Midgard Inc achieves ROI in 1,500 hours with Universal Robots

Midgard Inc., a family-owned injection molder, faced limitations with traditional automation for handling custom components and secondary operations. Their challenges included programming complexity and workmen's compensation risks from repetitive manual tasks. They turned to Universal Robots, implementing UR12e cobots with the IMMI module to automate their production process.

Universal Robots provided a solution where cobots tend injection molding machines and perform all secondary operations like degating and drilling within the same cycle. This automation delivered a full return on investment in just 1,500 hours, reduced the scrap rate to nearly zero, and yielded significant savings on workmen's compensation insurance. The success led Midgard to commit to purchasing UR cobots with every new machine.
