We have the industry’s widest range of paint robots to boost operations and keep workers safe by automating tasks that could potentially expose them to harmful chemicals.
Automating end-of-line processes, such as labelling, packing and palletising, with high-speed and adaptable FANUC robots, improves overall efficiency and consistency in the final stages of plastic manufacturing.
FANUC employs this same state-of-the art CNC technology in ROBOSHOT machines to provide an unrivalled electric injection moulding solution. The results are huge versatility, utmost precision of movement and extremely short cycle times to produce larger quantities of consistently high-quality parts.
With its extensive range of options ensuring pristine surfaces and incredible accuracy of parts, ROBOCUT stands out as the perfect all-rounder for the plastics industry. FANUC’s wire EDM demonstrates extremely high accuracy on tooling, such as moulds. The machine's incredible levels of repeatability further guarantee that the same high standards are consistently obtained.
In the food packaging industry, production must be fast, reliable and clean. No wonder Poloplast chose FANUC's ROBOSHOT injection moulding machines. In addition to immediate efficiency improvements and energy savings, the advanced software features on the machines allow the company to further monitor and increase productivity while expanding its range of biodegradable products.
High-volume plastics parts; thin walls; zero defects; short automotive lead times; demanding energy efficiency requirements. A growing number of manufacturers are combatting these common challenges by investing in ROBOSHOT high-performance, all-electric injection moulding machines from FANUC. Among their number is SIMON Plastics.
There are numerous plastic injection moulding machines available on the market, but most modern manufacturers seek a core set of key attributes based on flexibility, energy efficiency and performance. As a result, the highly capable FANUC ROBOSHOT, with its potential for rapid tool changes and all-electric low energy consumption, is a proven choice for any manufacturer of plastic products looking to become more competitive and gain market share. Among those able to provide testimony is Hungary-based Viskiplast.
