Material Handling
At ComTech, we specialize in transforming material handling challenges into streamlined, efficient, and cost-effective operations. Our robotic solutions are engineered to handle repetitive and strenuous tasks—from precise pick-and-place and high-speed sortation to heavy-duty palletizing and seamless machine tending—allowing your human workforce to focus on more complex, value-added activities.
Typical Applications include:
-Machine Tending
-Palletizing & Depalletizing
-Pick & Place
-Bin Picking
-Assembly
Machine Tending
- Loading and Unloading: Robots load raw materials and unload finished parts from machines such as CNC mills and injection molding machines.
- Part Inspection: Robots can be integrated with vision systems to inspect parts for defects after a machining cycle.
- Assembly: In some cases, a robot can perform light assembly tasks in conjunction with machine tending, such as fitting components together or applying a sealant.
- Press Handling: Robots are used to transfer parts between presses in a stamping or forging line.
- Bin Picking: Using advanced vision systems, robots can pick randomly oriented parts from a bin to feed a machine.
Palletizing
- High-Speed Throughput: Automate your end-of-line packaging with systems optimized to meet your cycle time requirements, significantly boosting production output and efficiency.
- Versatile Material Handling: Our robot tooling can be designed to handle a wide range of products, including bags, boxes, and various other containers, providing a flexible solution for your specific needs.
- Seamless Integration: Fully integrate with your existing production lines using custom conveyors to route products and pallets to and from the robot for a continuous workflow.
- Flexible and Adaptable Systems: Easily switch between different products and pallet patterns with intuitive operator controls. Our systems are built to handle multiple product types, allowing you to quickly adapt to changing demands without complex changeover.
- Enhanced Product Traceability: Ensure complete quality control with integrated barcode readers for tracking every product that moves through the system for improved inventory management and accountability.
- Complete End-of-Line Automation: Go beyond stacking. Our systems can be equipped with AMRs for automated shrink-wrapping to secure pallets for storage or transport, providing a single, comprehensive solution.
