Welding project uses robotics to crunch 12 workhours into 45 minutes
- A welding project for fencing on a bridge utilized robotics and automation to reduce 10-hour manual tasks to 45 minutes.
- Properly Works collaborated with Seibel Modern to create a fully automated robotic work cell for welding tasks.
- The project achieved a 12-1 reduction in time and reduced touch-up work by 50% through automation.
- The AutomationDirect Productivity 3000 PLC coordinated the robotic work cell, ensuring precise positioning and safety measures.
- Special cases were accommodated through the PLC's programming, enabling variations in fence segments.
- The system addressed weld quality by using an automatic reamer and shielded cables for harsh EMI/RFI environments.
- The intuitive operator interface, built on the C-more HMI panel, allowed easy monitoring and control of the welding process.
- The client saw significant improvements in efficiency, with a single fence segment now taking only 45 minutes to produce.
- AutomationDirect was the preferred supplier for the project, providing necessary automation components for successful integration.
- The success of the project has led the client to consider further automation projects with Properly Works.
