Automation and Robotics in Advanced Manufacturing

For over a decade, CONUAR has integrated robotic systems for component handling and feeding across its production lines, boosting operational efficiency and ensuring dimensional consistency. This long-term approach to industrial automation reflects CONUAR’s commitment to technological excellence and continuous improvement in high-demand sectors such as nuclear, aerospace, and energy manufacturing.

Evolution Toward Automated Production

The development and implementation of a robotic cell for die feeding in mechanical and hydraulic presses enabled the optimization of multiple consecutive operations in a single process. By incorporating high-precision industrial robots, CONUAR achieved hundredth-millimeter repeatability in part positioning, eliminating inconsistencies typical of manual handling.

The outcome: minimal dimensional variation and enhanced geometric stability in subassemblies and assemblies—directly improving quality metrics and reducing non-conformities.

Technical and Productivity Benefits

Repeatability and Traceability

Each production cycle is replicated with precision, ensuring consistent quality from batch to batch.

Reduction of Accumulated Tolerances

Tight control over dimensions reduces the need for final calibration and adjustment.

Increased Productivity

Cycle times are significantly optimized, decreasing idle stages and human intervention.

Enhanced Operational Safety

Robotic automation in critical areas lowers operator exposure to ergonomic risks and moving parts

Advancing Toward Smart Manufacturing

CONUAR is entering a new phase of technological transformation through the integration of machine vision systems. These systems will not only improve robotic movement precision, but also enable real-time visual inspection, part recognition, and optimized gripping and placement.

This integration of robotics, artificial vision, and data analytics marks a shift toward smart manufacturing, where production cells dynamically adapt to conditions, anticipate deviations, and ensure compliance with quality standards.

Commitment to Innovation and Industrial Excellence

These advancements reinforce CONUAR’s position as a regional leader in advanced manufacturing technologies. The company firmly believes that innovation is key to long-term competitiveness.

Developing proprietary robotic solutions, integrating intelligent systems, and continuously enhancing precision and efficiency are embedded in CONUAR’s industrial DNA.
