The process involves the retrieval of objects randomly located inside containers using three-dimensional vision systems. These systems can be of different types, such as laser sensor combined with a camera (sheet of light) or an area scanner (stereoscopic vision) equipped with integrated pattern illuminators. These sensors can be mounted in a fixed position, on controlled axes or on board of robots.
After the picking, the objects are subsequently loaded into machine tools or other units.
A key element of this solution is the use of proprietary software, which is integrated with third-party libraries and hardware. This software plays a crucial role as it enables precise and coordinated management of all phases of the picking operation
Furthermore, the robots are assisted by artificial intelligence software, which automatically calculates the entrance, pick-up and exit trajectories to/from the container. This adds a significant level of precision and efficiency to the entire process.
