Automated Production Unit Solution of “One Machine, One Manipulator, One System”.

Advantages

Improve Security
The typical I/O wiring between the manipulator and the injection molding machine is eliminated by the full digital communication and bus design, minimizing wiring-related safety concerns. The injection molding machine's computer stores both the mold settings and the manipulator action program in the same file, which speeds up commissioning and minimizes the annoyance of mismatched manipulators.
Reduce Operational Issues
The manipulator’s operation safety is enhanced to avoid collisions between the manipulator and the injection molding machine during operation.
Lower the Cost
The computer of the injection molding machine could directly control the manipulator, eliminating the need for additional teaching pendants and allowing multiple manipulators to share a single teaching pendant.
Increase Productivity
Reduce the time required for taking out items from the mold.
Automated position recognition (position correction) by the manipulator increases stability when inserting materials or retrieving goods.
