Bet on industrial robots – 2020 summary in Alnea

When the crisis was hanging in 2019, we feared the collapse of bitcoin, the difficulties of Brexit and possibly customs wars. But no one expected the nightmare of a global epidemic like the one 100 years ago to return to the 21st century – schools, shops, museums and factories. Uncertainty about the future is the most unfavourable conditions for economic development. After all, Polish entrepreneurs have handled the situation quite well. Many companies have focused on robots, thanks to which they have implemented new machines and invested profiteerly in production.

 

Come back with shield

War time wishes to come back with a shield, not on the shield now have a double meaning. State aid proved to be needed due to the heavy burden of the tributes to Fiskus and the ESM. Our company benefited from the support which helped us survive the most difficult months.

New production lines/h2>

We could not complain about the lack of orders this year. Production lines, robotic stations and testers, which is basically the majority of our portfolio went to customers from all over Polish.

In 2020, the Alnea team made new implementations:

– 4 advanced factory visualizations

– 1 production line with robotic workstation

– 1 assembly line

– 1 repair line with industrial robots

– 5 production testers

We also visited 36 companies, prepared and executed many offers, testing solutions for our customers.

AiR Conference/

Our Conference – Automation and Robotics of Industry this year has already had its 3rd edition. Despite the restrictions and difficulties, we managed to organize a safe and interesting event, which was attended stationary by 72 people, and the online broadcast reached 20,000 (!) people on the day of the broadcast. The AiR conference is a meeting with the production companies of our region with distributors of automation, robotics. The best speakers presented fruitful robot implementations, the idea of Industry 4.0 in the factory of the future, digital kanban and improvements that give real savings.

 

 

Relief for robotics

We look forward to 2021. We are waiting for the promised relief for robotization. More and more small businesses are buying robots and implementing them on their own. This gives hope for the development of the Polish economy and increasing the potential of our production companies.

That’s why we have prepared a surprise for you – from January 2021 we will publish short videos in which we will present interesting solutions to the technological problems that we have had to face in our integrative career.

Tech me robot!

"Road to Success" Award

The culmination of our year-long struggle was the 1st prize in the Road to Success competition. The competition is implemented by the Agricultural Advisory Centre in Brwinow. The  award was presented with congratulations to Krzysztof Kamiński, President of Alne, by Andrzej Duda, President of the Republic of Poland himself.

The Marshal of the Province – Gustav Marek Brzezin, Voivode – Artur Chojecki also sent their congratulations. It is a great distinction and a commitment for the future.

New assembly line

Our new application is manual assembly line. We’ve completed our first line for this investor over a year ago. The second semi-automatic line was equipped with a robotized station – the scara robot and the six-axis robot were integrated so as to collect the glass and screw it to the lighting lamp holder. It’s nice to enter a hall so unified in terms of production machines and equipment.

 

One line, many products…

The line consists of 7 modular stations, which is equipped with a conveyor belt and a return conveyor. Each of station is prepared for specific operations that employees perform so that a  product is finished in the last position.

Dedicated stands, on which lamps covers are transported in cycles automatically between the stations.  Well calculated tacktimes ensure that all operations are well synchronized.

Mission Impossible Integrator

Alnea is a technology company that designs and manufactures production lines, assembly lines and robotic stations. We have already created many such production stations, among others for sectors such as:

automotive,

electronics industry

construction sector,

furniture industry

and other.

Automations - intralogostics/h2>

Alnea is also a distributor of mobile robots. Automation of supplies and intralogistics in a company is an important part of investment. AGV autonomous mobile robots deliver details, elements and collect goods and bring them to the warehouse. One map of the hall can be used to determine many routes and the ability to call the robot when it is needed. Customized construction means maximum efficiency and quick return on investment.

Production line - designing, building, implementing

If the machine you are looking for does not exist on the market – you can be sure that we will build it for you. We will come, get research the process, requirements and simply design a line that will meet your expectations. Do you want to produce faster, maybe more reliably or more precisely – write to us!

Modernization of assembly line for lightning frames

Good work is the best marketing. Our assembly lines are of interest to customers. We are currently modernizing the line we commissioned last year. There were basically two lines – one semi-automatic and the other with an additional robotic station with the “bypass” mode. This means that the glass can be mounted on the lamps by Omron robots (6-axis Viper and 3-axis Sara) or bypassing the work of robots in manual mode.

 

Investments in the time of virus

The best investment during the crisis? You don’t have to buy a new line, just add new functionality to the existing one. Alnea automates smart – our stations are so well thought out and designed that assembly of new products is possible! At the stage of creating the line, there was no new product – NANO lamps. The modularity of our solution allows not only for turning the new lamp, but also for flexible conversion.

How to simply modernize the assembly line?

We know how to easily modernize the assembly line! First, we modified the transport stands that position the lamps. We made small changes in the pinner and adjusted the glass pressure, which is one of the quality factors in production. We made changes to the code in the PLC and refined the vision system for process control.

The copy of the line about which we wrote HERE will also be equipped with new functionality.

Robotized assembly station within production line

A very important project in the history  of Alnea was the project of building a production line for the valves for the ventilation system of car seats. One of the most interesting points of the automated line was station 1, which was designed for four KUKA robots working with a rotating production wheel, where the process was kept up, that is, without stopping the wheel. This solution reduced production time by 40%. An additional benefit was the use of 4 instead of the 5 robots required by the Customer, which resulted in a lower station cost.
Another station presents the cutting process, which thanks to the use of a variable geometry stamp reduced the noise level by about 20 DB, which was one of the key requirements on the part of the customer.

 

Soldering robot

The next process on the line is a soldering process based on our solution – ZEUS. The process ends with a video inspection.

At the next station you can see the process of plasmaming or preparing the surface for the application of glue. Note that the second tool on the robot is a dispenser that precisely applies glue.

 

 

The workpiece then passes to the piston (these are components such as springs and rubber bands with a diameter of 3 mm). A robot equipped with 3 tools is responsible for the process of cutting and assembling components with each other and in the next step passes the detail for the second robot, which measures the resistance and after the process is completed, transfers the detail for further production.

 

Plasma station

A cover is mounted on the next station, which is delivered via a vibrating feeder. After the installation of the upper bodywork is completed, the part is transported again to the plasma-adhesive station. In this process, the upper body and the bottom body are connected with glue. According to the customer’s requirements, the adhesive can not be lowered into the lower body, which is why in the next production phase a UV lamp was used, which within 4 seconds hardens the applied layer of glue.

A very interesting and complicated station in this production string was a leak and flow testing station. The tests were carried out using atmospheric air and helium. I would add as a curiosity that helium leak testing was at the level of collecting individual atoms, that is, at an almost laboratory level (in the production cycle of 12 seconds). The measurement results were developed in a dedicated LabView-based application. After the tests have been completed, the detail goes to the last station, where the product marking process (OK/NOK) takes place and is armed with a so-called dumper and handed over to the operator as a ready-made valve for installation or integration into valve blocks.

Summing up 14 robots, 3 shifts, 7 days a week, a minimum of 300 products per hour, quality assurance thanks to 10 video inspection points.
