Automatisierungspotenziale in der Galvanikindustrie: Von der intelligenten Beschickung bis hin zum flexiblen Handhabungssystem

Introduction of sensor-controlled robots into the industrial setting, increases productivity, extends the life of components in the equipment and underpins human input in carrying out precision operations. All of these issues will be found in the Metal Finishing industry. Using sensor-controlled robots, it is possible to load plating racks, even if these racks are slightly displaced. An attractively-priced sensor-controlled robotic system, easy to install, allows rack loading and also extends the life of the spring contacts. The components of such systems can be classified under headings such as object recognition, flexible gripping techniques and process control sensors. In these terms, a modular construction kit has been developed.
