Sterling's mission is to put leading edge robotics and automation from around the world to work in industry. Sterling identifies cutting-edge solutions to real-life industry challenges. Those solutions are then translated into custom installations, drawing as needed on the expertise of associated Sterling companies. Assembly, machine loading/unloading, material handling, parts transfer, foam in place gasketing, and other applications.
The list ranges from OEM automotive and parts suppliers to stamping, injection molding and heat treatment. Keep it simple. Sterling believes in integrating high technology with existing systems. That approach is embraced by today's customers, who must contain costs in order to compete.

The Sterling approach has been to use a compact dial (rotary) style machine or combination of dial machines which can be automatically loaded and unloaded.
Parts introduced into the system are first "washed" by "dipping" them into a hearted water bath.
The number of "wash" cycles is determined by the size and weight of the parts to be coated.
The water temperature is controlled by an adjustable electric heater.
Next, the parts are then allowed to "drip" dry before they are introduced into the "coating" bath.

A snowboarder watching the powder fly while racing down a hill demands control.
So do snowboard manufacturers.
That's why one major firm called on Sterling to build two identical transfer machines to assemble and bond the trendy sports gear.
Snowboards are built like sandwiches, with layers of wood, steel, fiberglass and resin, they explained.
Heating, squeezing cooling -- everything must be precise, Quality is vital.
In-process SPC monitoring provides a permanent record for each snowboard produced.

Customer A needs 100,000 units - ASAP, please.
Customer B figures his first delivery of 500 samples will land a big contract, but only if he can ship them in a hurry.
Who gets the priority?
Both, thanks to a new Sterling automated system.
This system is used to produce plastic wheels in a variety of designs molded onto standard steel rims.
All the carts can carry identical molds.
A sensor identifies the specific mold on each cart and adjusts production parameters as needed.
Sound Good?
