Auburn Hills, MI – March 5, 2020 – Esys Automation, a JR Automation company, set a new project delivery record when, in just nine weeks, they fully designed, built, and installed an automated robotic system for applying urethane to automotive glass. The system required a design that could accommodate eight glass styles for two vehicle models with a common, single unload point. Projects of this size and scale have a typical lead time of twenty-six weeks.

Esys leveraged its extensive expertise from past glass projects to meet the tight deadline. To date, Esys has installed automated glass systems in nine Ford facilities, including Ford’s first collaborative robot system for applying urethane to automotive glass. Leveraging the previous designs allowed the cell design to be completed in only two weeks.

“We are proud of our expert team in glass sealing systems and technology. Executing this aggressive project is a testament to all who contributed,” said Scott Claxton, Vice President of Esys Automation. ”We completed designs quickly and achieved expedited lead times on major cell components, which helped immensely in achieving the nine-week delivery goal.”

Esys installed the robotic glass urethane system in Ford’s Chicago Assembly Plant and achieved a production ready state in only five on-site days. Even with the compressed time frame, Esys incorporated enhanced operator interface features to ensure plant operator success. Additionally, Esys provided four weeks of 24/7­­­ support after start of production, including robotic and PLC engineering training.
