Fastlog AG uses FANUC robots for industrial polishing


Delegate physically demanding and monotonous tasks, such as removing old adhesive labels, polishing and packing, to industrial robots. The polishing robots needed to meet the company’s efficiency requirements and, in the case of the palletising robot, pack various awkwardly sized shrink-wrap.Get more news about high quality robot buffing machine,you can vist our website!

Solution: Install a FANUC M-20iA/10L robot equipped with iRVision and suction grippers to complete the palletising; install a FANUC M-10iA robot equipped with a Force Sensor to complete the polishing tasks.

Result: Palletising at Fastlog is now fully automated and despite fears of employee resentment due to concerns about potential job loses, PALETTI, as staff call the M-20, has proved a welcome addition to the team. Likewise, the polishing cells have proved to be a popular addition. As with palletising, in the past health-related issues frequently led to downtime. Now however, the industrial robot carries out the polishing process non-stop in a dedicated cell. Downtime is a thing of the past, with consistently high quality being maintained by the FANUC Force Sensor.
State-of-the-art companies can no longer afford to make compromises in terms of speed and quality. Automation of complex or even individual processes is a key to success in this area. For strenuous tasks, a robot is the perfect colleague, providing ready assistance to employees. At the company Fastlog AG in the Gwatt (Thun) plant, both FANUC robots of the type M-10iA and M-20iA/10L lend a helping hand towards extending the service life of electronic devices, even basic units such as modems, and afterwards the robots package them perfectly on pallets for customer shipping.

Fastlog AG is a company that was re-established in 2009 with over 100 years of tradition from the former PTT Group and currently employing 140 people in service and logistics of spare parts for its business customers. In this niche business, the objective is to increase the lifecycle even of basic used electronic devices such as modems or set-top boxes from the IT/telecommunications sector and to make them available to the market again, fully inspected and tested.

In fact, each device in the "Fastchecker" is tested and inspected in detail, polished, cleaned and newly packaged again. This "refurbishing" saves the manufacturers lots of money and ultimately reduces the burden on the environment. "Fastchecker" is a clear solution for the rapidly-growing demand in the Swiss market, and Fastlog revolutionises the after-sales business for electronic components and systems with this FANUC M-20iA/10L palletising robot, given the nickname "PALETTI" by its co-workers.
