How it’s Measured: Contact Measurement for Small Parts in Medical Devices
AVAILABLE ON DEMAND
Join New Scale Robotics and Universal Robots for this webinar. Quality Control is one of the most important parts in medical device manufacturing, but one of the last to be automated. Collaborative robots are transforming manufacturing and now entering into the quality space using technologies that automate contact measurement, data collection, sorting: all with a high precision and repeatability.
When you attend this webinar, you will:
- Understand how collaborative robots can be used within the Quality Control area
- Hear about the importance of automating contact measurement
- Review use cases and applications for medical device industry
- See live robot demonstration with automated gripper calipers
Webinar: Automating Manual Part Inspection with Collaborative Robots
ON DEMAND
Manufacturers are using collaborative robots to lower costs and reduce production errors in a wide variety of applications. Quality departments are often last in line to benefit from automation, even though they have many manual, repetitive and mundane tasks that are excellent candidates for automation.
Join us for this webinar to find out how a Q-Span Workstation and collaborative robots can help your QC department automate manual inspection tasks to increase inspection throughput, collect more accurate data and improve gage R&R. You will learn:
- How to use collaborative robots to automate QC measurement
- A detailed description of how the Q-Span System takes measurements, incorporating robotic pick-and-place
- How to qualify Q-Span Workstation tool capability for parts and processes in small-part manufacturing
