While advancements in robotic technology have allowed the pick and place operation to be performed in 0.5 seconds or less, the true success lies in the selection and interaction of all system components. Early evaluation of the following critical elements will promote project success.
• Formulating an accurate system specification
• Optimizing all elements of the pick-and-place cycle
• Product handling
• Robot selection
System considerations (vision, conveyor tracking, etc.)
