Case Study: Mercury Marine cuts robot programming time by 50% with Robotmaster

Mercury Marine cuts robot programming time by 50% with Robotmaster

Mercury Marine, a manufacturer of marine engines and propulsion systems, faced a challenge in programming its robotic grinding and polishing systems. Using the traditional teach-pendant method required a week of work from three experts and resulted in inconsistent quality that was highly dependent on programmer experience. The company sought an easier and more effective programming solution from vendor Robotmaster.

By implementing Robotmaster offline programming software, Mercury Marine empowered programmers of all experience levels to create consistent, high-quality robotic paths. The solution decreased programming time by 50%, nearly eliminated robot downtime, and improved results by removing the need for rework and extending the life of consumables. Robotmaster's optimization tool was cited as a key feature for generating error-free programs.
