Go to application
Low Cost Automation can also be different. In many places, Low Cost Automation means not only cost-effective robotics, but also the avoidance of solutions that would generally be described as "over engineered". In this case, multiple cameras are not used to detect the components, but the camera moves from A to B using an axis.The problem
In order to monitor the wooden construction elements before and during packaging, the camera on the ceiling scans the process. The camera moves to the point where monitoring is required in the current process step. In this way, excess or shortages of the packages can be avoided.The solution
An igus linear axis that can move the camera back and forth without maintenance. The whole thing is characterised by its interoperability with the existing systems, in this case the robot arm.
