A smart lightweight robot supports you during specimen testing

During testXpo 2019 the smart lightweight robot was introduced to our visitors from all over the world. With the roboTest N lightweight robot, simple pick and place applications with a series larger than 10 identical specimens can be automatically fed and disposed of.

Smart lightweight robot for multiple function tests on pen injectors

Smart robotic testing system roboTest N for multiple function tests on pen injectors (DIN EN ISO 11608-5)

Advantages and features of the lightweight robot

Description

A typical configuration consists of:

Materials testing machine up to 20 kN
Tool for function tests, tensile or flexure test
Extensometer (optional)
robotTest N robotic testing system with integrated magazine for 20-30 specimens
Industrial controller with testXpert testing software and autoEdition3 automation software

Advantages

Due to the complete integration of the lightweight robot into the ZwickRoell software environment, robot programming knowledge is not required for operation.
The intuitive user interface for roboTest N in autoEdition 3 also ensures flexible use for future testing applications.
With force-controlled drive axes, the roboTest N requires a smaller installation location than conventional industrial robots, while maintaining the same level of safety.

Typical applications for the lightweight robot roboTest N

Testing of autoinjectors

The lightweight robot takes the autoinjector from the magazine and positions it in the testing machine.

Testing of syringes

In the automated test, both the push-out force and the friction force of the syringe can be determined.

Testing of plastics

With the roboTest N testing system, testing of small series can be automated.

Testing of springs

The lightweight robot positions the spring into the testing machine for the compression test.

Interesting applications

roboTest for medical testing

A fully automated system consisting of a materials testing machine and robotic handling system ensures reliable, economical testing of pharmaceutical packaging and medical products.

Automated Testing of Autoinjectors

Auto-injectors are subject to strict quality control. As an alternative to manual quality control, ZwickRoell has developed a solution for automatic determination of the relevant test parameters. These include the firing time, expulsion speed and the extended needle length.

Automated guided vehicles AGV

There is an increasing rate in the use of automation in materials testing, especially since even the smallest disruptions can alter measured values. Time consuming and monotonous tasks are also often carried out by robots. ZwickRoell offers a wide range of possibilities for automation in materials testing.
