How Bin Picking Works

Unsorted parts in containers, boxes full of bolts for example, are often an inhibiting factor when it comes to industrial automation. Frequently, this still means laborious manual work. But bin picking – where a robot picks up parts – has undergone significant development in recent years. Modern technologies are lowering the barriers to entry into...

Human-robot collaboration - but safe!

Without robot systems, today's production applications would be unthinkable. They ensure productivity and quality, and perform heavy and dangerous tasks. Since industrial robot systems are assessed as high-risk, protection concepts are usually designed in such a way that robots and humans work separately in terms of location and/or time. A matter...
