Robot Integration

Robotics integration uses robotic systems in strategic areas to perform automated tasks. Robotics system integrators like JS Controls analyze your manufacturing, material handling, or inspection lines; determine which areas could be improved; and install the automation technology in those areas. There are typically two main applications for robotics integration — industrial robotics and collaborative robotics.

Industrial robotic systems are machines designed to complete repetitive actions in industrial settings. These robots can be multi-axis robotic arms, automated guided vehicles, automated cells, or conveyance. Modern advancements have made these systems flexible and scalable. As demand grows, peak seasons change, or products change, you can easily reprogram your robotic systems. Because of this scalability, flexibility, and accuracy, automation integration is growing in low- to high-volume production lines worldwide. Typical industrial robot applications include:
  • Material handling
  • Assembly
  • Conveyor Tracking
  • Palletizing
  • Inspection and testing
  • Dispensing
  • Material removal

Collaborative robotics integration involves installing robots and other automation technology alongside employees to complete tasks. Collaborative robots — also known as cobots — can be challenging applications. Employees need different considerations for safety and ergonomics when near robotic arms to avoid accidents or injuries. Thus, companies must work with experienced integrators for planning and consultation before integrating collaborative robotics.
