ERMAFLEX 6-axis robotic cell

Presentation :

The 6-Axis ERMAFLEX Robotic Cell (Kuka or Staubli) is an industrial educational system for packaging (Cartoning, Quality Control, and Traceability).

This cell can be used independently or connected with other systems in the Ermaflex mini-factory, for example downstream of the Polyprod (multi-format filling/capping unit) and upstream of the Palletizer

Technical solutions :

6 axis industrial robot (Kuka or Staubli)

- Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and HMI – Color touchscreen operator panel
- Conveying – Belt conveyor
- Handling/Gripping – Suction cup head and gripper
- Industrial Communication and Supervision – Ethernet, Profinet, IO-Link
- Electrical Power – Low-voltage devices, Variable frequency drives, Asynchronous motors
- Pneumatics – Venturi, 5/2 and 5/3 valves, Cylinders
- Sensors – Fiber optic, Reed switches (ILS), Photoelectric, Smart sensors
- Quality Control – Industrial vision sensor
- Traceability and Logistics – RFID reading/writing

Pedagogical activities :

Functional analysis and robotic technologies studies

Production monitoring (campain parameter) and quality control by sampling

Manufacturing optimisation (manufacturing process management, organisation and upgrading : cycle time calculation, return analysis)

Quality control by vision and weight control

Production tracability implementation

Production campaign changing (robot tools changing, convoyor configuration ...)

6 axis robot preventive maintenance (axis recalibration, belt tension check out ...)

Corrective maintenance (ex : trajectory modification ...)

Ameliorative maintenance (ex : unique grip tool conception ...)

Robot cycle and related peripheral programming and simulating (conveyor, weighing, vision)

Operator interface programming

Specific skills :

Industrials need robotic skills : work on "cellule robotisée 6 axes Ermaflex" is something more for learners

6 axes robotized cells learners train perfect system

Complete industrial packaging training system (Cartoning, Quality Control and Traceability)

Supply of 15 licenses of KukaSipm (optionnal), 3D simulation software of Kuka

Strong partnership between Kuka and ERM in education: organization of training courses ...

2 weeks training offered by Kuka in Villebon at the "Kuka college"

Robot guaranteed 2 YEARS

Calibration case included
