3 An Introduction to Collaborative Industrial Robots Getting the Best ROI Craig Tomita UNIVERSAL ROBOTS Area Sales Manager - West Thursday, June 7, 2018

4 About the Company 512+ Employees Composed of 32 Nationalities Started Commercial Sales in 2008 As of May 2018: 25,000 Robots Installed Globally Market Leader with 58% Share of Collaborative Robot Market Based in Odense, Denmark Owned by Teradyne (N. Reading, MA)

5 About the Company Universal Robot Offices UR Headquarters Universal Robots subdivisions

6 About the Company Universal Robots USA, Inc. Ann Arbor Office (US HQ) 5430 Data Court, Suite 300 Ann Arbor, MI Irvine Office 101 Pacifica, Suite 350 Irvine, CA New York Office 100 Quentin Roosevelt Blvd., Suite 206 Garden City, NY Dallas Office 909 Lake Carolyn Pkwy, Suite 1850 Irving, TX

7 Business Pressure Comes from All Sides Changing market demands Changing employment environment Changing face of manufacturing

8 Your Market Environment Is Changing Product variants & customization High mix/low volume Wearables & printed electronics Short product lifecycles Complexity & miniaturization Precision & consistency Consumer demand Faster delivery

9 The Employment Picture Is Changing Rising minimum wages & Training costs Skills shortage/high turnover Global competition Reshoring on the rise

10 Manufacturing Is Changing Fixed installations Relocatable Without human interaction Frequent interaction Separation of space Shared space Repetitive work Frequent changes Long-term ROI Short-term ROI

11 History of Industrial Revolutions

12 Effects of the Industrial Revolution Created a gap in Manufacturing: Human aspect is now missing

13 Human-robot collaboration is 85% more productive - than humans or robots alone Source: MIT research data on Financial Times article Meet the cobots: humans and robots together on the factory floor on 5th May 2016.

14 Collaborative Robots: A Disruptive New Tool for Manufacturers

15 Industrial Robots vs. Collaborative Robots Large, fixed equipment Typically requires safety cage High-volume, high-speed production Complex integration and programming Difficult to change/redeploy Small & flexible Similar speed as human Fast set-up Easy to use Safe alongside workers

16 What You See Is Just the Tip of the Iceberg Robot Hardware Cost: Cobot Hardware Cost: Plugs into a 110 V outlet Additional Items: $ End-of-Arm-Tooling $ End-of-Arm-Tooling $ 3-Phase Power Infrastructure $ Teaching $ Fencing & Guarding $ Light Curtains $ Safety Scanners $ Software License $ Integration/Programming $ Maintenance/Repairs Avg. Robot Implementation Cost: Additional Items: Avg. COBOT Implementation Cost:

26 The Business Case for Ease-of-Use

27 Increase Robot Literacy Universal Robots Academy is a series of training opportunities designed to upgrade knowledge about robot programming. The Academy targets: Distributors System Integrators End users Students

28 The Business Case for Flexible Deployment

29 The Business Case for Fast Set-Up

30

31 The Business Case for Collaborative Automation

32 Fast set-up + Flexible + Easy + Collaborative = deployment programming and safe

33 FASTEST PAYBACK IN THE INDUSTRY

34 Low Initial Cost & Fast ROI

35 Let s Look at an Example Labor Costs (per hour) $ 18 Hours (per shift) 8 Shifts (per day) 3 Days Operating (per week) 5 Weeks Operating (per year) 50 # Operators (per shift 1 Yearly Running Costs $ 108,000 Monthly Running Costs $ 9,000 ROI Calculator available Annual Labor Costs Number of Operators 12 Months Monthly Running Costs

36 Break-Even & Net Gain Robot Investment Monthly Running Costs Break-Even (in Months) Break Even Point (months) 5 1 Year Savings $ 63,000 2 Year Savings $ 171,000 3 Year Savings $ 279,000 5 Year Savings $ 487,000 Collaborative Robot Additional Hardware and Services Total Investment $ 35,000 $ 10,000 $ 45,000 Yearly Running Costs Robot Investment Annual Savings

37 Average Payback Times (in months) by application Assembly CNC Reported payback time (in months) for sample cobot deployments across ten applications Gluing, dispensing and welding Machine tending Quality inspection Lab analysis and testing Polishing Packaging and palletizing Pick and place

38 Average Payback Times (in months) by application Assembly CNC Average payback time: 10.5 months Gluing, dispensing and welding Machine tending Quality inspection Lab analysis and testing Polishing Reported payback time (in months) for sample cobot deployments across ten applications Packaging and palletizing Pick and place

39 Task Force Tips, Valparaiso, IN 12 UR5 & UR10 robots in CNC machine tending and deburring Robot run 21 hours per day unassisted, saving those man hours More than half of staff freed up to work on other, more value-added production tasks Redeployable automation asset Self-sufficient support requirements CEO: It s a paradigm shift in the way robots are viewed - TFT customers now see them as being thought leaders in the industry

40 Dynamic Group, Minneapolis, MN 1 UR5 robot & 2 UR10 robots in injection molding machine tending, degating and kitting Production output quadrupled Freed up 60% of work force for more complex tasks Employee hours were shifted to quality control and value add processes Maintained manufacturing footprint No safety cages allowed for no change to footprint. Product consistency increased, scrap weight reduced Heat sensitive material requires consistent machine cycle.

41 Paradigm Electronics, Toronto, ON UR10 robot using built-in force mode in surface polishing of high finish loud speakers Productivity increase of 50% Implementation time one fifth of traditional industrial robots (cartesian) due to easy programming and no need for safety guarding Built-in force mode Enables robot to handle delicate polishing and buffing tasks, adding consistent, programmable pressure Ability to polish curved and parabolicly shaped surfaces Add-on force mode feature on other robots often costs the same as the entire UR robot. No job losses Works in tandem with employee who handles final polish and quality check Employees are now promoted from machine operators to robot programmers

42 Make the Most of Your Investment into the Future

43 The Business Case for Cobots

44 Kickstart your cobot in 10 steps Cost-effective, safe, and flexible collaborative robots - or cobots - are making automation easier than ever, even for small and mid-sized companies. This ebook will help you kickstart your first cobot project, stepping you through decisions on: Throughput, Reach & Payload Parts & Presentation Connectivity & Integration Grippers & End effectors Programming and much more.
