In this application for a customer in the food industry, spices needed to be transferred from a tray into a carton. The challenge was the high precision required due to the tight tolerances. However, this was easily overcome with an igus gantry robot and a flow gripper. The gantry robot enabled precise and repeatable positioning of the spices, while the flow gripper ensured gentle handling of the delicate products. By combining these technologies, an efficient and reliable solution was achieved for the customer, significantly enhancing both product quality and production speed.

咖啡自动贩卖机为顾客带来全新的购物体验 

This fully automated vending machine in the Riem Arcaden in Munich creates a new coffee shopping experience.

Customers can compose their own individual coffee selection using a touchscreen. A gantry robot picks the selected varieties and places them in the dispenser.

The challenge was to ensure that the gantry robot moves fast enough so that customers only have to wait a short time. At the same time, the prerequisite was that the system should operate as quietly as possible. Thanks to the installed motion plastic components from igus, both requirements could be met.

In this machine tending application, the handling of the components was automated with a robolink robot arm. Manual operations are no longer necessary. Splash water is not an issue due to the use of waterproof joints. The robolink SW has splash water resistance according to protection class IP 44. Its connecting elements are made of stainless steel and the motors with encoders comply with protection class IP 65.

The suction lifter is an in-house development by the customer. The movement sequence of the robot arm is controlled by means of a self-programmed controller.

Robô de coleta e colocação de cápsulas de café

咖啡包拾放机器人

rezemo GmbH develops and produces innovative packaging solutions based on 100% renewable raw materials in order to create alternatives for the use of fossil plastics and aluminum, especially in the area of disposable packaging. One packaging solution is coffee capsules made of wood. Consumers and coffee roasters can continue to enjoy and offer the convenience product coffee capsules without a guilty conscience - without microplastics, proven to be 100% bio-based.

One challenge is the sealing of the capsules. In coffee preparation, the coffee capsules are subjected to high water pressure in the capsule machine. The pressure behind the capsule must be held and channeled into it. This is where the seal comes into play. In the case of conventional aluminum capsules, silicones are used for sealing; in the case of plastic capsules, pliable plastics are used. Rezemo relies on 100% renewable materials and has chosen natural rubber.

In production, rezemo relies on low-cost automation. The production line initially relied on fully manual feeding and removal of the capsules into and out of the metering process. To automate the removal of the capsules after the dosing process, rezemo opted for a handling solution that can approach several fixed points as quickly and precisely as possible with high repeatability.

A 2-axis line gantry from igus is used, together with the dryve D1 control system. Inside the plant, the capsules are provided with an external and circumferential seal made of natural rubber. The line has a capacity of approx. 43 capsules per minute. The line gantry, equipped with a vacuum gripper, is used to remove the capsules from the dosing process and then stack them in rows on a timed conveyor belt, which then moves through a drying tunnel with the stacked capsules. The entire system is controlled by a Raspberry Pi single board computer and its GPIO signal pins. Using Python scripts, we are able to flexibly read out various sensor signals and control movements by means of pneumatic cylinders as well as DC and stepper motors.

The system has now completed several million cycles and is running smoothly. One focus was on the integration into the existing Python-based control system. The line gantry from igus together with the dryve D1 controller is a very good solution here. In particular, the good documentation and the support helped a lot in the project to integrate the control into the previous concept with the Raspberry Pi, without having to purchase an expensive higher-level control for the plant.

Another decisive criterion was the lubricant-free storage of the handling. The system is used to produce consumer goods for packaging food, so it is essential that no operating materials are transferred to the coffee capsules and contaminate them.

Price also played an important role for the start-up. The investment for low-cost automation was low. This allowed the production capacity to be expanded piece by piece.

Automated handling of snail shells

Automatisiertes Handling von Schneckenhäusern

In this particular customer application, the task was to transport snail shells to various positions within a cycle time defined by the customer. The main challenge was selecting an appropriate end effector, as the snail shells needed to remain undamaged throughout the process.

After careful consideration and analysis of the requirements, the decision was made to use a SoftGripper. This type of gripper is characterized by its flexibility and adaptability, allowing it to conform to the shape of the delicate snail shells. This not only ensures safe transportation but also minimizes the risk of damage.

The choice of the SoftGripper was crucial for the success of the application, as conventional grippers, due to their rigid structure, would not have been able to handle the fragile snail shells without causing damage. By using the SoftGripper, the required cycle time could be met while preserving the integrity of the snail shells.

Pick and place with large room gantry

Pick and Place mit großem Raumportal

The pick-and-place system for metal components uses a large spatial gantry to enable precise and efficient movements. The end effector, equipped with a camera, identifies and grips the metal parts. The camera provides real-time images that are used to accurately position and handle the components. The system ensures high accuracy and repeatability, making it ideal for industrial applications where precision and speed are critical.

In this video, we present an advanced solution for the automated assembly of ball bearings in production. The setup of the gantry system and the integration of the Epson Scara are shown, as well as the operation of the rotary conveyor and the Variobotic shaker cameras for precise detection and positioning of the ball bearing components. The Schunk and Schmalz grippers are demonstrated in action, handling the ball bearings safely and efficiently. The step feeder supports the process with its precise conveying technique, ensuring that the entire system operates smoothly and efficiently thanks to reliable power and data transmission. The benefits of this solution include increased production speed, reduced scrap, and improved workplace safety. Additionally, a low footprint is ensured, facilitating integration into various production environments.
