On May 6th, the four - day 2024 American International Automation and Robotics Exhibition (AUTOMATE 2024) was grandly held at the McCormick Place in Chicago. At this exhibition, Han's Robotics focused on high - frequency industrial application scenarios and mainly demonstrated applications in
CNC loading and unloading, automated welding, and high - load palletizing. Among them, the S30 high - load robot with a 30kg load and an 1800mm arm span made its first appearance in North America, attracting professional customers from all over the world to stop and visit for exchanges.
High - Frequency Application 1: CNC Loading and Unloading
According to GGII data, loading and unloading / handling is the main application scenario for collaborative robots, accounting for nearly 30%. Compared with manual loading and unloading operations, the Han's Robotics series of products have a repeat positioning accuracy of up to ±0.02mm. They have the advantages of stability, accuracy, and high efficiency and are a capable assistant for the automation requirements of
CNC machine tools. In addition, the collaborative robots such as Elfin and Elfin - Pro provided by Han's Robotics can also be used in combination with equipment such as composite robots and the seventh axis to achieve the effect of using both hands and feet and cross - regional material pickup and placement, enabling one robot to correspond to multiple CNC machine tools and complete the full - process automated loading and unloading operations.
High - Frequency Application 2: Automated Welding
Modern industry cannot do without welding, but traditional manual welding is not an easy job. Promoting the automation and intelligence of welding is an inevitable trend for the industry's upward development. The automated welding workstation based on the Elfin - Pro series of collaborative robots from Han's Robotics provides multiple combination methods such as magnetic attraction and movement and can meet the requirements of most welding application scenarios. In the field of ship welding, by choosing a lightweight collaborative robot body, the welding robot can be easily carried to the specified position for welding at the job site; it is easy to use. Elfin - Pro realizes integrated end - of - arm force control and has a self - developed welding process package. Teaching operations can be carried out through various methods such as dragging, pressing the buttons at the end of the robotic arm, and using the teach pendant, enabling ordinary welders to quickly master high - quality welding techniques.
Han's Robotics is compatible with mainstream welding machines and can also cooperate efficiently with laser vision weld tracking and arc tracking systems to make welding simpler and more efficient.
Interactive Experience: High - Speed Handling, etc.
Han's Robotics has accumulated profound knowledge in motors, reducers, vibration suppression algorithms, and motion control. At the exhibition site, without any clamping, a tall glass filled with beverage was placed flat on the end tray of the Elfin series of collaborative robots. When the robotic arm was running at high speed, the tall glass remained motionless and delivered the beverage to the audience in an extremely stable and elegant manner. At the Elfin - Pro integrated end - of - arm force control experience booth, combined with the self - developed force control algorithm, the audience only needs about 3N of dragging force (equivalent to the gentle touch and push of a soft pen) to achieve a more compliant end - of - arm dragging effect.
As a manufacturer in China that has fully mastered the core and key technologies of collaborative robots, Han's Robotics has a mature and serialized collaborative robot product system, with loads covering 3 - 30kg. It is one of the main forces helping the flexible upgrade of production lines. At present, Han's Robotics has effectively covered more than 40 industry scenarios and more than 60 process scenarios, and its products are widely used in more than 100 countries and regions.
