Robotic bin picking

Wednesday, 01 April, 2009 | Supplied by: ABB Australia Pty Ltd


ABB has introduced robotic bin picking technology that can locate and disseminate jumbled and randomly situated materials from bins.

The system utilises the vision guidance software of partner Braintech and the powerful IRC 5 robot controller developed by ABB.

Random bin picking is considered almost mundane work for a human, but is really quite a challenge for a robot, given the potential for collisions and the challenges associated with finding the right part to pick in a container with hundreds of parts.

There are many benefits — faster productivity, improved quality, reduced capital and maintenance costs, all leading to increased profitability.

The system is packaged as part of ABB’s TrueView vision guidance product line.
