Abstract

The purpose of this document is to describe the how smart robotics technology with multi-tool features can be used to increase safety and reduce the manpower needed in casting operations. It describes details of the layout, used equipment and iprocess carried on to apply this technology to Gerdau Araçariguama in São Paulo, Brazil. The work showed that this type of technology can be successful even in applications where there is little room available, as long there is a good cooperation between the parts involved in the project. It also proved that this technology is a reality and it can turn dangerous manual tasks into supervision tasks.
