投资回报Automate Production
我ntroduction
通过视觉指导的机器人解决方案实现生产，并用视觉技术代替昂贵的僵化的机械程序会导致更灵活，更具成本效益的生产。可以减少瓶颈，具有“眼睛”的机器人提高准确性，并降低了资本费用，从而在很短的时间内节省了切实的成本。
降低资本成本
持久的节约成本和没有机器down-time-In the automotive industry pressure from overseas manufacturing is high and so it is critical that costs are kept down. In one particular customer application, damage to a tool in the tooling machine could cost up to $ 5,000 to repair, not to mention the scrap and machine downtime. By implementing a vision solution and eliminating costly tooling equipment, the customer saved money made his life easier.
Eliminating $ 5,000 repair jobs on multiple lines meant the company saw a durable return on investment within 6 months. What they saved on scrap and machine downtime boosted their bottom line and continues to have a positive effect financially.

Robots with “eyes” save money and make things easier—For a leading robotics manufacturer affordability is a key consideration when equipping robots with “eyes”. Cost justification is critical in this business and In-Sight® vision systems are much less expensive compared to traditional vision systems. This means that it is now possible to automate processes that were once cost-prohibitive. For example, in bin-picking applications, there are tangible labor savings and so most vision guided robotic applications have an ROI of less then a year.
对于美国的一位主要供应商而言，他们的平均人工成本约为每小时20美元。当他们实施视力指导的机器人解决方案时，他们将这些成本降低到每小时至少每小时至少15美元的每小时5美元。人力可以更好地利用，并且还有额外的奖金使他们能够在自己的国家保持制造业，同时仍然能够在世界市场上竞争。
Total estimated labor savings for one year: $ 160,000

Eliminate expensive mechanical equipment
Boost production by making it more flexible—By deploying In-Sight vision systems in their machines, a German laser machine manufacturer for the welding of small metal parts eliminated the need for clamping and positioning devices. This means a new flexibility in the operating method, with increased automation and a boost in production quality. Waste is reduced and production costs are cut.
我t costs much less for the company to equip each machine with a vision system then with expensive fixturing equipment. The company also got increased flexibility and much lower maintenance costs as a bonus allowing them to see a rapid return on their investment by eliminating expensive capital costs. On each of the machines the company saved approximately $ 2000 on costs and maintenance.

Reduce equipment costs
The ability of a Checker® vision sensor to self trigger a rejection station on a bottling line reduced the company’s equipment costs by 20%. The sensor identifies defective bottles and alerts the rejection station to knock defective bottles out of the line. The sensor also inspects for incorrectly placed caps, proper placement of tamper evident cap safety rings, appropriate fill levels, and other problems that can occur out of sight or under the caps. The need for extra parts or line equipment is eliminated greatly reducing costs and increasing both production speed and quality control.
