Pick & place Sloped Work - Vial bottles from an oblique stocker (cut from 2022 iREX IAI Booth, 08-2)
Original Description:
08-2 Pick and place - Sloped Workpieces - Vial bottles from an oblique stocker (cut from 2022 iREX IAI Booth, 08 Replacement from Vertical Articulated Robot)
Demo Summary:
Demonstration machine for taking out sloped workpieces.
This demo picks and places vial bottles from an oblique stocker onto a flat conveyor.
☝ Eliminate the perception that approaching slopes = articulated robots.
Cartesian robots can easily carry workpieces on inclined surfaces!
Pick-and-place is possible with Cartesian robots and wrist units even if they are not on the same plane.
☝ Cartesian robots + wrist units can reduce costs compared to articulated robots.
(Comparison in Japan)
☝ The size of the safety fence can be reduced.
In addition to the chuck part of the multi-joint robot, considering the overhang of the joint part, there is no choice but to widen the safety fence. Cartesian robots have a limited range of motion, so the safety fence can be kept small.
☝ Realized a high-speed transfer unit that does not use air.
All motorized, long-distance, high-speed transport has been realized.
IFA is used for the X-axis and supports a maximum stroke of 3200[mm] and a maximum speed of 3000[mm/sec].
