Process Overview
This project involved the introduction of automated loading/unloading to ensure uniform heat treatment of the carrier mid-planet, a key component of automotive transmissions. The client implemented automation to address several issues arising from the previously manual process, particularly the increased defect rate and inefficiencies caused by workers. Hyundai Robotics' HH050 six-axis industrial robot was utilized for this purpose, automating various tasks such as product stacking, pin insertion, and tray placement, ensuring high productivity and stability.

Workflow
| STEP 1. | Product loading part: Manually place the mid-planet on the loading jig, and place 20 products per jig on the 8-segment index table to secure up to 160 product cartridges. |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | Pin insertion part: The pins for loading are supplied and aligned through the parts feeder and placed on the mid-planet using a single-axis robot + air chuck combination. |
| STEP 3. | Loading part: Loading the mid-planet with the pin inserted, and use the servo-type to precisely control the position of the mid-planet according to its thickness. 2 sets are applied to prevent bottlenecks from occurring even when the laminated product is being discharged. |
| STEP 4. | Tray placement part: Using a 6-axis industrial robot, the loaded products are placed on a tray dedicated to heat treatment, 9 sets of fully loaded products are placed every 60' radius, and when the 360' work is completed, the worker uses a hoist to eject them with the tray, completing one cycle. |
Features
Securing customer-specific layouts, fully automating pin inserts and loading operations, and securing a fast and stable production capacity of 720 pieces per hour.
Results
| Client Feedback | By automating the process, we were able to reliably produce 720 products per hour, significantly improving overall work speed and productivity compared to manual labor. By allowing robots to handle the repeatability and precision of the work, we significantly reduced the defect rate and minimized errors. |

A House Built by Robots?! Space Factory Automates Modular Housing Window Assembly! ๐ ๏ธ๐
Project Overview This case marks Korea's first automated solution for modular housing window assembly, combining a KUKA industrial robot, a custom-designed robotic gripper, and a High Payload Track Motion system. Space Factory introduced this automation system to reduce construction costs and ensure consistent quality in modular housing production. Background & Objective Traditionally, skilled workers manually assembled window frames on-site, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive. Meeting diverse client requirements also demanded a large workforce. In addition, the wide and complex work environment made real-time monitoring and process control difficult. The goal of this project was to automate the window assembly process to significantly reduce work time, establish a standardized production system for consistent quality, and enhance process management through real-time production monitoring.
Automated automotive battery palletizing: Safely stack batteries weighing over 60kg with the YASKAWA GP225 ๐ช
This solution automates the repalletizing process for Atlas batteries produced by Hankook & Company for export. Due to the diverse import pallet specifications, customer-specific palletizing patterns, and product types, the total number of possible scenarios exceeds 200. The goal is to standardize these scenarios and ensure line stability by supporting a throughput of 10 pallets per minute for medium-sized batteries and 6 pallets per minute for large-sized batteries. [Pallet Feeder & Pallet Conveyor] This solution allows for the use of up to five different pallet types per country, ensuring a smooth 10-stack logistics cycle. Destacked pallets are transported to the battery palletizing position and aligned simultaneously. Completed pallets are transported to the discharge position. [Battery Sorter] Batteries fed inline are automatically sorted into 1st, 2nd (series/parallel), and 3rd layers according to the preset palletizing pattern. The robot then discharges the batteries, repeating the initialization process. [Robot Palletizer] Once aligned, the batteries are picked and placed at the palletizing position on the conveyor, repeating the pick-and-place process according to the specified location and number of layers. Honeycomb feeds are automatically inserted into each layer according to the settings. [Honeycomb Feeder & Sorter] Automatically sorts and inserts honeycombs into each layer of NO-BOX batteries.
