Workflow
| STEP 1. | Feeding: Materials are fed one by one via a bowl feeder and aligned through an alignment device. |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | Loading: 2 to 4 rings are inserted into the injection molding equipment. |
| STEP 3. | Take-out: The completed injection-molded product is extracted. |
| STEP 4. | Gate Cutting: The gate is removed using dedicated cutting equipment. |
| STEP 5. | Deburring Input: The product is placed into the deburring device. |
| STEP 6. | Deburring: The burr removal process is performed. |
| STEP 7. | Discharge: The finished part is moved to the discharge conveyor. |

Recommended Solution
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.
Injection Molding Take-out and Laser Cutting using Yushin Precision Equipment
This laser processing automation solution utilizes the YUSHIN SC-150 take-out robot to automate the process of extracting plastic injection-molded parts and performing (gate) laser cutting. By integrating the tasks from part extraction to gate laser cutting, the system minimizes management points and significantly improves productivity. *The process is implemented after thorough testing based on the specific shape of the product.
Cosmetic Container Packaging through COMAU Racer-5
This automated packaging solution utilizes the COMAU Racer-5 to automate the manual process of loading cosmetic containers into boxes. The system picks up containers arriving in a single line and arranges them into organized rows within the box. It also automates the placement of interlayer sheets (dividers) between each layer of products, ensuring maximum productivity while minimizing management touchpoints. By handling both the product and the packaging material, the robot provides a seamless and efficient end-of-line solution.
