Injection Molding Machines

Injection molding machines have very quick cycle times, requiring frequent unloading of finished components. Robots are ideally suited for this application. They provide a noticeable improvement in productivity and machine uptime. If the cycle times are longer, two machines can be serviced by One robot, thus providing quicker ROI.

Vacuum or pneumatic grippers can be used to handle the parts gently. Placement of inserts to molds is a very critical application. Operators have to get close to the dies during insert placement and they are exposed to heat and toxic fumes. Robots offer more Flexibility when compared to traditional gantry pick and place systems.

Robots can play a vital role in ensuring part quality and eliminating the hazards faced by operators.
