PROJECT SPOTLIGHT

Bottle & Trigger Assembly Line

Project summary

A firm came to Midwest Engineered Systems looking to robotically automate a spray bottle picking and capping assembly line operation.

The Challenge

This firm had to cap spray bottles on a manual assembly line which required a large number of workers to operate. With a shortage of manual labor and the high costs associated with it, this firm turned to MWES to work out an automated solution.

The Solution

MWES provided a trigger and bottle assembly system that received filled bottles, sorted and located triggers for assembly, and torqued triggers to bottles within customer-defined specifications. It was also required to ultrasonically weld triggers to the bottles.

Materials such as Linmot linear actuators, custom conveyors, and dual servo feed-screw controls.  The final system allowed part assembly, part verification, tracking for trigger closure torque, 100% verification of all parts and efficient error recognition.

Impact to the Customer

The robot automation system MWES provided our customer greatly improved their throughput and production speed to one part every five seconds.

Midwest Engineered Systems has a wide range of experience in building robotically automated assembly systems. If you’re looking to improve your manufacturing throughput, we have the knowledge and experience to make the project a success.
