Pick and place technology

Pick-and-place technology is an automated process in which components or objects are picked up and placed in a specific position.

The process:

Detection: Sensors or cameras detect the location and position of the object.
Gripping: The gripper picks up the object.
Moving: The robot arm moves to the target position.
Placing: The object is placed precisely.

Application example: Pipe clamps

Pipe clamps run on a conveyor belt, roughly separated, into the robot cell. A 2D camera determines the rotational position and gripping position as well as the prone or supine position while the conveyor belt continues to move. This data is then transmitted to the robot, which picks up the components while the conveyor belt is moving and places them in a cycle table according to their prone or supine position. The final assembly of the components then takes place there.

Your advantages:

Cost savings through complete automation
Lower error rate and quality assurance through the use of robots
Cycle time optimization cycle time: less than 1 sec./part possible
