Sepro集团与优傲机器人宣布在协作机器人领域达成新合作
Sepro Group, a global leader in robots and industrial automation for the plastic industry, and Universal Robots (UR), market leader in collaborative robots (cobots), have signed an agreement to collaborate within collaborative robotics and industrial automation.
作为塑料行业中机械手及工业自动化领域的全球领导者，
Sepro集团近期与协作式机器人市场领导者优傲机器人签署了合作协议，
双方将在协作式机器人及工业自动化领域展开合作。
Under the terms of this partnership between Sepro and UR, Sepro Group will integrate its Visual Control System with cobots supplied by UR. The Visual Control Platform was developed by Sepro especially for robots used in plastics injection-molding machines. All Sepro products, including co-branded lines, are controlled by Visual, providing the same user interface regardless of the type of robot.
根据Sepro集团与优傲机器人的合作条款，Sepro集团会将其视觉控制系统与优傲机器人的协作机器人进行整合。该视觉控制平台是Sepro集团专为用于注塑机的机械手所研发。Sepro集团的所有产品，包括联合品牌线的产品，均为视觉控制，且所有型号的机械手都拥有相同的用户界面。
“I am enthusiastic to announce this partnership, which will expand our already extensive portfolio. Moreover, I believe that the combination of Sepro Group’s know-how and the ground-breaking collaborative technologies developed by Universal Robots will allow our customers even greater flexibility and choice in how they approach automation in the plastic injection process,” says Jean-Michel Renaudeau, CEO of Sepro Group.
“我热烈宣布，双方正式达成合作关系，这将进一步拓展我们丰富的现有产品。此外，我相信，将Sepro集团的专业技术与优傲机器人独创开发的协作机器人技术结合起来，可以让我们的客户在注塑过程中实现自动化方面更加灵活，拥有更多的选择。”Sepro集团首席执行官Jean-Michel Renaudeau表示。
Jürgen von Hollen, President, Universal Robots, adds: “I am very excited about our new partnership with the Sepro Group targeting the plastic injection automation market. Sepro has extensive experience and knowledge about how to automate the manufacturing processes and Universal Robots is the market leader in collaborative robots. Together, the two companies will be able to provide efficient, safe and easy to use solutions for a wide range of customers within the plastic injection industry.”
优傲机器人总裁Jürgen von Hollen补充道：“非常高兴此次我们能与Sepro集团在注塑自动化市场上展开全新合作。Sepro集团在如何实现生产流程自动化方面拥有丰富的经验和知识，而优傲机器人是协作机器人市场的领导者。双方的合作可以为注塑行业的广大客户带来高效、安全、易用的解决方案。”
The new partnership solutions will allow Sepro Group to deliver the most extensive range of automation solutions to injection molders in the plastics industry. This portfolio includes Cartesian robots, 6-axis articulated-arm robots and now cobots. Like the 6-axis robot solutions, cobots are perfectly adapted to peripheral operations that are increasingly in demand in the plastics industry. By helping customers define the solution that really fits their needs, Sepro Group offers its customers the smartest industrial automation solutions.
新合作将能够使Sepro集团为塑料行业的注塑机提供异常丰富的自动化解决方案，包含笛卡尔机械手、6轴多关节机械手以及新型协作式机器人。与6轴机械手一样，协作式机器人能完全满足塑料行业在外围操作上日益增长的需求。通过为客户制定真正满足其需求的解决方案，Sepro集团为他们提供智能化程度最高的工业自动化产品。
Launching Operation Ready Cobots
推出随时可操作的协作机器人
By adding the renowned Visual Control to the leading cobot for the first time, Sepro Group guarantees seamless integration with UR’s technology and other Sepro robots and molding machines. This will allow customers to design safe, open configurations for various types of processes, including peripheral operations or advanced automation cells. The new solutions from Sepro and UR ensure shortened process-development times and faster installation, resulting in easy-to-deploy, easy-to-test post-processing operations and turn-key automation systems.
通过首次将其闻名遐迩的视觉控制加入到先进的协作机器人中，Sepro集团将优傲机器人的技术和Sepro机械手及注塑机完整地结合在一起。这样一来，可以使客户为不同的流程设计安全开放的配置，包含外围操作或者先进的自动化单元。Sepro集团和优傲机器人合作推出的新解决方案可以缩短流程开发时间，并加快安装速度，从而使后处理操作和统包自动化系统易于实施和测试。
Under the terms of the agreement, Sepro will provide global services for solutions from Sepro and UR. With more than 150 experts and 42 service centers around the world, Sepro will be able to deliver local support and the same quality of service for cobots as it does on Cartesian and six-axis robots.
根据协议条款，Sepro集团将会为Sepro和优傲机器人合作推出的解决方案提供全球服务。凭借遍布全球的150多名专家和42个服务中心，Sepro能为协作式机器人提供与笛卡尔机械手和6轴机械手同等标准的本地化支持和服务质量。
The solutions from Sepro and UR will be displayed on Sepro Group’s booth in Hall 12, A49, during K 2019, which takes place in Düsseldorf, Germany, October 16-23, 2019.
Sepro和优傲机器人合作推出的应用方案将在K2019展会12号展厅A49展位上展出，该展会将于2019年10月16日至23日在德国杜塞尔多夫举办。
