Go to application

During the application, individual components, in this case glass elements and aluminium plates, are assembled from a storage unit and glued two-dimensionally. After this, they are transferred back to a storage device. The resulting components are part of a special North German lamp. 

The problem

Due to the variability of the components in shape and size, a flexible system is required to implement the production processes. 
An additional challenge is the even application of the adhesive seam, since both the positioning and the quantity used are important here. Protruding adhesive seams would result in an increased post-processing process.


 

The solution

An igus room linear robot in combination with a suction pad and a dispensing unit from LOCTITE. The whole thing was achieved within a compact robot cell to protect the production process from contamination or unwanted manual intervention.
