It is no secret that robots have become a common staple of the factory floor. With the ability to attach nearly unlimited custom grippers, and collaborative robots that don’t require safety guarding, robots are finding their way into more and more applications every year. Being able to program a robot to make smooth, quick, and safe movements requires an understanding of how a robot can be commanded to move from point A to point B. I deal with robots every day; we integrate our machines with Fanuc robots to create casepackers and CEL-5s for your everyday use medicines such as Tylenol. How we do such a thing? Products come down a conveyor and we use servos to make a collation so our Fanuc robots can pick them up and put them in boxes. Below is a video of one a couple of our machines.
