Overcoming Challenges: Our Solutions

The Problem

ZAGO Manufacturing faced an increase in customer demand for high-tech sealing fasteners and switch seals. With limited workers available in the New Jersey area, ZAGO’s management looked for a cost-effective and robust automated solution.

The Solution

A Universal Robots UR10e cobot arm equipped with Robotiq software proved to be the perfect fit for their needs. Since ZAGO manufactures precision parts for the aerospace industry, they appreciate how Robotiq’s Force Copilot ensures that the UR10e places each part precisely into the chuck.

  • Integrate: The synchronization with the CNC machine was machine, resulting in a 100% automated machine tending application.
  • Operate: The robot cell was made completely reliable for the unattended night shifts.
