Collaborative robots from ABB enhance productivity in Electrolux’s refrigerator production process – Video

The video showcases how ABB’s collaborative robots have significantly boosted productivity on Electrolux’s refrigerator production line. Electrolux, a global leader in household appliances, sought ABB’s help to find a reliable robotic solution for gas leak detection in their refrigerators. ABB’s collaborative robot, YuMi, completely automated the process, increasing repeatability and detection accuracy. The operator can work closely with the robot, ensuring safety and making precise adjustments to robot trajectories.

Impressed by the success with YuMi, Electrolux turned to ABB again to replace a faulty robot in quality testing on another production line. ABB provided the collaborative robot, GoFa, which solved downtime issues and increased testing effectiveness by 88%. The partnership with ABB has resulted in a reliable, safe, and efficient robotic operation, allowing for internal workforce development and the potential to replicate successful applications across other production lines worldwide. This collaboration showcases the benefits of integrating collaborative robots to enhance productivity and flexibility in manufacturing processes.
