CNC Machining Work Cell nearing completion
The two CNC machining centers that flank the Fanuc S420iW Robot have been repositioned, and the safety cage is completed. Programming is in the final stages, and it is starting to look like Show Time.
We are very excited about getting this project operational. Several delays were encountered, but that is to be expected when a new technology is added to facility operations. Efficiency percentages have not been worked out yet, but the pick-and-place robot will improve production efficiency by enabling one operator to oversee both machining centers, freeing a second operator to be used for other applications.
Stay tuned for production video.
