The metal industry is one of the most versatile industries and therefore predestined for robot-based automation solutions. It requires perfection down to the smallest detail and top performance in difficult, sometimes extreme working conditions. With solutions from KUKA, you master these requirements with sustainable success and measurable efficiency.
Whether general industry, automotive supplier or foundry and forging industry: their many facets make the metal industry one of the most demanding industries on the market. Thanks to our many years of experience we are able to serve the entire spectrum – and offer customized solutions for more efficient processes in metal processing in every area.
In the general industry we have seen an increasing demand for automation solutions in recent years and have responded quickly. Our cells and automation solutions are gradually replacing manual or less flexible automated processes.
We also offer innovative production methods such as friction welding, friction stir welding oder magnetarc welding. In doing so we produce high-quality connections of new materials such as aluminum and copper in cables.
The demands on aluminum castings have increased in terms of detail precision and accurateness. Particularly with regard to industry 4.0, new concepts for a smarter production are always in demand. In the foundry industry, our automation solutions are especially characterized by our networked control systems, an efficient casting process and configurable cells. We offer the entire spectrum in the foundry process – from automated core production, core handling and processing to casting machines and post-processing. These include above all deburring, sawing, drilling and milling.
The cooperation with KSM Castings shows that companies can make their casting processes significantly more efficient with KUKA solutions.
The company manufactures gearboxes for automotive manufacturers in the USA and is enormously profiting from a new, double pouring line from KUKA. The production speed of the aluminum castings from KSM Castings has therefore been significantly increased.
