Case Studies
Fish Processing
Food case study
A Grimsby fish processor has successfully implemented robots into its facility to remove the heavy and repetitive load and unloading tasks. Producing dried fish, JHS Fish Products Limited has two FANUC Robotics robots handling palletised fish at both the raw and the dry stages of the process.
JHS is strategically located in Grimsby to take fish heads, tails, fins, backbones and lugs from other fish processors in the area. What other processors classify as waste, or offal, has a very specific market in Nigeria where a fish flavoured stock is produced and added to a favourite stew delicacy….Read more….
Coded system 100 cell
Welding Case Study
Precision engineer and sheet metal fabricator, William A Lewis Engineering Limited of Shrewsbury has illustrated just how versatile a single robot can become once its full potential is realised. A subcontractor predominantly to the defence sector, WA Lewis is using the robot cell to weld, at coded level, the widest range of materials and also for plasma-cutting plate up to two inches thick.
The FANUC Robotics System 100 welding cell comprises a six axes FANUC Robotics ArcMate 100iB robot within a self-contained enclosure. Components loaded into jigs on a manually operated table are loaded outside the cell while the robot welds components within the cell.
The system is designed and manufactured by FANUC Robotics as a self contained unit which is delivered ready assembled and only requires services to be connected before operation on site. Read More …
Crane boom welding system
Welding Case Study
Manufacturing telescopic crane booms and container handling equipment for leading businesses such as Liebherr,Faun, Manitowoc and Bromma makes welding a core operation at Poland based Teleskop. Welding represents over 90% of its manufacturing process so control of quality and cost in this area is of paramount importance.
Teleskop currently has eight FANUC Robotics welding robots which it has installed over a three year period and plans to install a further 6 in 2008. Experience gained over this period has given Teleskop’s Team the confidence to undertake complex applications and with each installation it aims to go that ‘little bit further’. Read more…..
