2025-10-17

Project outcome

Capacity Enhancement: The single-shift production capacity of the automated production line has increased from 800 pieces to 2000 pieces, and the equipment utilization rate has risen from 65% to 88%.

Cost Reduction: The labor cost per unit product has decreased by 65%.

Yield Improvement: The qualified rate of product dimensions has increased from 92% to 98.5%, and the customer complaint rate has dropped by 70%.


Key technologies

1. Design of the automated extraction system:

By developing algorithms using PLC, industrial robots are driven to perform the automatic extraction and placement actions of swimming caps.

2. Innovative application of the robot's end gripper:

The project will adopt a robot end gripper specifically designed for swimming caps. This gripper can adapt to the softness and deformability of swimming caps, ensuring that they are not damaged during the grasping process. The gripper will employ adaptive control technology, which can adjust the gripping force according to the size and shape of different swimming caps, achieving precise grasping.


Project Background

With the continuous advancement of industrial automation technology, industrial robots are playing an increasingly important role in the production sector. Especially in the production of light industrial products such as swimming caps, the application of automation technology can significantly enhance production efficiency, quality and flexibility, reduce costs and labor intensity, and strengthen the competitiveness of enterprises.

Improving production efficiency: The application of automation technology can significantly increase the efficiency of swimming cap production.

Enhancing product quality: Through computer-set programs in automated production, the workflow becomes standardized, ensuring higher quality of the finished products. High-quality products can attract better and more valuable customers from major brands.

Reducing costs and labor intensity: Although the investment in automation equipment will increase production costs and management costs in the short term, in the long run, the popularization of automation will greatly reduce labor costs and time costs. Cap factories with high automation levels are more worthy of long-term cooperation with major customers.
