Process layout
This application case features an automated stacking solution for food accessory packaging, utilizing the Universal Robots UR10 and the OnRobot RG6 gripper. The system is designed to handle over 1,000 different types of accessories, neatly stacking them according to preset quantities to streamline the final boxing process. By automating these auxiliary tasks, the solution significantly reduces the total time required for packaging operations.

Workflow
| STEP 1. | Infeed: Food accessories are fed into the system. |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | Identification: The barcode reader recognizes the product type and information. |
| STEP 3. | Handling: The robot picks up the product and stacks it in the designated area. |
| STEP 4. | Alignment: The stacked products are precisely aligned to facilitate easy boxing. |
Features
Compact Installation and High Cost-Effectiveness
Minimal Layout Changes: Collaborative robots can be integrated into existing lines without major structural modifications.
Low Initial Investment: The compact footprint minimizes installation and infrastructure costs.
Process Efficiency: Adding the automated auxiliary stacking process significantly shortens the overall packaging cycle time.
Increased Versatility with Multi-Purpose Gripper
Flexible Handling: Uses a long-stroke scissor-type gripper to handle a wide range of product sizes and shapes.
Agile Adaptability: Seamlessly adapts to new product models or changes in packaging specifications.

Recommended Solution
Cart Towing and Elevator Navigation using OMRON LD-250
This solution implements cart towing and cross-floor transport using OMRON's LD-250. The OMRON LD-250 is an Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) that maps its environment and navigates along optimal paths, adapting to real-time changes on-site. While the LD-250 has a direct payload of 250kg, it can move even heavier loads when configured for towing. Its ability to interface with elevators allows for a much broader scope of automated cart transport across multiple floors of a building.
Mobile Phone Box Packaging using Two Collaborative Robots (M0609, TM5) and OnRobot Grippers
This application case demonstrates a collaborative process between the Doosan Robotics M0609 and the Techman Robot TM5-900 to automate mobile phone box packaging. By integrating a variety of specialized grippers, the system can seamlessly handle the diverse components required for mobile phone packaging—from delicate manuals to the handsets themselves.
Bolt Fastening Automation Using Hanwha Momentum HCR-12A
This application is a solution that automates bolt fastening using two Hanwha Momentum HCR-12A collaborative robots. Bolt fastening often leads to task failure even if the position is slightly off, and products can be damaged or misassembled if not assembled with appropriate force. The high positioning precision of the HCR-12A minimizes errors and allows for the task to be performed.
