Conveyor Bed and Guard Processing System

More Capacity in Less Space

This fully integrated manufacturing cell increased capacity while reducing floor space requirements by 80%, consolidating raw sheet handling, press brake forming, and robotic welding into a single end-to-end production flow.

Benefits

Saving Space

Consolidating multiple processes into a single integrated cell reduced Hytrol's manufacturing footprint by 80%.

Increased Capacity

End-to-end automation delivered a 50% increase in production capacity.

Improved Quality

Robotic welding and vision-guided handling deliver consistent results across every component.

+50%

Increased Capacity

System Components

  • A robot with a custom-built vacuum EOAT handles large raw sheet panels from inbound through each processing stage, managing heavy, unwieldy material without manual intervention or overhead crane dependency.

  • A robotic press brake tending cell handles both conveyor bed panel forming and channel forming operations, with the robot managing all part loading, positioning, and unloading across multiple bend programs.

  • Robotic welding cells join formed components into finished conveyor bed and guard assemblies with consistent weld quality and repeatable cycle times across every unit produced.
