Industrial robots in the automotive industry
TRA-C Industrie is specialized in the design of industrial robots. Since their inception, industrial robots have been closely linked to the automotive industry. An industrial robot was used for the first time in 1962, at General Motors. From the 1970s onwards, large robotic systems were used in all productions of the automotive industry.
Automotive manufacturers and suppliers must now be able to react flexibly to new demands and changes in their production layout. Intelligent production facilities with flexible logistics systems are required. Robotic systems must be quickly adaptable, but must be as simple as possible to operate.
Which solutions does TRA-C Industrie offer to the automotive industry?
TRA-C Industrie offers you complete solutions. First, we study your needs. On this basis, our engineers develop special machines that meet your requirements. The construction in our premises allows us to fully control the manufacturing technologies used. We develop, assemble and program each of the specially designed machines. Then, the solutions are transferred to the customers’ sites, where our teams of technicians ensure the follow-up. As an internationally renowned manufacturer of industrial robots in the automotive industry, we take care of the installation of our solutions on site. We take care of the training of your employees so that they can use the robotic system safely and according to the rules of art.
Automation takes the burden off employees
Nowadays, it is of course important to react quickly and flexibly to customers’ wishes in order to remain competitive. But that’s not the only reason why more and more customers in the automotive industry are relying on TRA-C Industrie’s robotic systems. Robotic systems allow the transfer of dangerous or monotonous work processes from employees to an automated solution. The use of robotic systems is interesting and simple, while relieving employees of physically demanding tasks.
Whether it’s handling heavy components or excessive cycle times, automation brings relief to employees. Robots can handle faster cycle times than human employees while providing consistently high quality. Their use is already profitable for a small number of batches, as they make production ever more efficient and less costly. In the automotive industry, suppliers also rely on the excellent performance of robots.
Automation for automotive SMEs
Large companies are not the only ones to appreciate the benefits of automation. It is also in the interest of SMEs to adopt it, as it pays for itself very quickly. Its use saves a lot of time, and the quality of the parts always remains the same. TRA-C Industries’ industrial robotics are designed to be easy to use. In all cases, there is a complete training of your employees by our team of technicians. Thus, they are comfortable with the machine from the start. Often, robots also work side by side with human employees. In addition to a better working environment and better product quality, companies also benefit from a significant cost reduction.
Robotic solutions and software
With TRA-C Industrie, you get your complete solution from a single source. We design your system according to your requirements, install it and program it. Whether you are planning a new installation or want to optimize an existing one, TRA-C Industrie has the expertise you need. We can also provide you with our expertise in 3D visualization and simulation. Of course, our interfaces are always designed to be user-friendly and compatible with your systems.
TRA-C Industrie, designer and installer of complete robotic systems
Our vision is to make industrial robotics and industry 4.0 evolve by accompanying our customers in their growth. Our teams of engineers and technicians design and develop complete robotic solutions. Turnkey installations are designed on demand and are fully customizable. We study, design and manufacture automation equipment for the defense, e-mobility and railway sectors. Our experts are at your side from process planning to employee training and after-sales service.
With industrial robot systems from TRA-C Industrie, you benefit from significantly reduced processing times, consistently high welding quality and cost advantages that are already noticeable for small series. This allows you to respond flexibly to your customers’ wishes. Unlike traditional manual welding, automated welding allows multiple operations to be performed at a single unit – it’s faster and the quality is the same for each part produced. To stay in the international race, car manufacturers need to make their production processes as time- and cost-efficient as possible, which can be achieved with such a robotic system.
