Robotize has implemented a GoPal solution at AVK Gummi in Denmark
Robotize has implemented a GoPal solution at AVK Gummi. The company produces high performance rubber components for various industry sectors at their facility in Låsby, Denmark.
AVK Gummi has implemented the Robotize GoPal solution as part of their LEAN and Industry 4.0 program. GoPal robots transport pallets with tools from the tooling department to different machines in the production area. This enables optimization of the tooling flow, thereby freeing up staff to stay at their machines instead of making runs to and from the tooling department. Robots are also used to move finished goods from the production area to the shipping department.
The project is the result of extensive dialogue with AVK Gummi - a company with a true interest in new technology and Industry 4.0 implementation.
AVK Gummi invited Robotize to test drive robots on their premises very early on in the GoPal product development phase, and this close cooperation has now led to the implementation of a full GoPal solution.
According to AVK Gummi Production Manager Kresten Krogh, plans are already in place to extend the cooperation even further: “We plan to implement further pallet stations, when the first stations have been fully integrated.”
