Eliminate incorrect insertion of sheet metal inserts to zero! Solve it with in-house robots and detection cameras.
The combination of automatic transport robots and front-and-back detection cameras completely eliminates the problem of incorrect insertion of sheet metal inserts.
In sheet metal insert molding, if the front and back of the sheet metal are mistakenly set during molding, it can lead to serious issues such as functional defects, appearance defects, and mold damage. A system that relies on manual setup and visual confirmation cannot completely prevent human errors during long hours of mass production. At Yoshida Techno Works, we have developed an in-house dedicated robot for the automatic transport of sheet metal to molds for mass production of exterior panels for electronic cigarettes, establishing a method that incorporates front and back detection cameras along the transport route. Sheet metal that is judged as NG (not good) by the camera's front and back determination is automatically eliminated, ensuring that only correctly oriented sheet metal is inserted into the mold. By integrating automatic transport and front/back detection, we achieve zero misinsertion while maintaining the pace of mass production. We also accommodate customization of robots and jigs according to the shape and size of the sheet metal.
