Robotics Insights. Improving robots’ ability to grip and handle objects has been a major challenge for manufacturers because it limits what they can do on the plant floor. To make this switch possible, these companies relied on people working on an assembly line. Courtesy: University of Washington. “We

Vision-guided robot (VGR) insights. Vision-guided robot (VGR) technology has grown thanks to advanced in RGBD cameras, which allow the robot to accurately acquire 3D models. VGRs also are more flexible than traditional robots and the vision systems can make them safer, as well. Flexibility is another benefit of VGRs.

The Wayville facility will expand VAILO’s production output, with more than five times the manufacturing floorspace while incorporating automation and robotics on the assembly line. Mr Hickmann said VAILO would shortly put its Kent Town offices on the market and would lease back the site until Wayville’s fit out was completed.

In addition to various methods of surface scanning, some of the leading automotive manufacturers (along with others in aerospace, energy and electronics) are using computed tomography (CT) to inspect deep inside complex components to ensure they are fit to send to the assembly line. Now, CT scanning is expensive.
