MRSI announces "On-Demand" manufacturing

Keyword: MRSI

MRSI, are offering an automatic recipe selection for its line of assembly and dispense equipment for "On-Demand" manufacturing. This feature enables the equipment to automatically determine which assembly or dispense program to run, based on reading the bar code of a boat or pallet as it arrives at the station. This advancement becomes a perfect solution when combined with the MRSI-505 Ultra Precision Assembly Work Cell, which can be loaded with seventy waffle packs simultaneously. Thus, the system can be set up at the beginning of the shift for a range of parts and automatically adapts to whatever random events occur elsewhere in the assembly process.

One group of customers who have taken advantage of this capability includes Photonics producers, who continuously switch between optical transmitters and receivers. Microwave electronics manufacturers have utilized the feature as they balance their flow of amplifier, filter, and limiter modules. MRSI's integrated production lines of dispense, assembly, and epoxy curing equipment combine automatic recipe selection with full material traceability and SMEMA communications for a complete turnkey manufacturing solution (Plate 3).
