Rocker Arm Component Tray
| Problem: | ||
| Tight tolerances for shipping/processing trays were needed for robotic operation. | ||
| Solution: | ||
| A new part was engineered. We designed a new tray with ergonomic handles for manual handling at the supplier's plant, as well as locating holes for the "shot pins" in the client's automated equipment. Material selection allowed the trays to be molded within the tight tolerances required. |
||
| Benefit: | ||
| Less part handling The robot is able to pick up 6 components consistently due to the precise orientation and dimensions of the trays. Parts can be shipped and processed in the tray. |
