Bin picking in hidden time
Bin picking solution
for automotive parts in bulk
The parts concerned are sliding sleeves, which arrive in bulk in 1200 x 1000 x 1000 mm containers. The vision system positioned above the container locates the parts to be picked and transmits their precise 3D coordinates, so they can be removed without any risk of collision damaging the process.
To achieve the cycle times imposed by manufacturing, a double gripper has been designed and the precise location of parts is achieved in masked time when the robot is outside the sensor’s field of vision.
This Bin-Picking technology, developed over 15 years ago by Visionerf’s teams, ensures trouble-free operation on this production line. It has significantly increased productivity and eliminated the risk of musculoskeletal disorders associated with handling parts on this line.
