Why apply robotics techniques in production processes

In solving complex issues in manufacturing processes, robotics is one of the most important techniques. In our projects robotics and / or servo systems are always an integral part of the total solution. As manufacturers want more flexibility in the manufacturing process, an increasingly high degree of automation and free programming is desired, with industrial robots being used almost always.

Robotics provides flexibility and continuous quality in your manufacturing process

By using industrial robotics, for example, 10 products can be manufactured or assembled on the same production line. This will save you a lot of time and effort as conversion of production lines is a matter of a push of a button. With the help of robotics, manufacturers have more flexibility and the high level of automation can deliver consistent high quality at competitive prices. Even when it comes to smaller quantities. For our customers, this is very important for maintaining their competitive position.

Complex automation issues require customization

When it comes to complex issues, the solution is never completely standard, but it always involves a combination of standard and custom. Custom work requires high quality knowledge. Our specialists use standard robots and servo systems that are made suitable for a specific application. Expanding a product range and tailor-made developments are the basis of our activities. As well as programming robots, PLCs, servos, scados and peripherals to enable them to perform the right function for a specific task in the manufacturing process.

Z-tech has its own robotics and servo control specialists

All work in the field of robotics and various operating systems are carried out by own highly qualified employees. Characteristic is that Z-Tech operates independently of robot manufacturers such as ABB, Fanuc, Stäubly, Panasonic and Mitsubishi. This is especially important for our customers. If a manufacturer chooses Z-tech, we can adapt ourselves to the existing systems within the company if possible and appropriate. This can also be a cost-benefit advantage. Just think of the knowledge or the necessary spare parts for the installation.

Robotics in combination with vision systems

Robotics are often used in conjunction with vision systems. Vision systems are used for quality control or to control the robots. It is important that both systems connect properly and communicate with each other optimally. Vision systems are also being applied and are important (see further vision) in optimizing production processes.
