Every time when you re-start the IML robot, it's very important to have the axis of the robotic arm back to the origin position. Here in this chapter you'll lean how to do the "ORG" of the IML robot before automatic running.
Toggle the knob in the upper left corner of the teach pendant to ORI, and the interface jumps to the origin screen:
| No | Name | Function |
|---|---|---|
| (1) | Axis data |
|
| (2) | START key | Click to start the automatic return to origin action. |
In origin ORG mode, press the START button to start origin reset.

What's the advantage of a double arms robot top entry IML system for lids?
IML lids is now a business of billions of US dollar around the world especially as the package of dairy products. But as an easiest IML products to produce, IML lids is one of the most price sensitive products in the market. A smaller budget in facility investment and easier operating will no doubt help the IML lids producer to reduce their production and will be able to react faster to the market change.
For IML lids for small and medium size containers to be produced in injection molding machine around 350T, the cost of a double arms top entry IML system would be about one 2/3 against a side entry IML robot with similiar productivity. And since the robot is to be installed to the top of the injection molding machine, it'll occupy less floor space and maximize the the floor occupation of your working place. And as a top entry IML system it'll provide more flexibility to have the parts either dropped to the operator side or the non-operator side.
