Alapala
Group which has already using robotic technologies in welding, bending and
different fields for many years, proven its leadership in digital conversion
again with the commissioning of the first cobot in the manufacturing plant.
Equipped with artificial intelligence
based technologies, Cobots (collaborative robots) are distinguished from
traditional industrial robots with their ability of working with people safely
- in close proximity at the same enviroment.
Alapala manufacturing plant has been equipped with advanced production technologies including robotic welding, bending, and automated painting systems. Being the first collaborative robot at the manufacturing plant, the new cobot started its operation in June 2022.
The cobot has 12 different sensors which perceives any
close interaction, enabling the cobot to work with employees at the same working
environment. Operator’s safety is also assured by ‘Power and Force Limit’
technology that stops the cobot in case of any possible contact with employees.
The 6 axis movement ability of the cobot also provides a very high precision
and conformity for a wide variety of applications.
General Manager of Alapala Machinery Inc., Mr Gorkem
Suner declared that this was the first developed cobot project in the plant, and
will be followed by other cobot installations soon to be adapted for different
duties in production.
