The technology can give moulding firms the technology and tools needed to confidently operate ‘ghost’ workflow shifts with minimal human intervention. Every element was engineered by Sumitomo (SHI) Demag’s automation experts in house. Also included in the cell is a storage and conveyor system with buffer and integrated boxing unit. The full turnkey cell – measuring as little as 3.95m x 2.4m- features the highly efficient all- electric IntElect75 with the company’s new SAM-C5. Premiering to the UK & Ireland market, and designed for trade moulders and SMEs, the linear 4- axis robot with cartesian kinematics for standard applications, offers a compact production unit with efficient handling functions, and fully-integrated robotic controls.
Enabling manufacturers to increase production yields by letting automation pick-up extra unsupervised night shifts, Sumitomo (SHI) Demag will also reveal how existing and prospective customers can reduce overheads and unlock untapped profit opportunities.
