Process layout

This solution features a modular assembly line developed using Vention’s modular workstations, designed for easy integration into existing production processes and flexible reconfiguration. The system allows for the seamless rearrangement of peripheral workstations around a central assembly hub. By combining Vention’s belt-actuator-driven Range Extender with a collaborative robot, the line successfully automates part picking and assembly, utilizing a circulating pallet system for efficient material infeed and outfeed.

Components

Robot
  • Robot: Universal Robots UR5e

    • Type: 6-axis articulated collaborative robot

    • Payload: 5kg

    • Reach: 850mm

    • Weight: 20.6kg

    • Repeatability: ±0.03mm

  • Range Extender: Vention Belt Actuator (7th Axis)

  • Workstation: Vention Modular Frame System

Workflow

STEP 1.Recognition: Parts are identified using a vision camera.
STEP 2.Picking: The robot picks up the identified parts.
STEP 3.Assembly: Parts are assembled with components delivered via the circulating pallet.
STEP 4.Pickup: The robot picks up the fully assembled workpiece.
STEP 5.Discharge: The finished assembly is moved to the discharge area.

Features

Modular Design for Easy Installation and Reconfiguration

  • DIY Modular System: Features a modular design and simple assembly process similar to ready-to-assemble furniture.

  • High Durability: Built with a robust design and high-quality hardware for long-term industrial reliability.

  • Rapid Changeover: The workstation layout can be connected or rearranged to change processes within 15 minutes.

  • Expanded Reach: Utilizes a range extender to significantly increase the robot's effective workspace.

Automated Assembly Applicable to Diverse Fields

  • Integrated Automation: Features built-in vision solutions and a circulating pallet system to automate the entire picking, assembly, and discharge sequence.

Simplified System Implementation via Vention URCap

  • Plug-and-Play: Operates directly through the UR teach pendant without the need for custom PLC boxes or complex additional programming.

Results

Key Benefits
Successfully developed an integrated assembly line where the range extender and articulated robot pick and assemble parts, while the circulating pallet facilitates seamless material inflow and outflow.
Client Feedback
