The Rise of Robotics and Automation in Manufacturing
we see a specific example of how robotics and automation are used in the packaging process for ice cream.
The image shows how the ice cream is first packaged in individual cups by an automated machine. The cups are then transported by a conveyor belt to another machine that picks them up and places them in a carton box. The machine uses a vacuum system to pick up the cups and place them in the box, ensuring precise placement and preventing damage to the cups or the ice cream.
Once the cups are placed in the box, the machine then seals the box with adhesive tape, and a label is applied to the box. The box is then transported by another conveyor belt to the next stage of the production process.
One ice cream packed line (one robot) can reach to 90ppm with single gripping. If the infeeding products are neat and regular, the gripper can be customized to pick more than one product. Which means the efficiency for one robot can be larger than 90ppm.
The use of robotics and automation in this process has several benefits. Firstly, it increases efficiency and productivity, allowing for a higher output of ice cream products. Additionally, the use of robotics and automation ensures the accuracy and consistency of the packaging process, reducing the likelihood of errors or defects in the final product. Finally, it reduces the need for manual labor, improving workplace safety and reducing the risk of injury to workers.
Overall, this example highlights how robotics and automation are transforming the manufacturing industry by streamlining processes, increasing efficiency, and improving product quality. As the technology continues to advance, we can expect to see even more advancements in the field of robotics and automation, leading to further improvements in the manufacturing process.
