CIM and FMS Systems

Computer Integrated Manufacturing &

Flexible Manufacturing Systems

Our CIM and FMS systems are modular and flexible solutions
for educating and training students in the principles and
technologies of computer integrated manufacturing.
 Computer Integrated Manufacturing &
Flexible Manufacturing Systems
Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) system has several key components: an
automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS), at least one automated workstation such
as CNC machining, a continuous-loop conveyor, a central management control station, a
TCP/IP communication network, and OpenCIM software.

2
Additional workstations can be added at any time for executing a variety of automated
tasks, such as laser engraving, hydraulic and pneumatic device operation, process
control, and quality control inspection.

Stations Overview

1
1 Storage Station
The ASRS storage station is a floor-mounted
or a table top automated storage and retrieval
(ASRS) system designed for educational use.
The system’s dedicated Cartesian robot
transfers parts between storage cells and
conveyor pallets stopped at the ASRS station.
The robot is controlled by Controller-USB and
by a dedicated ASRS software module in the
OpenCIM software. An optional hand-held teach
pendant can also be used for direct control of
the ASRS.

2 Machine Tending Station

This package can be used as a stand-alone
workcell, or integrated within a CIM system.
The robot tends the CNC machine and performs
other part manipulation and/or assembly tasks.

8
When used in a CIM system, the robot loads and
unloads parts to and from the CIM conveyor.
The robot is mounted on a linear slidebase for
mobility and larger work area. Any of the MTS
stations can be provided as a standalone FMS.

7
3 Assembly & Quality Control
Station
The assembly and QC station is equipped with a
variety of assembly and quality control devices
as well as with local storage devices.
This turnkey station gives students training
and skills in assembly, quality control, robotic
programming and automated manufacturing
systems.

2
 4 Welding Station
This automated welding station can be used as a
stand-alone workcell, or integrated within a CIM

3
system. When used in a CIM system, the robot
loads and unloads parts to and from the CIM
conveyor in addition to performing arc welding
and part manipulation tasks.

4
5 Conveyors
The conveyor frame is constructed of extruded,
black anodized aluminum, and its moving belt is
a double flexible-chain rail.

6 PLC Station
The PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) can
control and monitor the flow of pallets on the
conveyor with the help of sensors and actuators
that are built into the stop stations.

7 Pallet Tracking Station

The stop station allows the PLC to control and
monitor the flow of pallets on the conveyor with
the help of sensors and actuators that are built
into the stop stations.

8 Management Station

5
The OpenCIM software is a computer-integrated
systems management solution that contains all
the elements found in fully-automated facilities.
Shop floor management controls the operation

6
of all the elements of automated factory.
Administrative software connects the shop
floor management to the production facility’s
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).
The OpenCIM software contains an ERP package
which breaks down customer orders to analyze
bill of materials, check availability of raw
materials, produce vendor’s purchase order and
schedule production based on expected lead
times.

3
 Storage Station

ASRS-36u
The ASRS 36u has 36 cells arranged in six rows. Each cell can
store a part-holding template. The 36 templates supplied with
the system have pin holes that allow the user to customize the
template's holding area to accommodate objects of various shapes
and sizes.
A template buffer supplied with the system can be attached to a
CIM conveyor or to a table in a stand-alone ASRS/robotic work cell.
The robot is controlled by Controller-USB and by a dedicated
ASRS software module in the OpenCIM software. The software
provides display and tracking ASRS contents, enables real-time
control of inventory, and controls the robotic storage and retrieval
operations.
An optional hand-held teach pendant can also be used for direct
control of the ASRS.
The ASRS station may also include a bar code scanning system for
real-time identification and verification of part-carrying templates.

 Welding Station
This turnkey automated welding station
gives students training and skills in
production welding methods, robotic
programming and control.
Using RoboCell software students safely
perform entire welding processes in
3D simulation before executing actual
automated welding applications.
Students learn to overcome common
welding problems, such as thermal
deformation, by adjusting welding
technique. Students also learn to improve
weld quality by optimizing important
welding parameters such as wire feed
rate, robot speed, inert gas shield and
voltage.
Safety is an integral part of the system.
The robotic workbench is housed in a
fire retardant metal booth with filter-
plated windows for UV and eye protection.
Opening a booth door automatically halts
the welding operation. Pressing either of
two emergency buttons immediately halts
both robotic and welding operations.
