Two MG400 Cobot Assist Shaft Sleeve Handling
Two compact MG400 desktop cobots transformed a precision machining process by taking over shaft sleeve loading and unloading. These high-accuracy cobots work in tandem, maintaining workflow efficiency while fitting into existing production spaces—without costly line redesigns.
Customer Challenge
Handling shaft sleeves manually proved to be inefficient, inconsistent, and physically demanding for operators. The process required repetitive loading and unloading, which led to fatigue, slowed cycle times, and increased the risk of quality issues. Additionally, the production line’s limited floor space left no room for traditional automation equipment, making it difficult to improve efficiency without a costly reconfiguration. These constraints created a need for a compact, precise, and easily deployable automation solution that could integrate seamlessly into the existing workflow.
The Solution
Two MG400 desktop cobots were deployed to manage the shaft sleeve loading and unloading process. The MG400 cobot loads raw sleeves into the machining station, while the other removes finished parts and passes them along. Their compact footprint allowed seamless integration into the existing line, and intuitive programming made setup and workflow adjustments quick and easy.
Discover the Power of the MG400
Compact, precise, and easy to program—the MG400 desktop cobot is built for streamlined automation in tight spaces. Whether you’re automating machine tending, assembly, or part handling, the MG400 delivers professional-grade performance in an affordable package.
