Industries - Plastic and Polymers

 

Adding value and increasing the safety of plastic and polymer production

Industrial robots can be used across all areas of plastic and polymer production, including: de-gating, PCB loading and unloading, and pick and place projects. Plastic and polymer manufacturing requires high flexibility since different materials require different processing (other temperature ranges etc.).

Multiple stages in your production can be automated – even when there is no one around. Robot arms reduce employee exposure to noxious gases given off during the production of plastics and polymers. They also increase safety since they protect employees on the production lines from plastic shavings and the handling with sharp objects. Collaborative robot arms are also good at reducing repetitive work for employees while being able to extend production capabilities.

Processing of plastics and polymers becomes flexible

There are several types of plastics and polymers with different production processes. When plastics are made, production needs to change often. With robot arms you can increase or decrease production in your company without having to adjust staff levels.

Robot arms are lightweight, space-saving and easy to re-deploy to multiple applications without changing your production layout. It is fast and easy to move the robot to a new process – this gives you the agility to automate almost any task – including those with small batches or fast change-overs in plastic and polymer production and other areas.
