with Renishaw Inspection Probes
Flexxbotics announced advanced robotic machine tending compatible for in-line inspection with connectivity for the entire range of Renishaw inspection probes. Now, companies can enable robot-driven manufacturing with Flexxbotics using Renishaw to achieve precision quality with six sigma consistency and greater capacity.
Flexxbotics’ patent-pending FlexxCORE technology enables the robots to securely connect and communicate with Renishaw equipment. With Flexxbotics the robots receive closed-loop feedback based on automated inspection results enabling real-time adjustments to CNC machine programs for autonomous process control. With in-line inspection, Flexxbotics orchestrates the fleets of production robots in the smart factory to achieve continuous unattended operations enabling higher yields, greater throughput and increased profit per part.
Flexxbotics compatibility includes Renishaw’s standard-accuracy and high-accuracy machine tool touch probes including optical transmission probes, radio transmission probes, lathe probes, modular probes and hard-wired probes, as well as, Renishaw on-machine scanning probes with SPRINT technology. Flexxbotics is also compatible with Renishaw contact and non-contact advanced laser tool setting systems and broken tool detection systems.
Flexxbotics robotic workcell digitalization is the backbone of the Smart Factory, delivering robot-driven manufacturing at scale with autonomous process control for continuous operations. Flexxbotics’ SaaS/hybrid architecture runs both online and offline so production continues with or without internet access, and Flexxbotics works with existing business systems such as CAD/CAM, DNC, SCADA/HMI, IIoT, MES, ERP, PLM and others for comprehensive process integration.
A full set of bi-directional communications, transforms and routing capabilities are available in Flexxbotics for the inspection tools, robots, and machinery that are connected including loading programs, sending instructions, updating parameters and status awareness depending on the machinery’s capabilities so the robots drive the Renishaw equipment along with the CNC machines and other assets in the smart factory.
