Process layout
This logistics automation solution utilizes Mech-Mind 3D Vision and the Yaskawa GP8 robot to automate the order picking of various unstructured objects.
By leveraging a highly cost-effective 3D vision system that recognizes both the position and shape of products, the system can perform picking tasks without additional manual teaching—even when new products are added or existing ones are changed. The project was specifically designed to automate the picking of irregular items in logistics center picking zones.

Workflow
| STEP 1. | Recognition: The 3D vision system identifies the individual shapes and locations of products randomly stacked in a bin/box. |
|---|---|
| STEP 2. | Transfer: The robot picks the identified product using a vacuum gripper and transfers it to the discharge conveyor. |
Features
Rapid and Accurate Sorting Performance
Industrial-Grade Speed: Leverages high-performance industrial robots for swift operational throughput.
Efficient Cycle Times: Sorting an individual item takes approximately 3 to 4 seconds (variable based on performance tuning).
Parallel Processing: Executes vision recognition simultaneously with robot movement to drastically reduce overall cycle times.
Unbeatable Vision Value & Performance
Breakthrough Pricing: A high-performance 3D vision solution at a highly competitive price point in the early 20 million KRW range.
Deep Learning Recognition: Exceptional ability to recognize diverse objects using AI-based 3D vision.
Shape Agnostic: Capable of identifying and picking items regardless of complexity or irregular geometry.
Robust in Difficult Conditions: Maintains high recognition accuracy even for dark-colored products or surfaces with high light reflection, such as packaging tape.
Intelligent Motion Planning: Easily performs collision avoidance and handles dense stacking through effective path planning (compatible with most major robot brands).
Results
| Key Benefits | Labor Savings: Significant reduction in personnel required for manual order picking.
Accuracy: Drastic decrease in picking errors (Human Error) during fulfillment.

|---|---|
| Client Feedback | We previously delayed automating our order picking due to the sheer variety of product types and shapes. However, thanks to deep learning, we can now sort items without the need for manual registration, which has exponentially increased our automation efficiency. The decision was easy once we saw the accurate recognition rates and the affordable price of the vision system. |

Recommended Solution
Box Handling Solution using Hyundai HH020 and HRVision
This sorting automation solution utilizes the Hyundai HH020 robot and the HRVision 3D vision solution to automate the manual task of recognizing text on the tops of boxes and transferring them to a conveyor in a specific sequence. By leveraging the high-speed recognition capabilities of HRVision, the system can capture and process product images even while the objects are in motion, ensuring seamless and continuous operation.
Beverage Pallet Unwrapping Solution using Three Hyundai HS220 Robots
This industrial robot solution utilizes three Hyundai HS220 robots to automate the hazardous task of manually removing stretch wrap and straps from beverage pallets. Previously, this process posed a significant risk of safety accidents because workers had to use manual cutters on pallets with high stacking heights. Although the complexity of the task made automation difficult in the past, Hyundai Robotics' specialized solution has made it possible. Additionally, the system neatly manages residual waste, minimizing the need for operator intervention and management.
Press Machine Tending for Thin Plate Sheets using Yaskawa Robots
This automation solution utilizes YASKAWA robots equipped with vacuum grippers to handle thin plates, automating the workpiece feeding process and significantly enhancing the safety of press operations. Due to the nature of press processes—characterized by extremely short cycle times and high-risk environments—industrial accidents involving human operators are frequent. By employing robot automation, particularly with vacuum grippers which are far more effective at handling thin plates than manual labor, this solution simultaneously improves production throughput and workplace safety.
