Flexible Manufacturing System for education

Yornew’s FMS solutions are designed to introduce this advanced manufacturing capability to vocational and engineering classrooms. By emulating real world industrial automation and production applications found in modern plants in the classroom, educational programs can train skilled workers to be industry ready.

The flexible mnufacturing system (FMS) exposes students to automation and industrial applications by combining CNC technology with robotics and materials handling. Students develop and edit programs,record precise robotic positions, accurately mill parts, and synchronize mill and robot operation. Students gain “virtual hands-on” experience in CNC and robot programming, especially in I/O commands.

These packages can be used as a stand- alone workcell, or integrated within a CIM system. The robot tends the CNC machine and performs other part manipulation and/or assembly tasks. When used in a CIM system, the robot loads and unloads parts to and from the CIM conveyor. The robot is mounted on a linear slidebase for mobility and larger work area.

Machine tending packages are stand-alone workcells. Typically a robot tends a CNC machine and performs other part manipulation and/or assembly tasks.This is flexible manufacturing cell setup that includes a 6-axis robot, a machines ( CNC Lathe) and storage cells. Configuratin supports advanced curriculum as well as work projects that can be completed using the configuration.
