Leamington Spa-based Mills CNC Automation (
www.millscnc.co.uk) will showcase two collaborative robots (cobots) at
Southern Manufacturing 2020 (Stand B160).
The first (the M0617) is the largest cobot in the Doosan range in terms of reach radius (1.7m); it will perform a range of tasks that demonstrate its flexibility and broad application potential.
The second cobot features integrated vision technology, which enables it to identify and sort parts by size, shape, orientation or other criteria.
Product manager Peter McCullough said: “Doosan cobots are designed to perform a range of tasks that include CNC machine tool tending, testing and inspection — plus packaging, palletising, assembly and ‘pick and place’ operations.
"The two cobots we are taking to the show will demonstrate the undoubted productivity and operational efficiency benefits that can be achieved through investing in the latest automation technology.”
Mills CNC says Doosan cobots are characterised by their build quality, safety, versatility and ease of use. They are equipped with six-axis articulated arms with highly sensitive torque sensors that detect any change in force or pressure, causing them to stop.
There are four cobots in the Doosan range, each with a different payload capacity and reach radius; they are supplied with a ‘state of the art’ controller and an intuitive pendant control.
All the cobots can be specified with different end-of-arm tooling systems, and they are backed by Mills CNC Automation's best-in-class technical support.
