Recreational Vehicles

Over 30 Years Automating

The Builders of motorcycles, watercraft and more

With leisure vehicle sales at an all-time high, manufacturers are turning to automation to keep up with demand. Factory automation for recreational vehicles has faced a number of unique obstacles in the past. However, automation has not only solved those problems but has also added additional benefits, making it even more important. Robotic automation can increase productivity, quality and safety in the production of components such as chassis, frames, and engines parts. Robots can also reduce labor costs, waste and environmental impact.

Midwest Engineered Systems has experience developing and implementing factory automation systems that construct parts for motorcycles, RVs, motor boats and other recreational vehicles.

Recreational Vehicle expertise

Flywheel assembly Operation

Midwest Engineered Systems designed a fully automated multi-station press that has a part rate of one assembled part every 50 seconds. The following methods, components and technologies were implemented and integrated to provide a comprehensive solution.

Motor Assembly Line Automation

Midwest Engineered Systems integrated a modernized manual manufacturing process with a suspended conveyance system for the assembly of outboard motors. MWES provided this firm with an updated assembly line that retained the manual workforce but provided a safe and ergonomic process.

Assembly Automation with AGVs

Midwest Engineered Systems integrated an automation system using autonomously guided vehicles (AGVs) to eliminate the need to design and build complex conveyor systems. The AGVs would navigate a lengthy preexisting motor assembly process and would have to lift, carry and orientate outboard motors or long block engines throughout the build cycle.
