2016 Advancing Automation and Expanding Design Capabilities

2016 – Nelson Miller Group placed a new 3-axis robot with custom End of Arm Tooling for multi-cavity extraction of parts from all-new fast-cycling 16 cavity hot runner molds into service. This 3-axis robot runs in conjunction with a custom-designed rotary packaging station housed in a class-100,000 clean room, allowing for decreased human contact in the manufacturing process and reducing operator labor costs. Also in 2016, IW doubled the number of available SolidWorks Seats from 2 to 4. The addition allows more contributors to the process of evaluating and advising customers on how to best design their molds and molded components, reducing the timeline from concept to final part design and new tooling fabrication.
