ABB focus on “lean robotization”

Abstract

Outlines ABB Robotics new manufacturing philosophy of “lean robotization” based on early partnership between customer and supplier and a detailed knowledge of the customers application requirements. Examines two new ABB robots, suitable for a wide variety of functions, and operated by a new controller which uses a windows‐style user interface to simplify programming and process tuning. Describes some of the new features of the control which are claimed to bring major benefits in productivity and quality.
