Within our facility there is also a dedicated clean room for switchboard manufacture.
Investment in a robotic system is often a big decision and understanding whether that avenue is an appropriate solution for your situation is very important. In the right application robotics can provide cost savings, productivity increases, reduced health and safety risks and more flexibility to your system.
To help you verify if a robot cell is appropriate, the staff at PFi can complete robot simulations so that you can visualise your concept installation prior to any works being completed. This time spent at the start of the project can be very worthwhile and greatly reduce the project risk.
Upfront simulations can provide several benefits such as determining the reach limitations of the robot, the payload limitations, approximate cycle times, and the floor space required by the installation. Also by being able to see the cell, this can give you a much better understanding of exactly what is involved in the cell and whether this solution will work for you.
Professional electrical designs and drawings are completed by the staff at PFi using professional electrical software packages. These drawings provide a clear description of the electrical circuits in the machinery provided and are very useful for maintenance, upgrades and servicing of equipment.
Our engineers and draftspersons have extensive experience in the design of machinery. 3D design is typically completed utilising the Autodesk Inventor software package. Our skilled staff can develop both professional concept sketches for your feasibility studies or detailed designs for manufacture.
2D design is performed using AutoCAD.
Providing safety solutions and systems has been a core strength of PFi for many years. The experienced staff at PFi can perform methodical risk assessments for your plant and provide you with recommended courses of action.
PFi can provide you a report on the risk assessment in accordance with the appropriate standards (EN ISO 13849-1, EN 61508) and detail the performance level (PL) required or the safety integrity level (SIL) as preferred by your company.
