Delta robots are often used for high-speed conveyor picking, while SCARA robots provide fast and repeatable horizontal handling. Six-axis articulated robots offer greater flexibility for orienting and packing products, and collaborative robots can support adaptable picking and packing applications in compact workspaces.
Yes. FANUC robots can use iRPickTool, conveyor tracking and robotic vision to locate and pick products from moving conveyors. Multiple robots, cameras and conveyors can be coordinated as part of a high-speed pick and place system.
Yes. FANUC iRVision Bin Picking helps robots identify and retrieve arranged or randomly positioned items. The system can use vision, interference avoidance and part-management tools to support automated bin picking applications.
FANUC packaging robots can automate product sorting, grouping, tray loading, cartoning, case packing, food handling, inspection, order preparation and end-of-line material handling. Robots can also be integrated with palletizing and automated storage and retrieval systems.
The right robot depends on the product, required payload, reach, cycle time, work area, sanitation requirements and packaging process. A FANUC automation expert or Authorized Robotics System Integrator can help evaluate the application and recommend the appropriate robot, vision system, software and end-of-arm tooling.
