Cobot Reponds to Unexpected Business Change and Builds Employee Skills

In the contract machining and fabrication business, change is a fact of life. For Wisconsin-based WST Fab, a large customer order unexpectedly fell through on the day the company received its new UR10e cobot-based machine tending system that was specifically designed for that part. But because UR Certified Systems Integrator (CSI) PCC Robotics focuses on “handing over the keys” to the customer with full knowledge transfer, the WST Fab team didn’t miss a beat. Within days, they were able to reprogram the cobot, adapt the versatile fixturing, and 3D-print new grippers, and can now run a dozen different parts on the system.
