Robot cell for battery tray handling

A six-axis robot now loads formed battery trays into the press line, guided by a camera that checks every part before it moves.

The challenge

Trays arrived from the former warm and slightly warped. Two operators loaded them by hand at a pace that left no time for inspection.

What we built

A fenced cell with one robot, a vision station that measures each tray and a reject chute for anything out of tolerance. The robot program was proven in simulation before the first part was cut.

  • Offline programming and reach study in the digital twin
  • Light curtains and safe speed monitoring for manual loading
  • Recipe change from the HMI in under two minutes

Results

Stable 12.4-second cycle, zero handling damage since start-up and a payback inside fourteen months.
