Cobots Boost CNC Machine Productivity and Free Up Manpower
EMI, a manufacturing company specializing in high-precision and complex parts for the high-tech, medical, and aerospace industries, faced the challenge of increasing productivity to remain competitive while suffering from professional manpower shortage. EMI realized automation was the only way to face the challenge; releasing their skilled workers from simple repetitive tasks, which can be done by cobots. The partnership with acubez™ and Universal Robots enabled the company to overcome this challenge. Since EMI deployed the modular, UR cobot-powered acubez™ automation solution to tend milling and mill-turning CNC machines, CMM machines and laser marking machines, it has added hundreds of production hours to its capacity annually, resulting in the cobots paying themselves back in 12-18 months while also increasing overall efficiency (OEE) significantly from ~70% to ~95%.
