Clear Automation Deploys A SCARA Robot To Pick From Two FlexFeeders
Clear Automation is an award-winning certified integrator for Adept Technology, Inc. We are also one of their Preferred Packaging Partners. We designed and built this custom workcell to pick and place a medical diagnostic product. Test strips are delivered in bulk and are loaded manually into two FlexFeeders. A camera above each feeder locates the strips on the belts and identifies those test strips that are right-side-up. The robot picks those strips and places them into an indexing conveyor between the two feeders. The conveyor transfers the strips to the downstream processes. As the robot picks strips from one feeder, the other feeder presents new strips to the camera. Strips that are not picked are recirculated and are presented to the camera again. As the feeders are depleted, they are refilled automatically from a bulk hopper. We delivered three of these systems. Each runs 55 parts per minute, 24 hours per day.

EML2322L Robot Design Competition Day (2)
University of Florida Design and Manufacturing Lab Summer 2008. Objective: Build a RC robot that will pick up four tennis balls (2 on 12 inch pvc pipe, 2 on 4 inch pvc pipe) and drop them in a bucket. Our robot was actually the fastest, but each ball you drop constitutes a 60 second penalty so we ended up 2nd in our section of 4.

The last step is the step that keeps on giving. Once you’ve standardized on Adept Technology’s high speed flexible robotics and packaging automation software, your system will continue to adapt with you and the changes that are inevitable in packaging lines. Part changes, changes in lot size, short run production cycles, – all are easily handled.

Murata Robot Gyro-Sensors
Even robots can fall in love. Gyro-sensors allow Muratas robots to stay steady on a 2cm wide balance beam (despite their obvious attraction to one another). For more stories like this or go to www.VideoResourceLibrary.com.
