Industrial automation solutions provider FANUC UK has reported a record month for sales of ROBOSHOT in 2017, with 29 units sold in September.
In total, 12 customers placed orders for ROBOSHOT, FANUC’s plastic injection moulding machine, with total sales revenue reaching around €3.5million. Customers ranged from businesses in the medical sector, to the automotive and packaging industries.
FANUC’s ROBOSHOT machines are capable of delivering short cycle times and consistent, high-quality parts. As well as FANUC’s CNC controls, which ensure high-repeatability and precision, they also incorporate the latest artificial intelligence technology by FANUC, which reduces the likelihood of mould damage and thus significantly minimises downtime and mould repair costs.
FANUC ROBOSHOT machines also have the ability to monitor back-flow behaviour through the check valve, which is a standard feature. This allows the end-user to monitor and receive feedback on potential process variations due to the changes in behaviour of the melt quality and check valve performance.
ROBOSHOT machines are one of the most energy-efficient injection moulding models on the market, using 15 per cent less energy than comparable electric machines, and up to 70 per cent less than hydraulic models.
They can also be paired easily and quickly with FANUC robots as part of a fully automated manufacturing cell. FANUC has developed a series of standardised, quick and simple automation packages for the plastics marketplace with its strategic partner, Hi-Tech Automation.
FANUC UK’s sales and marketing manager, Andrew Armstrong, said: “This record month for ROBOSHOT sales demonstrates the successful growth of FANUC within the UK & Irish marketplaces, and will be complemented further by our attendance at Interplas this September and Fakuma (Germany) in October.
“FANUC’s ROBOSHOT product range is growing, as is the technology behind it. This gives FANUC customers greater choice and flexibility when specifying solutions for their immediate needs.
“These are exciting times for FANUC UK in both the UK & Irish plastics industries. We are now working to build on this growth as we enter Q4 of 2017, and will continue to develop FANUC’s electric machine technology into the number one choice for all users.”
