Robotics and Autonomous Systems and Solutions

Automate Your Production Processes for Increased Efficiency

Manufacturers are facing a shortage of affordable, qualified, reliable candidates for production and warehouse jobs. Hazardous, tedious, or demanding roles are even more challenging and expensive to fill.

PEC engineers make it possible for businesses to reduce labor costs and workplace injuries while increasing productivity. We help our clients better utilize employees and allow people to do more rewarding jobs. Let us help you realize the full potential of robotic process automation.

We Make it Easy to Get the Full Benefits of Intelligent Robotics

Once thought of as out of reach for smaller manufacturing operations, Robotics has become increasingly accessible and affordable. Today’s advanced technologies work independently or collaboratively with your production teams and integrate seamlessly into your processes to increase efficiency and quality, lower cost, and maximize productivity.

PEC combines the responsiveness and accessibility of a local partner with the resources and support capabilities of a world-class robotics company.

New Systems

Critical to every project’s success is taking the time upfront to define business goals and predict challenges before we design, build, and install any new robotic system. 

PEC engineers and project managers will work with your team to develop a detailed plan, select the right equipment, make necessary upgrades to support robotics, and strategically integrate new technologies into your operation to achieve maximum efficiency.

Additionally, our technicians will train your team to use the new automated systems and provide ongoing guidance.

Upgrades

An advantage of modern robotic automation systems is that they can be improved with advancing technology. Our automation team can analyze your current solution and make upgrades or retrofits to your equipment and control software that will increase process efficiency and improve reliability.

Options such as custom end-of-arm tooling combined with new software mean you can use tool changers to switch from a welding gun to a spray gun with just a few clicks.

The combinations of grippers, sensors, and tools that can be powered electronically, hydraulically, mechanically, or pneumatically give you unlimited flexibility. These upgrades decrease mistakes, increase production and quality, cut costs, and deliver great ROI.

Whatever You Need, Trust PEC to Do It Right

1

Design

We design robotic solutions to complement your existing industrial processes, choosing the right type; cartesian, SCARA, cylindrical, delta, polar, or vertically articulated, combined with traditional and collaborative (cobots) design, providing you with multiple options. Our design team works closely with you to custom-design the most efficient robotic solution possible.

2

Engineering

Our engineering teams are vital to the integration process. We assess your current industrial processes and develop a comprehensive integration plan. We understand that production is the life of your industry, so our specifications allow for integrating robotics into functioning industrial environments. These specs include all necessary safety, electrical, structural, and control systems upgrades and modifications.

3

Integration

Our integration team excels in accuracy and efficiency. As a turnkey provider, our technicians work closely with the designers and engineers to understand every business requirement and technical consideration. Together, they execute each detail of the plan to design a robotic solution that will improve your quality, throughput, and productivity. We have the experience to get it done right.

4

Maintenance

At PEC, we set ourselves apart from the crowd by being responsive, capable, and committed to our client’s needs. Our robotics teams are no exception; we keep your systems running efficiently and respond with urgency if there is a breakdown in controls or mechanical components. We offer electrical and mechanical troubleshooting, automation control and equipment debugging, general maintenance, and refurbishments.

5

Training

Successful integration doesn’t end with the installation process. Our PEC professionals offer training on the safe and effective operation of every component and can advise production and maintenance teams on best practices to get the most out of your new robotic systems.

Integration is More Than Installation

If logistical installation concerns have delayed your consideration of robotics, PEC can help. We design an efficient robotic system that satisfies all of your requirements, then provide a simulation that allows you to see how practical and efficient your new robotic solution will be. Finally, we seamlessly integrate new solutions into existing processes to improve performance from the start.

When it comes to our commitment to Robotics, PEC has gone all-in by becoming a FANUC certified service provider. This means you get the dependability of a local team with the skill, training, and resources backed by one of the leaders in automation technology for manufacturing.

The PEC-Your Guide to Robotics and Autonomous Systems

Automated Picking Systems - robotic systems working together in a warehouse

We are constantly evolving to incorporate autonomous systems as effectively as possible. When it comes to our customer’s internet needs, it helps to know that the internet is a series of networks in constant communication. 

The information passes or routes through these networks in the most efficient way possible, through the border gateway protocol (BGP). It uses Internet Protocol (IP) addresses provided to Internet Service Providers (ISPs) by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). These networks are autonomous vehicles that rely on protocols overseen by organizations such as the IANA. 

The IP prefix works just like your home address would, but by internet standards, and identifies the address of a computer. You’ll also need to navigate the Autonomous System Number (ASN), which is a globally unique marker that identifies IP prefixes run by certain network operators.
