Case Study: SHAD improves productivity and work environment with Universal Robots UR5

Shad Depends On Universal Robots To Optimize Their Production Processes

SHAD, a European leader in motorcycle accessories, needed a better way to handle growing demand and changing product runs at its Mollet de Valles facility. The company was looking for an automation solution that could fit smaller production batches, improve efficiency, and avoid the cost and limitations of a single-purpose system.

Universal Robots supplied the UR5 collaborative robot, which SHAD used for tasks like screw driving and assembly. The flexible, easy-to-program cobot could be moved and reprogrammed as needs changed, working safely alongside employees without fencing. As a result, SHAD improved productivity, product quality, production time, and the work environment while also helping reduce costs.
