Performing machining, milling and cutting operations by robot reduces risks related to the health and safety of workers. These tasks are performed in a robotic cell, which results in a cleaner work environment as well. The consistency and precision of the robot provide superior quality cuts.
Ultrasonic blade cutting uses a high-frequency vibrating a blade to cut through material. The main benefits of this process are the reduced downtimes for knife cleaning, its energy efficiency, and its silent application.
Milling is a machining process using the rotation of a cutting tool moving through a workpiece to remove some material in the form of chips. This cutting option is preferred with stiff material and usually requires a larger robot due to the force required to hold the part. The robot can either move the part around the rotating tool, or move the tool around the part.
SAFETY & EFFICIENCY
A robotic end-of-arm tooling enables tasks to be performed efficiently and without endangering the user’s safety. This is particularly true when the process requires the repetitive use of dangerous tools.
