Automating PCBA testing with collaborative robots

Hanover designs and manufactures passenger information systems for the public transport industry. Whilst bringing the high-speed production of PCBs in-house, they faced the challenge of testing and inspecting the boards. Hanover decided to automate the repetitive process of testing 240,000 boards per year. With the support of Absolute Robotics, they deployed cobots that could interact with the manual test equipment and relieve operators, also running unmanned.

KUKA KR DELTA – Hygienic robot

High-speed robots in the hygienic machine variant for handling and picking of small parts in a range of industries including food, pharmaceuticals and electronics.

Plastic vs metal cobot clamps

In this video, you can see the comparison between the assembly time of an igus plastic cobot clamp and the metal version. There simply is no comparison when it comes to the speed, however the metal ones can sometimes be the better option when there is a faster motion. Luckily igus offers both options! So, whatever your application, it can offer you a solution.

Drone in a box

In this video, you'll learn about the "drone in the box." The drones can fly autonomously and automatically, thanks to the box system. You can see that igus products are used not only within drones but within the box, from miniature energy chains and dryspin leadscrews for opening and closing the cover, to its ReBel robolink joint automating the battery replacement.
