Current Challenges
Sine Automation & Integration Pvt. Ltd. builds customized CNC welding robots, each tailored to the client’s specific design requirements, making it rare for two robots to share the same design. The controllers for these robotic machines also have industry-specific requirements, precluding the use of pre-built or stock controllers. Traditionally, the controller body was machined from aluminum, a process that is both expensive and time-consuming.
Solution by Divide by Zero Technologies
Divide by Zero Technologies provided Sine Automation & Integration Pvt. Ltd. with the Accucraft i250D 3D printer. This 3D printer was used to create a customized, durable body for the remote controllers used by end clients, designed to withstand real-world conditions.
Benefits of Using Divide by Zero Technologies 3D Printer
After implementing Divide by Zero Technologies’ 3D printers, Sine Automation & Integration Pvt. Ltd. experienced numerous advantages:
- Shorter Turnaround Time: Reduced development time for a controller by approximately 80%.
- Higher Cost-Efficiency: Cut development costs by around 70%.
- Precision and Accuracy: Achieved high accuracy, with components such as the battery, keypad membrane, and LCD screen fitting seamlessly.
- Enhanced Longevity: Produced controller bodies that are sturdy and long-lasting, suitable for demanding environments.
- Superior Production Quality: The premium output quality of DBZ printers allows the controllers to be used as end products with minimal post-processing, such as painting and buffing.
Conclusion
3D printing technology has significantly enhanced Sine Automation & Integration Pvt. Ltd.’s ability to produce customized CNC welding robot controllers efficiently and cost-effectively. The advantages include reduced development time and costs, high precision, and robust product quality, making 3D printing an indispensable technology in electronics packaging
