Handling Corrugated Cardboard Boxes using UR10 and OnRobot HEX Sensor

This application case demonstrates a process for handling and stacking corrugated cardboard boxes on pallets using the Universal Robots UR10 and the OnRobot HEX force/torque sensor.

By utilizing the HEX sensor to sense the exact position of the cardboard boxes, the robot can move accurately to pick and transfer the bundles. This eliminates the need for additional alignment jigs or vision solutions.

Components

Robot	Robot: Universal Robots UR10 Type: 6-axis collaborative robot Payload: 10kg / Reach: 1,300mm Repeatability: ±0.1mm / Weight: 28.9kg (IP54 rated) Sensor: OnRobot HEX Sensor High-precision 6-axis force/torque sensor used for position sensing and delicate handling.

Workflow

STEP 1.	Corrugated Cardboard Pallet: Preparation of the pallet loaded with cardboard.
STEP 2.	Position Sensing: The HEX sensor detects the precise location of the cardboard bundles.
STEP 3.	Picking & Transfer: The robot picks the cardboard bundles and transfers them to the designated location.
