Processing speed that would surprise experienced carpenters
Wood precut system

Wood processing has entered a new age. In the past, skilled craftsmen were needed to perform precutting work. For example, three carpenters would spend 20 days on the lumber precutting required to build a wooden house. The 6-axis robot requires only 3 days for the same amount of work.

Robots essential for environment-friendy washing technology
Railroad truck washing and air-blow equipment

Washing trucks black with dirt is extremely tough work for human workers. This work can be performed by robots instead, thereby improving the working conditions. Usually the washing process involves soaking the truck with a chemical solution and then having human workers wash the truck down with large amounts of water. Now, robots can wash the truck by spraying on a relatively small amount of chemical-free water at high pressure, thus protecting the environment as well as saving labor.
