Robotic Machine Tending
Why Automate
Your Machine Shop?
Stop Fighting Production Problems. Start Planning for Growth.
Every labor issue, machine bottleneck, scrap event, and missed shipment slows production. Backlogs grow. Customers get frustrated. New opportunities get turned away.
The answer is automation.
Robotic machine tending solutions from Mitsubishi Electric US, Industrial Automation help manufacturers reduce production uncertainty, overcome workforce constraints, and increase output. By automating machine tending, you can spend less time dealing with today's production problems and more time pursuing tomorrow's growth opportunities.
What Is Robotic Machine Tending?
Robotic machine tending uses industrial robots to automatically load and unload CNC machines and other production equipment. Manufacturers use robotic machine tending to increase machine utilization, reduce the impact of labor shortages, improve throughput, support lights-out manufacturing, and create more predictable production operations. Machine tending automation is commonly used in CNC machining, turning, milling, grinding, molding, and other repetitive manufacturing processes.
Benefits of Robotic Machine Tending
Grow Your Competitive Edge Without Growing Your Risk
For many production managers, robotic machine tending sounds promising, but it also raises a lot of questions. Will it work with existing CNC machines? How difficult will implementation be?
How much floor space will be needed? Will operators resist it? How steep is the learning curve? And how much disruption will it create before results are seen?
These are valid concerns. The good news is that today's machine tending solutions are more flexible, easier to deploy, and less disruptive than many manufacturers realize. With Mitsubishi Electric as your automation partner, robotic machine tending can be implemented quickly, integrated seamlessly with existing equipment, and begin delivering measurable productivity sooner than expected.
We can help you increase capacity, reduce operational costs, and capture more revenue by eliminating production bottlenecks and making every machine and labor hour more productive.
