Picking eyes for robots: Design & Engineering
The Eyes system from OnRobot A/S eliminates the need for expensive fixture carts used to position parts for robotic picking.
Pick-and-place kit simplifies automation
With Universal Robots' ActiNav kit, shops can automate without major integration and programming efforts.
Threading exotic metals: Medical Manufacturing
Picking the threading process for difficult-to-machine materials can be hard.
Pick and choose business opportunities
As a machine shop owner, you can't attend every trade show or event and that's OK.
Productivity Pickup: General Industry Coverage
Pick-and-place robots boost productivity and, say experts, may save U.S. shops.
Improving employee morale: Industry Trends & Analysis
Whether your shop is busy or struggling to survive a downturn, employees are your best asset. We've had to downsize over the past few months, but a good group remains. Many are handling new tasks, but a reengineering of employees' tasks can be beneficial, driving everyone to work smarter, not harder.
Picking low-hanging CNC ‘fruit’: 5-Axis Machining
As someone who visits job shops and manufacturers almost daily, I know why some are thriving, while others struggle. The ones that are thriving have invested and continue to invest in equipment, software, training and consulting services. Those struggling often say, "I would invest more in these areas, but I can't afford them because my competitors keep underbidding me.
TRU TECH T93XM Perimetric Grinder
The T93XM can profile with a standard 1A1 wheel and accommodates several grind styles including wheel profile, plunge, peel, in-feed and thru-feed grinding. The perimetric workholding, unique to TRU TECH, ensures part concentricity to eliminate shank runout without indicating. Ultra-precision accuracy is achieved through the 3-axis, fully programmable configuration with CNC variable speed spindle.
MT-S Spindle Gripper
The MT-S spindle gripper allows continued machined cycles by picking and placing finished components in a temporary part loading tray located within the machining area. The MT-S is stored in the tool magazine like any tool and engaged at the end of each cycle allowing continuous machining until the part loading tray is full.
Robot Pick AI
SIMATIC Robot Pick AI (robot skill) is a pre-trained, deep-learning-based vision software for advanced robotics applications like goods-to-robot order bin picking that provides out-of-the-box cognitive performance for selecting robust pick points (6-DoF grasp poses) for arbitrary "unknown" items at runtime.
HALCON 22.11
The 3D Gripping Point Detection technology is a highlight of HALCON 22.11. It can be used to robustly detect surfaces on any object that are suitable for gripping with suction. In contrast to classic bin-picking applications, this new technology eliminates the need to train object surfaces.
Precision Ball Splines
The line of high-precision ball splines is ideal for high-speed operation in compact spaces such as laboratory automation or semiconductor pick-and-place assembly. They can automate functions that a human might otherwise perform, like opening the cover of a sample jar and pouring it in a test tube.
