…will use the extended-reach, six-axis GP8L robot with robust KEYENCE technology to facilitate quick and precise bin picking, said Yaskawa Motoman. The GP8L offers a 1,636 mm (64.4 in.) horizontal reach, 2,894 mm (113.9 in.) vertical reach and an 8 kg (17.6 lb.) payload capacity. Likewise, the KEYENCE 3D vision system uses pattern projections and structured lighting to accurately and efficiently recognize then pick randomly placed parts, according to the company. Such systems are suitable for part detection and inspection, where 2D data can sometimes fall short due to misalignment, glare, or lack of contrast. Yaskawa said the modular and…

…of the valves, and the second dial uses a Keyence laser system to detect surface defects on the valves, said Kawasaki. R-Series and RoboTire offer peeks at the future To meet the needs of the market, Kawasaki Robotics said it has “continued to optimize its general-purpose robots to to set the benchmark for small-to-medium payload robots” of 3 to 80 kg (6.6 to 176.3 lb.). The latest addition the the R-Series line, the RS025N, will be on display with the recently released RS007N/L and the RS013N models. In addition to increased speeds, the RS025N robot includes a new arm structure…

…for the PLC, HMI and collaborative pick-and-place robot, and Keyence for the vision systems and area scanners. To facilitate learning and experimentation throughout the semester, the robotic cell was specifically designed to enable students to work with and modify the code, the university said. At the end of the term, the staff resets the code to the baseline program, ensuring the same opportunities to the next group of students. This thoughtful approach ensures that every student who utilizes the robotic cell is able to delve deeply into the material and achieve the cell’s full potential. New lab will be incorporated…
