Challenge
Manual dispensing required skilled labor, exposed workers to potential skin irritation from prolonged sealant contact, and was physically demanding due to the large size of windshields. The company sought an automated solution that was user-friendly and efficient.
Solution
Patvin Engineering implemented a robotic solution using a Universal Robot UR10 with a GRACO dispensing system. By synchronizing robot speed with sealant flow, the system achieved the required bead size tolerance. This automation eliminated the need for manual labor, freeing up employees for higher-value tasks.
Results
- Full automation of the dispensing process
- Achieved target bead size and profile consistency
- Increased efficiency in the glazing operation
- Improved worker safety and job satisfaction by eliminating strenuous tasks
By adopting this robotic solution, the vehicle manufacturer significantly enhanced its production process while creating a safer and more productive work environment.
