Custom algorithm used to solve challenges with robotic layer forming and de-tray system

Control Engineering

Applied Manufacturing Technologies (AMT) worked with Gojo Industries to create robotic cells: a de-tray and layer forming system. Designing the de-tray and layer forming robotic cells allowed several the engineering team to solve robot speed issues and meet cycle time requirements. Layer forming system.

Understanding the wiring and programming of a labeler application

Control Engineering

This allows for high-speed captures for compact distances that require optimized processing and cycle time. The product pitch distances are often longer and allow for more dedicated time to act upon the input of the product. Compared to the labels, this leaves more time to process and buffer the inputs.
