Electronics and Consumer Devices

Mecademic robot arms are precise solutions for handling display screens, assembling connectors, building circuit boards, performing inspections, dispensing sealants or adhesives, and packing finished products.

Electronics and Consumer Devices

Automate the manufacturing of electronic devices, components, and other small industrial products for optimal efficiency. Testing components and products are critical to ensure quality and functionality. Our robots can be integrated with automated inspection systems to inspect components, perform functional testing, and provide high-quality output. They can also be used to manufacture electronics sub-assemblies with high precision. They easily integrate with your infrastructure, have low development costs, and save space with energy-efficient operation. Mecademic offers a cost-effective solution with fieldbus protocols, flexibility, and consistent output for a competitive industry.

Why choose Mecademic robot arms for automated electronics manufacturing?

01

Easily integrate robots into existing manufacturing infrastructure

In electronics manufacturing, there is an increasing need for reasonably priced robots that are reconfigurable to multiple product designs and interchangeable with human labour. Our goal is to give manufacturers flexibility with robots that are easy to integrate into their existing infrastructure. While most robotic solutions take time to implement, Mecademic robots can quickly interface with other equipment and fit into any work cell. Commission our robots to manufacture multiple products using the same production system and boost throughput without additional training or development costs. Pair them with flexible feeding systems to accelerate bin picking and ensure parts are presented in a structured way.

02

Improve production quality and yield

Electronics manufacturing is increasingly complex as components and circuits are becoming smaller. With the dawn of miniaturization, a common challenge in this industry is finding a solution that can handle tiny, delicate parts at high speeds while maintaining ultra-precise placement. Luckily, Mecademic robots are designed to meet these high precision and throughput needs. With a repeatability of 5 micrometers, Mecademic robot arms are the world’s most precise. You can be sure that they will perform every cycle identically, producing consistent and high-quality products and hopefully lowering the rate of customer product returns.

03

Quickly adapt to shorter product life cycles with modular robots

The electronics manufacturing industry is highly competitive, with new technology constantly being released. The resulting shrinking product life cycles require a manufacturing solution that is flexible enough to adapt to frequent product redesigns. Mecademic robots are modular, making them easy to reconfigure to multiple product life cycles and quickly switch between product variants. This reduces time to market and saves costs previously allocated to designing new manufacturing systems. If consumer demands change quickly, your manufacturing system will be easily redeployable, reducing your financial risks.

04

Lower ownership costs

In addition to coming at a reasonable price, our robots will lower your manufacturing automation costs over time. Since they are easy to integrate and let you use multiple industrial fieldbus protocols out of the box, development time and training costs will be a fraction of that of other automation solutions. Their reconfigurable design makes it easier to change products and batch sizes without additional development costs. This lets you perfect your product design before the robots go into production. In addition to being very energy efficient (consuming 30W for a typical motion cycle), they are tiny, which reduces factory and space-per-unit costs.

Choose the right Mecademic robot for your industrial automation needs

SCARA Robot

If your application contains small parts presented on horizontal surfaces, and if the parts can be inserted without reorienting them about non-vertical axes, then our SCARA robot is the perfect candidate for your robotic automated assembly application.

Meca500 Robot

In some automated assembly scenarios, our Meca500 robot arm is a better fit. Choose the six-axis robot if:

 

  • your application involves working with parts that are presented in different orientations (such as in 3D bin picking) or that need to be reoriented about non-vertical axes;
  • small tilting motions are required during the fitting process, even when parts theoretically remain horizontal;
  • your application does not have a horizontal mounting surface;
  • a tool turret end effector is used.
