The number of robots on display at manufacturing trade shows continues to rise. At EMO 2023 in Hannover, Germany, FANUC presented a simulated automated manufacturing cell producing aluminum electric vehicle (EV) inverter cases.
This production cell demonstrated the machining of these parts part in four and five axes using two Robodrill α-DiB Plus series machining centers including turning operations using DDR-HSiB high-speed rotary tables.
The cell also included a FANUC M-20iD/25 robot on a linear rail for machine tending, an AGV (automated guided vehicle) for exchanging raw and finished part pallets, a Renishaw Equator gage for part measurement, and sensor and connectivity technology to provide feedback from the gage to the machine tools for process control.
