Automation

Custom automated machinery allows companies to increase their efficiency in production. A builder of custom-automated processing systems, REL uses the latest in control and computer technology. Automating the process with custom machinery will ultimately cut costs and raise profits. From automated part inspection lines to automated shape-ceramic, shape-forming equipment, REL will customize the machinery that best suits customer needs. Customized automated systems at REL are built with quality components and materials.

Custom automated machinery is designed and built by REL. Automated machinery is customized according to the customer’s space requirements, degree of automation, and budgetary limitations. Custom equipment for automated inspection of fluorescent penetrants is easily designed, built, and installed by REL. Custom design automation is carried out by the highly skilled REL staff of mechanical and electrical engineers.

A customized system of automated machinery from REL will require minimal maintenance and downtime. With REL custom automation, engineering design, and material development, companies will improve their quality, productivity, and process control. From conception through installation, automated equipment by REL will be customized and tested to meet or exceed all criteria. Designing custom automation solutions are the REL specialty.

DEPLOYED AUTOMATED MANUFACTURING CELL

REL specializes in automating robotic manufacturing cells this yields lower part costs, higher production rates, and improved safety for many operations. With many years of combined experience in machining, automation and controls programming, REL can provide a fully automated manufacturing cell.

REL will provide your team with an optimized control scheme, layout of the machinery and robotics, and any required inspection and non-destructive testing systems. REL’s planning and implementation of your optimized manufacturing system is considered from the earliest stages of materials and process design. The machinery on REL or your facility is integrated and a through run-off is preformed to begin preproduction operations. Work is complete when finished parts are unloaded at full production rates.

For companies seeking to improve existing automation systems, REL provides a review of current operations, reprogramming and optimization to cut processing time, increase throughput, and reduced part cost. REL’s engineers excel in machining, materials, and automation; they can co-optimize all aspects of the manufacturing line. For example, REL reduced the total part time to produce turbine blades from 40 minutes per part to 8 minutes per part. This was achieved through a complete analysis of the operation, optimization of machining, controls, and inspection schemes. Put REL’s expertise to work for your team: improve your existing automation or let them provide a new turn-key cell.
