Bin Picking

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

 

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

Cobots with innovative grippers, computer vision and machine-learning systems can pick up a wide range of objects even in unstructured environments such as a bins or totes. Easily integrated SKU scanning and the ability to pick up pouches or products of nearly any size or shape make e-commerce, fulfillment, warehousing, logistics and supply chain operations simpler, faster, and more efficient.

The UR robot’s intuitive, easy-to-program interface makes the arm perfect for small-volume applications as well as highly repetitive tasks. You can reprogram and redeploy the robot as needed across your operations. If your work flow changes, the material handling robotic arm can be deployed quickly and easily in new constellations 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 will help make your UR-based work cells faster, smarter and more productive.

Vue software is based on the latest AI and machine learning technologies, which allow for faster and smarter path planning and object recognition by your robots.

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?

The scene is captured by 2D cameras and those images are run through our proprietary AI technology. The images are combined into a 3D understanding of the scene, where single objects are identified as pickable.

The robot is given pose estimation and path planning information through the Apera Vue software embedded in its controller. A safe path that avoids collisions is planned. Because the object is trained into an AI neural network using CAD drawings or 3D scans, these steps can happen very quickly.

The object is picked and placed with precise and accurate results.
