SmartFAB Features
Modular concept to allow quick line setup
The SmartFAB modularises the parts supply, work transport and assembly head units required for various types of assembly.
Just connect the units you require to the base machine to create the optimal production line for your needs.
Current problems in assembly processes
Features automatic converters for various formats of CAD data.
You can verify program data offline before sending it to the production line.
Recording actions with macros is supported, which reduces the work required for opeartions tht are repeated often.
Dedicated Machinery
+ High productivity
– High costs and a lengthy debugging process due to the design
– Cannot support changes products or production processes
– Backup machines and spare parts must be kept in stock
As the lifespan of products decreases, investment costs become harder to cover.
Fuji’s SmartFAB can flexibly handle the changes to assembly processes used by shorter product lifespans and increased product variety
Faster and more accurate (twin head)
Vision processing to maintain high precision assembly
What’s required for assembly is not robot positioning or repeatability accuracy, but assembly accuracy for the target work.
SmartFAB is equipped as standard with a base camera and robot camera to check the position of work and perform the high speed and high accuracy correction needed to assemble with precision down to ±50 μm (3σ)*.
*Measured under conditions at Fuji
Cartesian robot capable of high speed and high accuracy
With a wide and clear assembly area, the SmartFAB robot can transport work and perform accurate assembly right across the movement region.
Twin head construction
Both a carrier head and a processing head can be set on the XY robot
The assembly area is an expansive 110 mm high
Both heads have an independent vertical axis and can work in tandem with each other
Faster and easier (modular)
Modular concept to allow quick line setup
The SmartFAB modularizes the parts supply, work transport, and assembly head units required for various types of assembly. Just connect the units you require to the base machine to create the optimal production line for your needs.
Compared to lines created with dedicated machines or many general purpose robots, debug and setup time is greatly reduced.
This really makes a difference when starting up new lines or changing products and allows you to get the maximum out of your investment.
Unit lineup
Each unit is intelligent and fully independent
Units interact with the machine base continuously as processes are performed
By conforming to the open interface, customers can make and attach their own units
