ZDT (Zero Down Time)

Share
A robot breakdown can cause significant system production down time. FANUC Zero Down Time is an IoT solution designed to eliminate unforeseen production stoppage and enhance FANUC robot performance. ZDT collects and analyses data to track each robot’s overall health and maintenance requirements while running production. ZDT provides early notifications if action is required to prevent unexpected down time.

Eugster/Frismag

Fully Automated Assembly of Coffee Grinders

In the manufacture of popular household appliances such as coffee grinders, a number of prerequisites determine production success. For instance, only clearly structured, efficient and target-orientated processes will result in the required levels of production reliability. Achieving this ambition becomes significantly more realistic using automation, as market leader Eugster/Frismag AG can testify following its adoption of 14 FANUC LR Mate industrial robots and FANUC ZDT (Zero Down Time), which now enable the continuous automated assembly of a coffee grinder every 7 seconds.
