Integrated Real Time Image Processing In Robotic Automation Line

Robotic automation systems includes higher production rates and increased productivity, more efficient use of materials, better product quality, improved safety, and reduced factory lead times. Higher output and increased productivity have been two of the biggest reasons in justifying the use of automation. Despite the claims of high quality from good workmanship by humans, automated systems typically perform the manufacturing process with less variability than human workers, resulting in greater control and consistency of product quality. Also, increased process control makes more efficient use of materials, resulting in less scrap. Despite all these advantages, the final product control is still carried out by workers. In this study, it is planned to prevent quality problems with a video processing that integrates with the robotic automation line in order to solve the final quality problem. This system, which controls the movements of the worker in the predetermined motion routes with the signals coming from the line. It aims to ensure that the products going to the customer are completely error free.

<p>Sales data of FY10 to FY 15 shows increasing of switch D-1 demand. In fulfilling the demand, budget of production have been allocated by the head company. In fact, there is gap between the budget and cost required by production department. The condition cause the capacity lower than the demand. It happened to FY16. The problem should be solved because it has bad impact to customer satisfaction. Based on the problem identification, the problem of lack of budget can caused by the wrong estimation of demand. Refer to that problem, company decide to find out the better method in forecasting of demand and assume that the mother company will determine the suitable number of budget to produce as much as demand. Several methods of forecasting have been considered and trend liner method is the best method for the company demand pattern. Lack of capacity at FY16 before will require the increasing of capacity in several next periods. Changing the manual line to be automation line is an alternative to overcome the capacity problem. The result of analysis is automation line is more efficient than manual line. It reduced the number of operator from 7 to 4 per line. Adding one automation line need 3 years to get payback with net present value $ 249,377.88, internal rate of return is 18.93% and profitability is index 1.62<br />Keywords: Payback Period, Net Present Value, Internal Rate of Return, Profitability Index</p>

Development of Revolutionary Automation Line for Meter Gauge

Almost four decades ago, Denso developed a pioneering high-speed fully automated line for meter gauges. In the years since, it has also developed several key production-line devices as production lines underwent dramatic changes. Denso’s original production line even now serves as a historically significant reference in the development of new production systems. We detail its development both for its historical value and as a guide to those now developing new process designs.
