Collaborative Robot Performs Clip Insertion with Visumatic Non-Threaded Fastener Installation System
This engineered automatic plastic clip insertion gear empowers our customer's cobot to get automation done.

VIM-700 Product Details: This automotive interior trim manufacturer began a push towards a more complete automation program working to create a common machine platform flexible enough for global facility deployment. Visumatic helped their team with this next generation assembly work cell combining a UR-10 collaborative robot with a Visumatic VIM-700 clip feeding and inserting system. The inherent labor saving gains are augmented with ergonomic advantages resulting from automatic clip handling with all sequencing managed by the Universal Robot controller.

Cobot Details:  The machine installs the clips in a predetermined order, monitors proper insertion depth, and logs each successful insertion to qualify the assembly. This unique mix of technologies allowed the group to move beyond traditional robotic automation barriers without the burden of a specialized programmer.
