Laser cutting of body panels, coating of headlamp lenses, milling of composite front aprons, high tech assembly of ABS systems, zero-defect production of airbags – the scope for deploying robots in the areas of bodywork and safety is almost endless. Stäubli robots are proving their worth in all conceivable applications where there is no room for error. The strengths of the four-axis and six-axis machines – precision, dynamics, trajectory control and reliability – are the prerequisites for viable solutions in these sensitive areas.
