Easy and cost-effective automation is the theme of the RARUK Automation<\/a><\/strong> display at this year\u2019s UKIVA Machine Vision Conference.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The products and systems the company sells in the UK have been carefully selected to be freely combined to provide the best solution for any given application.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To demonstrate the potential of this off-the-shelf approach, RARUK Automation will be showcasing two systems, the basis of which are UR e-Series collaborative robots.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These latest generation machines enable faster development for a wider variety of applications, even easier programming and, of course, compliance with CAT3 PLd.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three Robotiq innovations are included on the first URe demonstration \u2013 the Robotiq Vision System that is designed specifically to work with the UR and is equally easy to set-up and integrate and the new Robotiq Hand-e gripper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As its name suggests, this product is the first UR+ certified electric gripper ready for the e-Series. High accuracy combined with a 50mm parallel stroke makes it perfect for precision assembly tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also new is the Robotiq Force Copilot whose sensing functions increase flexibility and reliability in machine-tending, assembly, finishing and pick & place applications. A suite of set-up tools allows the user to hand-guide the robot on complex trajectories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The software makes it easy to place objects precisely in jigs, trays and chucks and facilitates assembly applications through alignment, indexing and insertion functions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, the intuitive interface unlocks finishing applications, with adjustable adaptive compliance and constant force for all robot axes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second RARUK Automation UR e-Series demonstration features the latest, top-of-the-range addition from Pick-it. This is the new M-HD high definition 3D camera for the detection of almost any small and medium sized objects with even higher accuracy, whatever their material of manufacture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pick-it allows any camera supported automation application to be built without expert help. There\u2019s no need for complicated programming, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pick-it guides the robot to see, pick and place products from bins, boxes, pallets and tables onto a CNC machine, assembly line, conveyor belt, welding station or work bench.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
