Projects

Examples of custom automation YogiRobotics has designed, built, or consulted on. Each project starts with the process in front of us — not a catalog cell.

Custom Print Head Flushing Machine

Custom machine design
Print head flushing
Class 1000 cleanroom

Challenge

A 1,200 dpi print head with 880 jets of 15 micron required a custom flushing process. The full assembly had to be flushed multiple times to achieve a clean print head tank, and the equipment had to be built for a Class 1000 cleanroom.

Solution

YogiRobotics designed and built a custom flushing machine so the full assembly could be flushed multiple times and a clean print head tank achieved, specified for a Class 1000 cleanroom.

Key details

Print head: 1,200 dpi, with 880 jets of 15 micron
Process: Full assembly flushed multiple times to achieve a clean print head tank
Environment: Built for a Class 1000 cleanroom

Precision wash
Design & consulting

Challenge

The program required an automated cell for DNA cell growth: receive DNA samples, add bacteria and chemicals to grow the DNA, then remove the bacteria and chemicals using precision wash units.

Solution

YogiRobotics designed and consulted on a $2 million automated cell for this process. The cell uses ABB robots and is an example of work in life sciences and lab automation.

Key details

Role: Design and consulting
Cell value: $2 million
Process: Receive DNA samples; add bacteria and chemicals to grow the DNA; remove bacteria and chemicals with precision wash units
Robots: ABB robots
Application: Life sciences / lab automation
