Locking Pivot Arm
Simple, economic and
standard for material
handling applications:
stamping, packaging
and palletizing, handling,
etc…
The risers allow to
increase the height of
the robot required for
some applications in
the automotive industry
The pivot arm allows an
angular movement of a
reference support, and is
operated by a cylinder with
blocking and locked with a
3 point system in working
position
Standard modular
electro-pneumatical
manifold allows reduction
of time for cabling,
piping, tests, and
reduction of stocks
The automotive industry is generally credited with having
pioneered the large scale use of robots. Long production
runs of identical vehicles were the ideal field of application
for these untiring and reliable workers. Today’s market is
increasingly putting automotive manufacturers under
pressure to offer customers more choice, while at the
same time demanding lower production costs. To fulfill
these apparently contradictory requests, a single line must
be able to produce a mix of different models, and must
“learn” to make new models without calling for a total
re-design of its equipment – and preferably without even
stopping production.
ABB has responded to these demands by making robot
cells more adaptable, easier to install and more space
saving. The new generation of cells can produce so
cheaply that they can match manual labor in low-cost
countries – providing manufacturers with an alternative to
outsourcing while in the mean time raising the quality
supplied to local markets.
ABB is now proposing a standard cost-effective solution
to compete with manually operated body shops:
FlexLean. This new concept is based on a range of
innovative, cost-optimized products which can be used
for a lean Body shop.
ABB robotized solutions challenge low cost labor in Body-in-White
« From component assembly to body
complete, ABB offers a range of lean
products and solutions to be more
competitive and in the same time
fulfill your customers demands!”

Standard solutions for flexible body shop
The FlexLean solution allows to have a new generation of robot cells
n
As cells are more robotized, they offer important assets:
• Flexibility: no skids, no pallets are in the cell
• Ease of use: no specific programming start-up is required
• Easy carry-over
• Simplified maintenance: less spare parts are required
• Less specific referencing system: no additional tooling or tool changers are necessary
• Improved quality thanks to quick adjustment and set-up with programmable tooling
• Improved uptime thanks to the 80% robotized tasks
n
Cells are also more standardized and their main key features are:
• Short lead-time: all equipment are already on the platform
• Easy to add new car model
• Simple HMI
• Easy to program
• Quick start-up
• No specific conveying system is required by this solution
• Lean
