Servo-Robot offers hybrid sensing system
Servo-Robot has developed a hybrid sensing system for measuring, locating and detecting in robotic pick-and-place applications.
The Robopal intelligent hybrid sensing system is a non-contact digital part locator and measurement system, designed to increase industrial process reliability and reduce manufacturing costs.
Robopal is designed to work hand-in-hand with robots, to cope with unpredictable changes in their working environment and to help them react according to the information measured by the sensors.
Using a dual laser stripe, the system calculates accurate 3D position and orientation measurements in a single snapshot to reduce the overall measurement process cycle time.
Robopal also includes an ultrasonic sensor that can detect object presence and distance, and then send this information to the robotic system.
The control unit is embedded in the laser camera, simplifying integration.
Also embedded in Robopal is a webcam, to provide video and audio information to a PC via Ethernet for remote human monitoring.
Optimum viewing of the work area is achieved via the integrated illumination devices inside Robopal.
Robopal is available in three models to accommodate your material handling requirements.
