…which allowing for end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) weight, means it can easily palletize cartons or cases in the 22-25 kg range, using wizard-like software to design pallet patterns and in effect configure, rather than program a solution, said Chris Caldwell, product manager with Yaskawa Motoman. While there are robotics applications with high variability that call for advanced vision software from partners,…
