Kurtz Ersa Assembly Systems
Always well solved: Kurtz Ersa workstation systems
When fully automated production solutions are not feasible, yet efficiency increases, quality improvements and process stability are needed, semi-automated or manual workstation solutions from Kurtz Ersa Automation are the right choice.
The type and equipment of the workstation system are defined by the cycle time to be adhered to, the quality level to be ensured and the specific production method of our customers. “One fits all” may be feasible in some areas – but our focus is on understanding the individual requirements of our customers, translating these into customized concept designs and implementing the required workstation solution in close coordination with the production managers. Whether assembly activities are performed at the respective workstations or quality inspections are carried out, the experienced system designers at Kurtz Ersa have the right solution for every requirement.
Setting cornerstones in requirement engineering
During the initial exchange, the first cornerstones must be set as part of the requirement engineering. Is a single workstation solution required, for example, because the available space at the place of use is limited? Or are you aiming for a system in a fleet network, in which several workstations arranged in chronological dependency are integrated? Kurtz Ersa actively supports the further process design with the experience gained from years of system consulting. Which type of component supply is suitable? What should be considered when designing a specific assembly device? Where should the end product storage be located from an ergonomic point of view and where to put assemblies that have been classified as NIO (short for: not-in-order) in an EOL check (short for: end-of-life check)? We keep track for you.
When designing workstations, the first thing to do is make some basic decisions.
- How much space is required, which ultimately determines the dimensions of the work table?
- Should the worker work in a seated, standing or flexibly changeable position?
- Is the workstation height to be flexibly adjusted electrically or manually?
- What is the organization and size of the subcomponent supply?
- What are the requirements in terms of workplace lighting?
- What points need to be considered in the electrical system planning?
- Does the planned process require an ESD-compliant implementation of the workplace system?
Furthermore, the optional equipment possibilities are almost unlimited. Does the customer want a fully automatic integration of his workstation system into a goods carrier circulation system with connected buffer storage and sensor-controlled working height adjustment? No problem. If the integration of screwdriving solutions, press processes or sealing ring applications is required, we will integrate the appropriate solution. Do you want to integrate a vision-based or pick-to-light worker assistance system? No problem either. If the traceability of production results is required, we integrate the appropriate tracing process.
Kurtz Ersa Workstation Systems - always a good choice!
Whether in the context of planning a new production process or revising existing processes to increase output, quality levels or efficiency – Kurtz Ersa workstation systems are always a good choice. And should a production interruption ever threaten, Kurtz Ersa Automation also integrates collaborative robotics into a production solution on request – including yours!
