Post Body

Hey folks,

Our manufacturing plant produce special hardware and we have a lot of medium sized robotic cells that mostly pick and place items. They are completely blind and sometimes we either need to reprogram (which takes a lot of time) or stop the production if arm misses the item due to being blind.

Do you have similar problems? If so, how are you coping with it?

Is this pick and place for assembly or manufacturing step?

I know of one blind robot on a conveyor transfer job - it is not in assembly. If it misses and the entire movement is for nothing, we just don't care.
