Programming robots, welding and PLC services
Robots
The use of robots has increased considerably over the last few decades. Among other consequences, this has led to much more efficient production processes, lower materials wastage, reduced costs and higher quality products. The predominant role played by robots in numerous applications and the speed, flexibility, precision and payload capacities they offer far surpass those of humans while at the same time making it unnecessary for human employees to perform repetitive or dangerous tasks. Robot manufacturers have realized that robots can be used in close proximity to human beings, provided the correct software and security measures are implemented, and this has led to the appearance of a new generation of much more capable multitask robots.
Robopro specialises in the programming, configuration and running of robots produced by the world’s best manufacturers, including Kuka, ABB, Fanuc and Comau. Fully aware that technological advances are being made every single day, our training procedures are continuously being updated, ensuring cutting-edge, high quality service AT ALL TIMES.
The work we have carried out in more than 50 projects all over the world has given us an in-depth understanding of the specific standards adhered to by each of the world’s leading automobile manufacturers, placing us in a perfect position to implement projects in the factories of such major brands as
Mercedes, VW, Jaguar, Land Rover, Ford, Opel and Seat.
We also work in the food and ceramics sectors, where product handling, palletising, depalletising and tasks with vision devices are of vital importance if processes are to be automated and costs reduced.
Welding
Spot welding is a pressure and temperature-based method of electric resistance welding in which the elements to be joined are heated to welding temperature by an electric current and then pressed together. It is usually used to weld together sheet metal with thicknesses of between 0.5mm and 3mm.
Thanks to the different projects we have executed for leading automotive manufacturers and their subsidiary companies, Robopro has extensive experience with all the principal welding control systems on the market (spot welding, arc welding, MIG/MAG welding, etc.). We have programming experience with the systems manufactured by Bosch, Serra, Fase, Fronius etc.
PLC´S
The particular design features of PLC´s make them suitable for a wide range of applications. This scope is continually widening thanks to the constant evolution of hardware and software aimed at satisfying all identified needs within the spectrum of their practical possibilities.
PLC´s are used mainly in plants and installations where there is a need for movement, control and/or signalling processes, covering everything from the various types of industrial manufacturing processes to industrial transformations, plant control, etc.
One of the advantages of PLC´s is that they make it possible to save time when creating projects: changes can be made at no additional cost. Also, since they are small and their maintenance costs are low, they save money in labour costs, allowing more than one machine to be controlled by the same system.
PLC´s play a key role in any process of automation, and Robopro‘s services therefore include their programming. We have extensive knowledge of the different programming languages, linear and structured programming, digital and analogue signal processing and, in general, all facets of application automation. The equipment we configure and programme includes products manufactured by Allen Bradley and Siemens.
