How it works?
As a reminder, flexible feeding helps manufacturers cope with the assembly, inspection, machining or kitting of products that are becoming more and more varied. A typical flexible feeding system contains a hopper, a flexible feeder, a control system (camera) and a robot. The camera takes images of the feeding platform, which in our case enables the intelligent control system EYE+ to communicate the coordinates of pickable parts to the robot. In addition, EYE+ not only manages the vision but also the quantity of parts to be supplied, the feed rate, the hopper management and the platform operation.
Using the configuration wizard, EYE+ Studio set up in 3 easy steps:
• Vision configuration
• Create a new recipe
• Hand-eye calibration
During production, EYE+ controls all the
different components of the application
(Asycube, hopper, vision and robot).
1. Switch on the hopper to feed the Asycube
2. Manage the right vibrations of Asycube
3. Detect correctly oriented parts
4. Pick parts from platform by robot.
EYE+ Studio:
1. Candidates Selection; Candidates Classification
Simply swipe left or right, good and bad parts.
2. Feeding Configuration; Platform vibrations Tuning
Complete control of your Asycube from EYE+ Studio.
3. Feeding Configuration; Vibration Sequence
Easily define the optimal sequence to spread parts.
Advantages of EYE+
