The video begins with an introduction to screw separation and the role it plays in various industrial applications. It explains that screw separation is an important process that enables the efficient and accurate handling of screws. The FlexiBowl system, an innovative device specifically designed for screw separation, is then introduced. It is emphasized that the FlexiBowl system can be used in a variety of industrial applications due to its flexibility and precision. The next section of the video demonstrates the process of screw separation with the FlexiBowl system. It shows how the system picks up the screws, separates them individually and then makes them available for further processing. During the demonstration process, the high speed and efficiency of the FlexiBowl system is emphasized. It is emphasized that the system is able to process a large number of screws in a short time, which leads to a significant increase in productivity. It is emphasized that the system not only improves the efficiency and accuracy of screw handling, but also increases the overall productivity and performance of industrial assembly lines.

In the application, plastic components are gripped by the Delta robot, specifically sucked up and placed in a fixture in which the individual components are joined. The challenge in this application was the precise processing of the camera data. The robot has a pick cycle time of 1-2 seconds. The components are jogged randomly.

In a customer test in the igus Customer Testing Area (CTA), a gluing process was simulated using a Dobot CRA5 robot. Instead of using a syringe and adhesive, the test involved tracing the contour only. This simulation demonstrates the precise motion control and repeatability of the Dobot CRA5. The robot follows the specified contour exactly, showcasing its potential use in real gluing applications to achieve consistent and accurate results. This type of simulation is particularly useful for testing and optimizing the robot’s capabilities before applying actual adhesive in practical scenarios.

In this customer application, a traditional task from the functional and quality inspection domain has been automated using a collaborative robot. Previously, this task required a dedicated worker. Thanks to the deployment of the cobot, this worker can now be assigned to more complex and value-added tasks. The cobot takes over the repetitive and monotonous inspection processes with high precision and reliability. The investment in the cobot was relatively low and paid off completely within a few months, leading to significant cost savings and increased operational efficiency. Additionally, the cobot improves working conditions by relieving employees from tedious tasks, allowing them to develop further and take on more demanding responsibilities.

In this application, a pick-and-place solution was tested for a customer using an igus linear robot, a camera, and a conveyor belt. The individual components had to communicate seamlessly to ensure the metal part could be reliably picked up from the conveyor belt and accurately sorted. The integration of the camera for detecting and positioning the metal part, along with the precise control of the linear robot, played a crucial role in ensuring the system’s high reliability and efficiency.

In this specific customer application, a cost-effective solution for loading and unloading a laser engraving machine was sought and successfully implemented. The igus ReBeL robot takes on the task of picking up the parts to be engraved and precisely placing them into the machine. Subsequently, a linear system equipped with a laser engraving head carries out the engraving process. Once the engraving is complete, the robot removes the processed part from the machine and places it for further processing or packaging.

Thanks to the low cost of the cobot, the investment in this automated solution pays off in a very short time, making it particularly attractive for companies looking to reduce their production costs while simultaneously increasing efficiency.
