- Function -
Robo Cylinder can change speed on the fly.
Robo Cylinder is good for two step speed change (max. 16 steps) while in motion, and constant speed stability movement.
- Compared with air cylinder -
It is very difficult to change an air cylinder’s speed on the fly, but very easy for Robo Cylinder. Unlike air cylinders, Robo Cylinder can move at a constant speed because of its motor and ball screw driven mechanism.

When air cylinders were used, the “Ionizer” lasted only a month due to the air cylinder’s abrupt stopping force. The customer had to stop the line for few hours to replace the damaged “Ionizer”. An Ionizer = $600 ~$700.
After switching to ERC, the “Ionizer” has not been damaged since because of the controlled acceleration /deceleration.
Lost time from stopping the line to replace the “Ionizer” was 2 hours/month meaning 2,500 DVDs could not be produced per month.At a cost of $1 per DVD, the production loss was $2,500/month.
Annual loss was $30,000.

1. Tact time dropped to less than half
2. Machine cost saving of $150,000
The old air and hydro system could not control speed and thrust of each position, and needed to push twice to press the ring securely.
Robo Cylinder can control speed and thrust in each position. It can quickly move right before the press position, then slow down for a high thrust press fit. This shortened the tact time from
10 seconds to 4 seconds.
The old air and hydro system needed many sensors mounted on the actuators to check that the snap ring was pressed in correctly.
The “Push” and “Zone Output” functions of the Robo Cylinder, eliminated most of the sensors.Also, one Robo Cylinder took the place of many air and hydro actuators dropping the
machine cost from $206,000 to $56,000.
