SAMURAI ASIA Editorial Department
TAKAMATSU MACHINERY (THAILAND) presented its solution for automation in collaboration with the collaborative robot "TechMan Robot" at METALEX2020.
A system composed of a CNC lathe and easy-to-teach TechMan Robot contributes to automation (labor saving) and productivity improvement.
TAKAMATSU MACHINERY x TechMan Robot
Contributing to Factor Automation through collaboration between simple machines
An automatic system that combines the CNC lathe "GSL-10H", with sales growing in the Asian region, and the collaborative robot "TechMan Robot" was exhibited. The TechMan Robot uses the built-in vision system (camera) to automatically correct the position and attach/detach it to/from the "GSL-10H".
Depending on how the CNC lathes and TechMan Robot are positioned, one robot can work on multiple machines at the same time.
Machines that are easy to operate will realize automation
Among the collaborative robots with arms, the TechMan Robot has many distinctive features.Anyone can directly teach the robot to work by moving the robot by hand.
✔︎ Vision system (smart camera) is installed as standard
There is no need to prepare a sensor for positioning
✔︎ Easy to move the robot itself
Easy-and-flexible position arrangement, such as moving the position when a human has to work
It is obvious that products which are “easy to use for field workers” will strongly support automation and will greatly contribute to solving labor shortages. TAKAMAZ's CNC lathe "GSL-10H" also has the concept of "cost performance and ease of use", thus they are a perfect match.
TAKAMATSU MACHINERY x MECHATRO ASSOCIATES x HAKUSAN
Collaboration project connected by having the same hometown (Ishikawa Prefecture)
The collaborated exhibition was created when President Ikezawa of MECHATRO ASSOCIATES (THAILAND) introduced the TechMan Robot to Yamashita MD of TAKAMATSU MACHINERY (THAILAND). In addition, HAKUSAN (THAILAND) designed the conveyor for an automatic chip discharge system. All three companies headquartered in Ishikawa Prefecture brought in solutions to support automation in Thailand, triggered by the relationship with their hometown.
6inch CNC precision lathe "XT-6" a FANUC loader can be selected
At the booth, the new model "XT-6" series also attracted attention. It can be selected from the well-established Σi loader or the new Fanuc Loader that emphasizes operability and high speed.
TAKAMAZ supports "manufacturing" in Thailand with machines that are user-friendly and respond flexibly to various demands.
