Automation is also playing an increasingly important role in television manufacturing. At TPV Displays Polska in Gorz\u00f3w Wielkopolski, Poland, 22 Kuka autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are now ensuring fully automated material transport between the warehouse and assembly lines.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The decision to integrate mobile robots into the production process was driven by the need to increase production stability and transparency. Kuka has installed a fleet of 22 AMRs that are in operation around the clock. These robots are programmed to efficiently move materials between different production stations without human intervention.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The benefits of this technology are diverse. By automating material transport, human labour can concentrate on more complex tasks that require higher qualifications. This not only leads to an improvement in productivity but also to a reduction in errors that could arise from manual handling.<\/p>

Seamless interaction of robots<\/h2>\r\n<\/div>\r\n

Even before the introduction of mobile robots, the company relied on stationary industrial robots \u2013 meaning they were firmly anchored to the factory floor. Today, both systems work together, ensuring a reliable supply chain for production. \u201eThe interplay between stationary robots and AMRs increases the efficiency of supplying the assembly lines, enhances flexibility, and integrates material flow and storage into a high-performance overall system,\u201c says Grzegorz Benda, Technical Director at TPV Displays Polska.<\/p>\r\n

Smart software for plannable processes<\/h2>\r\n<\/div>\r\n

The integration of mobile robots was carried out by automation specialist Saicon. A central software controls the entire robot fleet, assigns transport orders, monitors operations in real-time, and optimises routes and utilisation. Thanks to inductive charging, the robots work virtually continuously in 24\/7 operation. \u201eThe seamless integration of the new technology into the existing TPV processes was the central challenge. Our solution fully automated intralogistics and made it reliably plannable,\u201c explains \u0141ukasz Sobczak, Head of the Software Development Team at Saicon.<\/p>\r\n

Greater transparency and future security<\/h2>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n

The status of the entire robot fleet can be viewed at any time. The data gathered helps to specifically analyse processes and continuously optimise them. At the same time, the system is designed to be flexibly adaptable to future requirements. From Kuka's perspective too, the project demonstrates the potential in the technology: \u201eThe implementation proves that autonomous mobile robots can already increase production stability today \u2013 through reliable processes, greater transparency in material flow, and better control of intralogistics complexity,\u201c says Mateusz Nowakowski, AMR Business Developer at Kuka Polska. This clearly shows how automated material transport supports companies in making their production stable, efficient, and future-proof in the long term.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
