Process Overview
This assembly automation solution uses a YUSHIN take-out robot (SCⅡ 150) to perform insert molding, placing a nut into the mold and overmolding it with plastic, followed by automated inspection. By automating both the insert-loading operation and the downstream inspection process, the system minimizes quality-control touchpoints while improving overall productivity.
Components
| Robot | Injection molding take-out robot YUSHIN SCⅡ-150D (for insert loading) 5-axis Cartesian robot + 90° tilting arm Payload: 5 kg Repeatability: ±0.1 mm Stroke (robot specs): Travel 1,500 mm / Vertical 850 mm / Fore–aft 468 mm End-of-arm tooling (EOAT) / Tools Pneumatic grippers: 8 units (Insert loading 4 / Part take-out 4) 3-axis Cartesian robot for vision inspection (including a rotary tool Pneumatic grippers: 3 units (Vision inspection 1 / Orientation-change jig loading 2) |
|---|---|
| Peripherals | Insert injection molding equipment (optional / separate) Bowl feeder (BOWL FEEDER) Nut loading cylinder Finished-part transfer unit (post-insert) Insert orientation-change jig Vision inspection system |
Workflow
| STEP 1. | Feed and singulate nut blanks via the bowl feeder |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | Pick four nut blanks |
| STEP 3. | Load them into the insert-molding station |
| STEP 4. | Take out the insert-molded parts and load them onto the finished-part transfer unit |
| STEP 5. | Move the parts to the orientation-change jig |
| STEP 6. | Pick parts one-by-one for vision inspection |
| STEP 7. | Sort and discharge into trays based on inspection results |
Features
Improved Production Efficiency and Quality
Continuous, low-idle operation improves overall production efficiency.
Total inspection minimizes defect rates.
Fewer control points reduce the number of operators required.
Cost-Effective Performance with a Dedicated Take-Out Robot
A dedicated take-out robot enables a compact installation and overhead handling.
Optimized motion profiles support high-speed cycle operation.
Compared to articulated robots, this tailored solution minimizes upfront investment cost.
Results
| Key Benefits | Improved productivity, Minimized staffing by reducing control/management points |
|---|---|
| Client Feedback | Because machining cycle time was short, continuous operation was required by deploying Seojeong’s solution, we increased production speed and were able to perform 100% inspection, which also improved product quality. |

Recommended Solution
Expanding Form Press Machine Tending using Yaskawa Robots
This machine tending automation solution utilizes YASKAWA robots in conjunction with press machines to automate the loading of workpieces for the expansion of cylindrical metal products, significantly enhancing process safety. Due to the nature of press operations—characterized by extremely short cycle times and high-risk environments—industrial accidents are a frequent concern. By automating the entire sequence from workpiece infeed and discharge to continuous press forming, this solution drastically increases productivity while minimizing the operator's management touchpoints.
Metal Machining Machine Tending for Three WIA MCTs using Yaskawa Robots
This machine tending automation solution utilizes a YASKAWA industrial robot to automate the loading and unloading of metal workpieces for three WIA MCT (F410D) units. In the traditional process, operators had to stand by the machines constantly to manually feed workpieces. By delegating the loading and unloading tasks to the robot, operators can now focus on overall equipment management and system operation, significantly increasing operational efficiency. Furthermore, by having a single robot service three machining centers, productivity is maximized across the entire production cell.
