Features
Secures repeatability within 0.1 mm for insertion handling
Configured with multiple tool types within the gripper/hand for flexible handling
Rapidly processes infeed verification and outfeed verification
Supports stacking configurations matched to the shipping method and required quantities
Results
| Key Benefits | Product and bushing insert verification during take-out using in-gripper functionality
Fast stacking for cases where parts are inserted directly into shipping trays
Prevents safety incidents in high-temperature mold operations |
|---|---|
| Client Feedback | Safety incidents caused by high heat during part removal and bushing insertion were resolved, reducing operator stress and improving morale. Handling small parts had previously caused finger pinching and stress, and the automation reduced both. Shipping-case insertion and stacking time was significantly reduced. |

Recommended Use Cases
Box Pick-and-Place Automation Solution using a Box Picker Gripper
Process Overview This deployment is a box pick-and-place automation solution using a Box Picker Gripper. As the name suggests, the Box Picker Gripper is designed to pick a wide range of objects. In this solution, it enables stable picking even when plastic boxes are open-top (without lids), improving handling reliability in box transfer operations.
Bumper Gate Cutting and Transfer Automation using Two Yaskawa Robots
Process Overview This transfer automation solution uses two Yaskawa robots and vacuum grippers to perform gate cutting on automotive bumper injection molded parts and transfer them to a conveyor tray. The system accurately picks curved and flexible bumper parts, performs gate cutting, and applies conveyor tracking technology to load parts onto continuously moving conveyor trays. By enabling continuous operation without stoppage or idle time, the solution maintains high productivity throughout the process.
Machining Support for a WIA Turning Center using Two DENSO Robots ⚙️🏭
Process Overview This automation solution uses two DENSO robots—VM60B1 (6-axis vertical articulated robot) and HS055 (SCARA robot)—to automate raw material loading, turning-center machining of plastic parts, and a downstream press-fit (crimping) operation. By integrating material loading, machining support, and press-fit handling into a single automated workflow, the system minimizes control points while improving overall productivity.
