Key Features and Benefits

Versatility for Different Part Geometries

The FANUC Robotic Cell offers unparalleled versatility by adapting the grinding process to various part geometries and materials. The system’s grinding units are designed with configurable settings, making it suitable for a wide range of faucet body shapes, including bath-shower bodies, faucet handles, and other bathroom fixtures. This flexibility is achieved through:

  • Quick Setup: The grinding units are easily configured for each part, significantly reducing setup times. Operators can quickly change the contact wheels and adjust the machines to accommodate different part sizes and shapes.

  • Adapted Layout: The system’s layout can be tailored to process large parts, ensuring that the grinding units can reach all necessary surfaces of oversized components without sacrificing precision or surface quality.

  • Specific Configurations: The system allows users to select and adapt the configuration of each grinding unit, ensuring that the right tools and settings are used for each specific part geometry.

These features ensure that the FANUC Robotic Cell can handle a diverse array of parts with varying sizes and shapes, making it suitable for both mass production and customized orders.

Grinding Process: Homogeneous Surface Finish

The grinding process is executed with 100% surface coverage, guaranteeing that every inch of the faucet body receives uniform treatment. The FANUC robotic system uses highly precise grinding techniques that result in:

  • Homogeneous Finish: The system ensures an even and flawless surface finish, removing any imperfections, burrs, or inconsistencies. The precision of the FANUC robots ensures that the faucet bodies have a perfectly smooth surface, which is essential for the aesthetic appeal and functionality of the product.

  • Surface Quality: The grinding process provides a finish that meets high-quality standards, including those required for luxury bathroom fittings, where appearance and texture are key selling points.

The versatility of the grinding units ensures that parts with intricate geometries, such as faucets with threads or detailed contours, can be processed without any loss of finish quality.

Customized HMI Software for Full Control

The Custom HMI (Human-Machine Interface) Software is a critical component of the FANUC robotic system, providing operators with total control over the production parameters. Key features of the software include:

  • Real-time Adjustments: The software enables operators to make instant adjustments to the system’s settings, optimizing the grinding process based on real-time data and feedback from the robots. This flexibility ensures that any variation in part geometry or surface requirements can be addressed quickly and accurately.

  • Remote Assistance: The HMI software allows for remote diagnostics and support, enabling service technicians to troubleshoot issues or assist with machine configuration without being physically on-site. This reduces downtime and improves system reliability.

By providing full visibility and control over the grinding process, the HMI software ensures that the system runs efficiently, with minimal intervention needed from operators.

Smart Calibration System for Accuracy

The Smart Calibration System is another standout feature of the FANUC robotic cell. This system includes:

  • Integrated Measuring System: The measuring system continuously monitors the position and alignment of the workpieces during the grinding process, detecting any deviations in fastening or alignment.

  • Automatic Modification of Robot Trajectories: If deviations are detected, the system automatically adjusts the robot’s trajectory to ensure that the grinding process remains accurate and consistent. This helps maintain tight tolerances and ensures that each part meets the required specifications.

The Smart Calibration System enhances the precision of the robotic cell, ensuring that even complex, multi-faceted parts are ground to perfection. It also minimizes the need for manual intervention, further improving the system’s efficiency.

Offline Programming to Minimize Downtime

One of the challenges in high-volume manufacturing is minimizing downtime during setup or when switching between different production runs. The FANUC Robotic Cell addresses this issue with offline programming, which allows operators to program the system without interrupting production. Key features include:

  • Offline Programming Software: The system comes with specialized software that enables users to program the robot's movements and settings without halting the grinding process. This means that programming can be done in parallel with production, reducing idle time and increasing overall productivity.

  • Minimized Downtime: The ability to program offline helps maximize production uptime, ensuring that the system is always running at full capacity, even when setting up for new tasks or configurations.

Offline programming is particularly beneficial for manufacturers with frequent model changes, as it reduces the time required to reconfigure the system between different products.

Automatic Loading and Unloading Palletizer

The FANUC Robotic Cell features an automatic loading and unloading system, which includes:

  • Double Palletizing System: The system uses a double palletizing mechanism to facilitate continuous operation. One pallet is used for loading parts, while the other is used for unloading finished products. This arrangement allows for seamless interchange of parts without any delays or interruptions in the grinding process.

  • Continuous Working Cycle: The automated palletizing system ensures that there are no bottlenecks in the workflow, enabling a smooth, uninterrupted production cycle. This results in increased throughput and reduces the time needed for manual intervention.

By automating the loading and unloading process, the system enhances overall efficiency and frees up operators for other tasks, contributing to reduced labor costs.


Applications and Industries

The FANUC Robotic Cell with 4 Grinding Units is particularly effective for processing parts such as:

  • Faucet Bodies

  • Faucet Handles

  • Shower Heads

  • Bathroom Fittings

  • Sanitary Fittings

  • Door Handles and Knobs

The system is ideally suited for high-volume production environments where consistency and speed are essential. It is also highly adaptable, making it suitable for manufacturers that produce customized or low-batch runs of various products.


Conclusion

The FANUC Robotic Cell with 4 Grinding Units offers manufacturers a highly efficient, precise, and versatile solution for grinding and finishing faucet bodies and other bathroom fittings. By integrating advanced robotics, smart calibration, customizable programming, and automated loading/unloading systems, the cell ensures maximum productivity, minimal downtime, and superior surface finishes. This system is ideal for manufacturers looking to streamline their grinding processes while maintaining high standards of quality and efficiency. The flexibility, precision, and automation provided by the FANUC robotic system make it a vital asset in modern manufacturing environments.
