Assembly of Prototype Razor Cartridges

Robot-assisted recording of the blades without damaging the edge and the correct orientation to insert them into the slots in the housing

The task of robot-assisted robotic measuring is that at least 3 different blades per cartridge (i.e. from different chargers) and at least 2 different lubricating strips can be installed. Inserting the blades into the cartridge case is a critical area. The biggest challenge is picking up the blade without damaging the edge and then aligning it and inserting it into the slots in the housing.

Robotic Measuring System comprising a Robot with Gripper, Specially Developed Tools, Cameras and Force Sensor

The blades are inserted into the housing from front to back. The trimmer and lubristrip can be inserted before or after the blades have been inserted, and not all cassettes have trimmers/lubristrips. Trimmers and Lubristrips must be aligned during assembly. As soon as the blades and trimmer are in place, two aluminum clips are inserted from above. The clips must be oriented so that the longest leg faces the back of the cartridge. In addition to the basic structure, there is a device for receiving the housings and automatically fixing the housing. It is possible to automatically learn the insertion positions using image processing. The same applies that the robot learns the target positions using image processing and a reference position. All relevant system components are controlled using the Battenberg RobFlow© measurement software carried out. The system is easy to program thanks to the use of the Battenberg RobFlow© measurement software and the additional integrated image processing, as well as a high degree of flexibility and expandability of the entire testing system or the robotic measuring system.

Testing of robotic measuring to ensure quality and function

The measurement robots are specified and defined as a measurement reference in order to create a clear basis for decision-making for the final product evaluation and its approval.

Recognized and valued as a benchmark to meet the OEMs' and suppliers' acceptance scenario and to verify test results in accordance with contracted product specifications, with the aim of accepting the manufacturing quality of the product. Our factory standards and validations guarantee accurate product quality ratings, which are confirmed by our clients' auditors.
