Plastic Container Production through Hanwha HCR-5

This is an injection molding and assembly automation solution that utilizes three Hanwha HCR-5 collaborative robots to manufacture plastic containers.

When a human operator inputs the container components, the cobots take over to combine the parts and perform quality testing. This system eliminates idle time typically caused by manual task switching, thereby maximizing productivity. Furthermore, the integration of 100% automated testing ensures superior product quality and consistency.

Components

Robot	Robot: 3 Hanwha HCR-5 Units Type: 6-axis articulated collaborative robot (cobot) Payload: 5kg Reach: 915mm Max Speed: 1m/s Repeatability: ±0.1mm Weight: 21kg (Lightweight and easy to redeploy)

Workflow

STEP 1.	Picking: The robots pick up the top and bottom sections of the container.
STEP 2.	Bottom Loading: Inserts the bottom section into the assembly jig.
STEP 3.	Top Loading: Places the top section onto the bottom part.
STEP 4.	Heating & Compression: Performs the thermal bonding and pressing process.
STEP 5.	Pressure Testing: Moves the assembled unit into the pressure test device for leak checks.
STEP 6.	Cleaning: Inserts the product into a device to remove any remaining debris or foreign substances.
STEP 7.	Discharge: Places the finished, verified product onto the outfeed conveyor.

Key Features

Improved Production Efficiency & Enhanced Quality

Minimized Idle Time: Maximizes throughput by optimizing the collaboration between human workers and robots, eliminating gaps in the workflow.
Zero-Defect Quality: Performs 100% automated inspection and pressure testing on every unit to ensure perfect reliability and minimize defect rates.

Compact & Safe Installation

Space Optimization: The compact footprint of the Hanwha HCR-5 cobot allows for installation in tight spaces without requiring extensive floor reconfiguration.
Fence-Free Safety: Built-in collision detection sensors minimize the risk of accidents, allowing the robot to operate safely alongside humans without bulky safety cages.

Intuitive & Easy Teaching

Direct Teaching: Operators can program the robot by simply moving the robot arm by hand to the desired positions, making it accessible even for non-experts.
Flexible Deployment: The system can be quickly adapted and reprogrammed to handle different product types or process changes with ease.
