste and delays.
Furthermore, implementing automation solutions allows you to redeploy your operators to other tasks that are essential to your business, enabling you to make savings on repetitive tasks.
Take advantage of the expertise of our industrial robotics design office to bring your robot design and integration project to fruition.
The automation and robotisation process goes beyond simply integrating robots into your production lines. To guarantee successful automation of your production, it is important to entrust your robot design, development and manufacturing project to a technical design office with expertise in industrial robotics.
With more than 30 years of experience, our industrial design consultancy offers its expertise to help professionals turn their automation projects into reality using robots and other PLCs.
