The focus of the collaboration with RobCo was on implementing a night and weekend shift and reducing
Employee absences due to illness. In addition, the company aimed to make robots as flexible as possible on various machines
Connect. This had the profitable side effect that employees were increasingly focusing on quality control and preparing for
Were able to concentrate on subsequent orders while the robots were equipping the machines.

Increasing Efficiency and Machine Utilization

‍

As a result of these measures, individual parts could be produced during the day and serial parts could be manufactured at night, resulting in a significant
Led to an increase in efficiency and utilization of production facilities. Thanks to the flexible use of robots on different machines, machine utilization has been increased by three to four times since implementation. This resulted in significant cost savings.

“Thanks to RobCo, we can multiply our machine workloads and thus offer attractive hourly rates for series parts on the market. Due to the possibility of multiple zero points, RobCo can be used flexibly on various machines. These results in cost savings during retrofitting.”
