Introduction
Modern industrial production is constantly moving toward automation to meet growing market demands and increase operational efficiency. At SIM Gdynia, production processes are supported by modern loading robots, which are an integral part of process lines. The use of robots such as Fanuc M-710iC/45M contributes to increased productivity and quality of manufactured components, which in turn improves the company’s competitiveness on the global market
Automation in the production of mechanical components
With increasing expectations for speed and precision in production, process automation is becoming an essential component of today’s industrial plants. High volume production, especially in the CNC industry, requires technologies that enable uninterrupted operation and minimize human error. Loading robots, such as the Fanuc M-710iC/45M, are a key tool in this process, allowing efficient management of material flow and optimization of the production cycle.
Fanuc M-710iC/45M multitasking robots
The Fanuc M-710iC/45M robot is a versatile device designed for a wide range of industrial applications. It features a compact design that allows installation in space-constrained areas. The robot has six axes of motion, with a reach of up to 2606 mm, allowing it to maneuver efficiently in a large workspace. With a payload capacity of up to 45 kg and an operating speed of 360 degrees per second, the Fanuc M-710iC/45M is ideal for fast parts handling and pallet handling. Another advantage is its full IP67-rated protection, which guarantees reliable operation in harsh environments.
SIM Gdynia case study
At SIM Gdynia, Fanuc M-710iC/45M robots have been integrated into production lines to operate our two CNC machine tools simultaneously. At each machine is a table with moving pallets on which the robots place workpieces.
The process begins by picking up an unmachined workpiece, after which the robot, in response to a signal from the machine, places it in the appropriate position for machining. When the process is complete, the workpiece is put back on the pallet, and the table moves to prepare space for the next workpiece. Thanks to these robots, we are completing large production batches at SIM Gdynia with the highest quality standards.
Summary
The automation of production processes at SIM Gdynia, using Fanuc M-710iC/45M loading robots, is an excellent example of a modern approach to production management in the CNC industry. Investment in technologies that support the operation of production lines allows not only to increase efficiency, but also to adapt to the dynamically changing needs of the market.
