在 Wood Dale 制造工厂结合冷镦和机器人加工，以提高产量并缩短生产时间

Wood Dale, IL. – February 22, 2022 — Optimas Solutions, a global industrial manufacturer/distributor and supply chain solutions provider, has introduced Universal Robot’s UR10e robotic technology to its CNC machining operations. Now, cold heading and machining can be  done onsite at Optimas’ Wood Dale manufacturing facility, making fastener production faster and more seamless for customers.

Optimas 已部署 UR10e 协作机器人，以同时为两个 CNC 提供加工冷镦紧固件的 CNC，以满足客户的规格要求。近净冷成型和高公差加工的结合使 Optimas 能够以更短的循环时间和更低的碳足迹来增加产量。

“In addition to the two cold headers we added last year to meet onshoring demand, partnering robotics with our CNC machining really expands our capabilities in three ways for customers,”  said Seina Savoji, vice president and general manager of 制造业. “First, the dual action capability of the robot to feed and unload two CNC machines increases production dramatically.  Second, we’re able to reduce the time and cost of using partners for certain types of machining to finish production. And third, it allows us to re-deploy operators to do more skilled work.

In addition to the robotic arm, Optimas’ implementation includes an easy-to-use touch screen tablet with intuitive 3D visualization to set the robot arm for desired waypoints. It also includes two parts feeding rails to support the robotic arm for easy, operator-free loading of cold headed fasteners into the CNC machines. The new system is expected to increase output by 56.25% or from  576 to 900 parts per shift.

Optimas 的机器人支持的 CNC 加工已针对一种现在需求量极大的零件类型进行了编程。该公司计划扩大其加工直径达 22 毫米、长度达 200 毫米的冷成型零件的能力。

“This robotic technology gives us a competitive advantage by merging our complex, cold forming capabilities with automated, tight-tolerance machining in a single location. This saves time and costs associated with producing engineered components with superior strength characteristics.,” said Daniel Harms, Optimas President, Americas. “ Optimas is the only fastener distributor with an end-to-end IATF-certified manufacturing operations that includes fastener engineering, tool and die, cold heading/threading, machining and 质量 testing under one roof. As we drive our 前进更快 通过技术进步和创新战略，它使我们能够更快地满足客户对大容量复杂紧固件解决方案的需求。”
