Glidewell Laboratories optimizes its production by 9 hours with cobots_Indonesian sub

Glidewell decided to try out a UR5 robot. It was easily programmed to pick a crown from the dispensers, place it in the milling lathe, pick it back out, and place it on a conveyor after the 10 minute milling cycle. By communicating with a vision camera, the robot was programmed to move on to a different shade if dispensers run out, ensuring fluent production. Overall, this dynamic, single part flow has cut the production-cycle time from 27 to 18 hours, saving two milling operators per shift. For more details: https://www.universal-robots.com/case...
