John Deere Forestry drops downtime from 100 to 15 hours 

Introducing off-line programming has enabled the Joensuu plant of John Deere Forestry to virtually eliminate production downtime caused by re-programming of robotic production systems.

“It’s less than a fifth of the downtime we used to have,” says Raimo Sorjonen, head of development. Off-line programming has thus given an average of 85 extra hours of production time. Since new products are continuously being developed, reprogramming robot cells is a factor of increasing importance.
