Robot Vision Loading & Unloading System
A multi-joint robot system using machine vision for flexible part recognition, loading and unloading.
Production challenge
Parts arriving in variable positions are difficult to automate with fixed mechanical handling, especially when the same robot must load and unload a machining or assembly process continuously.
Dading solution
A multi-joint robot uses machine vision to identify part position, select the correct pick strategy and complete loading and unloading. The gripper, camera arrangement and recovery logic are engineered around the real presentation conditions.

Engineering priorities
The details that protect output and quality.
The final machine architecture is confirmed against customer samples, drawings, applicable standards and the agreed acceptance protocol.
Vision-based localisation
The camera identifies usable parts and provides robot coordinates for each pick.
Application-specific gripper
End-of-arm tooling is designed for component geometry, surface and machine interface.
Safe machine tending
Interlocks coordinate the robot, process machine and operator access.
Recovery logic
Software manages no-pick, misplaced-part and downstream-not-ready conditions.
