MRC ROBOT CELL: Bin-pickingthe clever way to reach into the box
The MRC robot cell is designed to load and link-up our machine tools. At AMB, we will present a manufacturing system for the machining of planetary gears in the agricultural industry. This system combines turning on a VL 4 with hobbing of the tooth profiles on a CLC 200 from EMAG SU.
For a long time, the separation of raw-parts from the bulk material was only possible manually or using complex mechanical and usually very workpiece-specific solutions such as vibratory conveyors. The chaotic arrangement of the components prevented automated handling directly from the container.
With the new MRC robot cell, EMAG presents a modular automation platform for machine loading and link-up. Thanks to the optional bin picking module, it can also be used to handle raw-parts in bulk in an efficient and resource-saving manner.
ADVANTAGES OF MRC BIN-PICKING ROBOT CELLS
» Flexibility:
Fast changeover between different component families, raw-parts and machining processes by using a robot with camera system and optional gripper quick-change system.
» Volume: Virtually noiseless picking up of components by the robot, no annoying noises due to mechanical separation.
MINIMAL FOOTPRINT:
» Economic advantage:
Reduced worker constraints for manual pre-alignment or other preliminary work on raw-parts and, thus, greater autonomy.
» Integration:
Simple integration of handling processes, such as aligning, cleaning or measuring components.
Compact system with design freedom.
Installation area approx. 2.7 m x 5.1 m.
The MRC robot cell off ers the option of integrating numerous additional functionalities:
» Blow off
» Measuring
» Buff ering
» Labeling/marking
» Read code
