VISION-GUIDED ROBOTICS Vision-Guided Robotics

THE GLOBAL STANDARD FOR VISION-GUIDED ROBOTICS ❚ SIMPLE INTERFACE ❚ DIRECT CONNECTIONS Easily establish connections by selecting the robot manufacturer Calibration performed with a single click ❚ POWERFUL SEARCH TOOL Equipped with step-by-step interface for vision-guided robotics Highly stable dete

Position detection for screw tightening Packaging machined parts The position coordinates are output in order, starting with the upper-left part. Misalignment is detected and the corrected position is output to the robot. Positioning during quality inspection Grip correction during circuit board loading Accurate position and orientation values are output. The position coordinates of multiple parts are output simultaneously.

❚ SIMPLE INTERFACE EXTREMELY SIMPLE INTERFACE FOR VISION-GUIDED ROBOTICS Adjust camera settings such as the shutter speed and camera sensitivity. Select the manufacturer of the robot to connect with. Select the application Perform auto-calibration. Configure the search settings. Teach pick position. A variety of operations are supported in addition to the standard picking, placing, and grip misalignment correction. Setup complete Easy Setup Menu There’s no need to perform the bothersome manual calibration or calculations that are characteristic of conventional robot vision setup. Quickly...

❚ DIRECT CONNECTIONS OUTSTANDING COMPATIBILITY WITH A WIDE VARIETY OF ROBOT MANUFACTURERS Select the robot manufacturer. ABB Connect to standard robot controllers by selecting from a list of common manufacturers, or select custom for connecting with specialized robot controllers. Robot connection settings SHIBAURA MACHINE UNIVERSAL ROBOTS YASKAWA MOTOMAN Easily verify connection ROBOT JOGGING CAN BE CONTROLLED FROM THE VISION SYSTEM Robot vision setup program provided Robot programs for use in configuring vision system for vision-guided robotics are available from KEYENCE. This enables...

❚ AUTO-CALIBRATION EASILY CALIBRATE THE ROBOT AND VISION SYSTEM WITH THE CLICK OF A BUTTON Common issues with conventional methods (manual methods) • Manual calibration takes a long time • Accuracy varies between operators • Difficult to readjust for installation misalignment • Difficult to reproduce the image in different installation locations due to variations in ambient conditions Solutions provided with KEYENCE vision-guided robotics • asy operation with a single click jogging E robot to all required locations • igh accuracy regardless of operator H • uick calibration to fix issues...

❚ SAMPLE PROGRAM CREATION FUNCTION SIMPLIFIED SUPPORT FOR VISION-GUIDED ROBOT OPERATIONS Challenges with conventional models • reating a robot program that C works together with a vision system is difficult. • rograms need to be recreated P whenever robots from a different manufacturer are used. • peration verification for a O combined vision system and robot is difficult. KEYENCE vision-guided robots solve these problems • obot programs can be created R automatically and easily by specifying the operation flow. • reate programs catered to any C manufacturer simply by specifying the robot...

❚ POWERFUL SEARCH TOOL HIGHLY EVOLVED SEARCH PROVIDES EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE AND STABLE OPERATION CONVENTIONAL PROBLEMS • It isn’t possible to prepare a clean master workpiece. • It is difficult to extract the ideal profile due to unstable lighting Search tool with ultimate performance, speed, and accuracy under poor conditions This tool uses profile information extracted from the target during search. The target can be searched stably even if changes occur such as chips, contrast reduction and size changes. This tool offers high search performance also as a position adjustment reference for...
