Bin Picking

E-COMMERCE AND FULFILLMENT GROWTH DEMANDS COLLABORATIVE INNOVATION FOR AUTOMATED BIN PICKING AND PACKAGING

 

Streamline your material handling, packaging, palletizing, bin picking, labeling, and kitting operations with collaborative robots. Relieve workers from repetitive tasks and heavy lifting by automating material handling with lightweight collaborative robot arms. Automation helps you combat rising costs of new product packaging and shortened product life cycles. Moreover, it makes it easy to keep up with seasonal peaks despite labor shortages.

Innovative cobots with advanced grippers, computer vision, and machine-learning systems pick up a wide range of objects, even in unstructured environments like bins or totes. Additionally, integrated SKU scanning and the ability to handle pouches or products of nearly any size or shape simplify e-commerce, fulfillment, warehousing, logistics, and supply chain operations. Consequently, these technologies make processes faster and more efficient.

The UR robot’s intuitive, easy-to-program interface is perfect for small-volume applications and highly repetitive tasks. You can reprogram and redeploy the robot as needed across your operations. If your workflow changes, quickly and easily deploy the material handling robotic arm in new setups due to its small size and lightweight design.

 

Universal Robots + Apera

Apera AI’s Vue robotic vision software gives Universal Robots human-like sight and perception, helping them complete difficult tasks like bin picking, assembly, and packaging. Powered by AI, Vue makes your UR-based work cells faster, smarter, and more productive.

Vue software, based on the latest AI and machine learning technologies, allows your robots to perform faster and smarter path planning and object recognition.

4D Vision goes beyond 3D capabilities

Apera’s AI-powered vision technology goes beyond 3D capabilities. Our customers gain speed, intelligence and perception in their workcells, and can do it with simpler hardware than 3D systems.

How does 4D Vision work?

2D cameras capture the scene, and our proprietary AI technology processes those images. The AI combines the images into a 3D understanding of the scene, identifying single objects as pickable.

The Apera Vue software embedded in the robot’s controller provides pose estimation and path planning information. The robot plans a safe path that avoids collisions. Because the AI neural network, trained using CAD drawings or 3D scans, recognizes the object, these steps happen very quickly.

The robot picks and places the object with precise and accurate results.
