AMR logistics robots introduced to manufacturing factory ✨ Logistics automation that quickly resolves even 1 ton of waste drbris (2 KUKA KMP 1500P logistics robots)
Process Overview
This case study demonstrates the installation of a KUKA KMP 1500P logistics robot at Bigwave Robotics (Marosol) to transport rollers and scrap debris within the space manufacturing facility. The KMP 1500P autonomously handles up to 1 ton of scrap debris over a 1.2 km distance and automatically transports heavy-duty roller modules weighing up to 1 ton. Furthermore, sensors embedded in the KMP 1500P enabled the development of an unmanned system capable of safely transporting heavy-duty materials.
Project Background and Purpose
- Automated unmanned transport using autonomous robots
- Robots perform simple, repetitive tasks
- Safe operation of heavy-duty products using various sensors
- Remote control and monitoring using SOLlink
Components
| Robot | KUKA KMP 1500P *2 |
|---|---|
| Peripherals | 2 automatic robot charging stations; 1 manual robot charging station; 1 hardware PC for KUKA robot server; 1 license for KUKA robot server; 2 SOLlink tablet controllers; 1 SOLlink server; 5 robot transport carts; 10 cart stations |
Workflow
| STEP 1. | Loading of carts in the departure area (loading area) |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | Work command via SOLlink (tablet) |
| STEP 3. | Loading carts in the departure area using a robot lift |
| STEP 4. | Transporting carts to the destination area |
| STEP 5. | Unloading carts using a robot lift |
| STEP 6. | Setting automatic charging during non-work hours |
| STEP 7. | Charging |
| STEP 8. | Waiting for work after recovering to the preset battery level |
| STEP 9. | When robots cross, give way to the robot with priority and then cross (priority granting criteria: order of work commands) |

A Robot-Built Home?! SPACE FACTORY : Automation of window assembly for modular houses! 🛠️🏠
Process Overview This deployment is the first domestic solution that automates modular housing window-frame assembly by combining KUKA industrial robots, a custom-designed robot gripper, and High Payload Track Motion. SPACE FACTORY introduced this window-frame assembly automation system to reduce construction costs and to produce modular housing with consistent quality. Project Background and Objectives In the existing operation, skilled technicians assembled sash frames manually, which required long working time, and significant manpower was needed to respond to diverse customer requirements. In addition, due to the wide work environment and the complex robot operating environment, real-time monitoring was difficult, creating limitations in process management. The objective of this project is to dramatically reduce working time by automating the window-frame assembly process, build a standardized production system to ensure consistent quality, and maximize process management efficiency through a real-time production monitoring system.
