Robotics for Induction
OSARO® Robotic Induction System
The OSARO Robotic Induction System automates the picking and placing of items onto conveyors for scanning, sortation, or any other downstream process in a warehouse brimming with product for delivery. A single robot arm can handle boxes up to 11 pounds and process 1,500+ items an hour.
This system delivers high-throughput rates in production – that’s human-equivalent performance - with less overhead while relieving labor shortage issues and creating superior return on investment.
Keeping pace with relentless e-commerce demand has been especially challenging for highly monotonous tasks, such as induction – moving a package from one place to another on a conveyor. Done almost entirely by human hands, this chore is harder than it looks to automate. OSARO’s AI-driven vision and control software allows the robot to “see” the object, make a decision about how and when to grasp items constantly coming at it, and then place it on a moving surface.
The OSARO Robotic Induction System utilizes AI-driven vision and control technology to achieve effective grasping, orienting and placing movements in four key steps:
A mix of items flow to the robot which is integrated with a conveyance system.
The robot chooses which individual item to pick, and how to best pick it using a multi-suction cup end effector.
The item is grasped by the robot, transitioned, and properly oriented for placement.
The robot places the item into unoccupied spaces on the conveyor.
Benefits
Reliably process a vast range of item shapes, sizes, materials and packaging — shiny, reflective, deformable, illustrated — no problem.
Handle items without previous registration Adapt to changing packaging (type, size, color, print, material) on the fly. Optimal item placement
Maximize downstream success by placing items in a specified orientation into empty spaces on a moving conveyor that is occupied with items.
