ABB FlexPicker Pick and Place Robot Cell
What is a robotic work cell?
We define robotic work cell on the iGAM Glossary as a complete system composed of one or more robots and robot controllers. Other equipment such as PLCs, HMIs, and more may be added to complete the cell as well.
Work cells can be easily integrated into your manufacturing line. Since they are a turnkey automation solution, they provide everything you need to perform a job, such as material handling, welding, and more.
The ins-and-outs of ABB robots
Why choose ABB, you might ask?
ABB is one of the top names in industrial automation today. You might recognize them by their trademark white robots with red ABB lettering. With over 400,000 robot installations, they are a practically a household name in the manufacturing world.
They created the first all-electric microprocessor-controlled robot, and since 1883, the company has expanded to the following industries:
- Oil and gas
- Power
- Chemicals and pharmaceuticals
- Pulp and paper
- Metals and minerals
- Marine and turbocharging
- Food production
- Automotive
Depending on the robot, such as the ABB FlexPicker Pick and Place robot cell, their systems can be used for an even wider variety of industries and applications.
4 reasons to invest in a FlexPicker robot cell
The FlexPicker robot cell is your opportunity to improve productivity and workplace safety in your facility. Read the four reasons how they do that and why you should invest in one (or more!) below.
1. Increase product speed and throughput
Production is more efficient with a pick and place robotic work cell. With consistent speed and no breaks, these robots will increase capacity on your manufacturing line.
2. Improve product quality
The FlexPicker cell also enhances product quality by preventing human error. For example, ABB names their pick and place robots as the reason a pretzel manufacturer reduced broken pretzels from 12 percent to 4 percent after automating their process.
3. Reduce worker fatigue
Industrial robots are key to protecting your workers from musculoskeletal disorders (MSD). Material handling is a notoriously tedious and boring job… for humans. Robots like the ABB FlexPicker cell can take the monotony while human workers can shift to more fulfilling and interesting work.
4. Eliminate labor turnover
Finally, industrial automation allows you to prevent labor turnover from disrupting your production goals. With the skills gap that currently plagues the industry, this is a necessity for manufacturers looking to grow their companies.
