With the rise of collaborative robots (cobots) over the past decade, it looked like the robotics industry would be segmented into two divisions one for the high-speed industrial robots with which we’re all familiar and the other for cobots. Some robotic technology suppliers would, of course, offer both types of robots while others would specialize in one area or the other.
Then something interesting happened. Industrial robot suppliers began experimenting with the concept of bringing collaborative robot capabilities to industrial robots. I first saw this displayed as a concept project in a Mitsubishi Electric booth at a trade show five or six years ago. At the time, I thought this concept would proliferate quickly; however, I did not see it again until I attended the SPS (Smart Production Solutions) event in Nuremberg, Germany in 2019. At this event, it was agai
Yaskawa and Realtime Robotics have created a joint solution to increase versatility in material handling and fulfilment automation. The companies say the combination of high-performance Yaskawa Motoman robots with Realtime Robotics’ motion-planning technology improves precision and cycle times for a variety of high-value logistics applications, including piece picking and mixed-case palletizing.
Specifically, Realtime Robotics’ motion-planning technology and associated perception capabilities enable users to place high-performance Motoman robots closer to each other to increase and optimize task efficiency. The joint multi-robot architecture supports a streamlined process of deploying robotic solutions that eliminates the need for programming interference zones. The result is robotic work cells with a smaller footprint and higher output.
Realtime Robotics, Inc.: Yaskawa and Realtime Robotics Add Value to Automated Material Handling
BOSTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / January 26, 2021 / The combination of the high performance Motoman robots with Realtime Robotics core motion planning technology delivers improved precision and cycle times to a variety of high value logistics applications, including piece picking and mixed case palletizing.
The well-known challenge for warehouse automation solution providers is to increase productivity, while reducing the cost and time to deploy. With the core technology of Realtime Robotics software and perception capabilities, high performance Motoman robots can be placed closer to each other to increase and optimize task efficiency. Furthermore, the joint multi-robot architecture empowers a streamlined, simpler process of deploying robotic solutions that eliminates the need for programming interference zones. The result is robotic work cells with a smaller footprint and higher output.
