Improving product quality–Robotics and Automation

The ability of industrial robots to consistently produce high-quality parts for virtually any product can be attributed to their accuracy and repeatability, regardless of application. The real benefits of improved product quality include machining the most vulnerable materials without damage, flawless finishing of coatings, and high-quality welds that guarantee product integrity.

Reduced operating costs–Robotics and Automation

By integrating industrial robots into their manufacturing processes, companies can significantly reduce direct costs and administrative expenses. Industrial robots can easily adapt to new production lines without costly training, which is more time-consuming due to their inherent flexibility and ease of programming. Thanks to their accuracy and repeatability, reducing defects and waste, they consistently deliver the highest quality parts. Because industrial robots do not require health care, insurance or income, and their energy requirements for lighting, heating/cooling and other amenities are low, they can save more.

Increased production flexibility–Robotics and Automation

One of the most attractive benefits of robotic automation is the ease of process switching, which allows manufacturers to meet the growing need for product customization and design changes. Because industrial robots are easily reprogrammable, the barriers between changing consumer demand and manufacturers’ ability to respond quickly and cost-effectively to the marketplace are smaller, increasing competitiveness. Industrial robotics is a modern multipurpose solution for small-scale production, and any manufacturer would benefit from the ability to run different products on the same production line.

Reduced financial costs

Using robots to create faster, more efficient production lines (WIP) can reduce capital costs associated with inventory and unfinished products. Companies can more accurately predict productivity and provide fast, efficient service to the market at the right time, allowing products to move through production processes faster. Robots are adaptable and can be replicated to often handle different products or tasks on the same production line without buying additional capital. Today’s industrial robots have the ability to collect and share performance data that can provide information about their health and maintenance requirements, allowing manufacturers to extend the life of their stationary devices.

Reducing waste

There are many different types of waste in the manufacturing process, all of which result in costs that affect the bottom line and must be reduced in order to maximize a company’s profitability.
