SERVICES OFFERED BY THE ASSET
Binpicking applications for different industrial parts
Different types of binpicking applications can be designed, implemented, and tested for several parts recognized by the vision systems
Diagnosis and prognosis systems
Thanks to vision systems, manufacturing process information integration, and collaborative robots, specific failure forecasting and diagnosing applications can be developed (at both process level and robot or machine status)
Human and robot surroundings recognition
A collaborative work cell is available to design, implement, or test collaborative and cooperative manufacturing operations. Also, this service offers the possibility of testing industrial safety strategies for protection fences-free industrial scenarios thanks to several installed cameras
