1. Non-productive time is long because workers transfer workpieces between machines.
2. A lot of human intervention involved in each process causes inconsistent production volume and quality among workers.
3. The large floor space occupied by many machines imposes various restrictions on work activities.
Process integration by replacing 5 machines (for 5 processes) with 1 machine MT200 (2 processes)!
Achieves shorter cycle time, consistent quality and production volume, and space saving!
By automating the conventional loading/unloading of workpieces and the transfer of them between machines, we have achieved shorter cycle time and consistent production quality and volume.
In the past, there were about 15 human intervention spots in total for loading/unloading workpieces, transporting between machines, starting machining programs, and other operations throughout the five processes.
The MT200 allows for reducing the number of intervention points to two, resulting in not only elimination of variations in quality and production volume among operators, but also labor saving.
Reduced cycle time : With the unnecessary human intervention time eliminated, the overall cycle time has been dramatically reduced.
Space-saving : The floor space necessary for production has been reduced by approximately 50%, with the production capacity and productivity improved.
