BENEFITS OF VISOR® ROBOTIC

Expectations of today’s robotics solutions are steadily rising in the context of Industry 4.0, paired with a simultaneous desire for greater ease-of-use. And this is precisely where the VISOR^®  Robotic demonstrates its outstanding ability.

Available in several versions, the vision sensor offers the perfect solution for a variety of automation tasks.

Designed with integrated and standardized interfaces, VISOR^® Robotic can be easily incorporated in existing installations and systems, and thanks to different calibration methods and flexible data structures, it is also suited to a diverse range of procedures.

WHAT TO EXPECT USING VISOR® ROBOTIC

1.  Reliable Feeding of Material -

VISOR® Robotic, components that are fed in a universal tray or via a supply bin are reliably located and gripped. When loose components are supplied, the sensor not only checks their position but also inspects the free space around the gripper.
The VISOR®  determines both sets of information and sends them to the robot controller via one of the integrated standardized interfaces. 
The  process is then managed based on the information received. 
BENEFITS:
•  Cost advantage due to use of universal tray 
•  Precise feeding, without mechanical alignment 
•  Easy installation of vision sensor through slimline design and  functions tailored to the application.

   2.  Precise Processing of Components -

During robot-guided applications, such as screw positioning, VISOR® Robotic effortlessly detects the pose of components; this allows  the correction of any offset and improves the quality of production. Mechanical effort is reduced, and the production line is consequently more flexible. The VISOR® Robotic concept enables direct communication between the VISOR® and the robot, and an additional instance can subsequently be omitted for many applications. 

BENEFITS:
•  Stable process despite varying positions of parts being fed 
•  Added flexibility with increasing number/diversity of variants 
•  Reduced programming due to calculation of 3D destination position for robot by VISOR® Robotic.

3.  Precision for Mobile Workstations - 

Use of mobile robots must be safe and efficient. To achieve this, the size of the safety zone must be rigorously defined, and also extremely reduced to offer the worker maximum freedom of movement.  

With the aid of Target Mark technology, VISOR® Robotic allows  mobile robots to move with precision to the workstation and e.g.  to connect themselves there mechanically via a plug.

BENEFITS: 

•  High availability due to robots’ implementation of workstation safety zones

•  Fast procedures due to compensation of 3D offset using 2D  vision sensor with image capture.

ROBOTIC APPROACH TO DEPTH INFORMATION

The VISOR^® Robotic +Z combines a vision sensor for robotics and the function of a distance sensor in a single device. This combination enables the functionalities of the VISOR^® Robotic to be expanded by providing precise depth information.

Applications

• Robot approach using depth information
• Positioning
• Object detection
• Measurement
• Identification

VISOR® Robotic's Universal Robots URCap

The VISOR^® Robotic URCap enables direct data exchange between VISOR® Robotic and the UR robotic systems. 

It guides through all the steps necessary to set up vision-guided robotics applications and provides prepared program routines for pick-and-place tasks. 

This allows a very quick start into the application and at the same time offers highest flexibility.  There are QR codes available that link to tutorial videos for all important functions.

Highlights

• Find all sensors in the network with one click
• Operate up to 8 VISOR^® Robotics in parallel
• Live image from the vision sensor showing the part position
• Support from SensoPart‘s "assisted calibration process" (ACP)
• Backup functions and QuickStart jobsets

A new program is set up in less than 15 minutes, thanks to:

• Simple VISOR^® configuration
• Step-by-step guide to camera calibration in the URCap software package
• Guided commissioning when setting up Pick and Place applications
• QR codes that link to tutorial videos for each step
