One controller handles three delta robots

Easier installation at the customer plant is just one of the benefits gained by designing a multi-robot pick-and-place machine governed by a single controller.

One Control. A single MLC control moves all the robots and does intelligent load balancing.

A single Triaflex delta robot achieves speeds of up to 120 cycles per minute. Through the simultaneous picking of several products using a “multi picks” gripper system, the delta robot can handle up to 300 products per minute. The Triaflex system provides dynamic belt synchronization to pick up and place products at speeds to 360 ft/min. This also allows for the placement of individual products into secondary packages for overwrapping.

The unique approach of this new multi-robot platform in comparison to other systems available on the market is that Cama utilizes a single controller for the entire machine and no longer controls each individual robot with a separate controller. Cama matched its expertise with Rexroth’s knowledge of the packaging industry to develop the innovative solutions that lead to success for both sides, like calculating several kinematics on one controller to both control and synchronize several robots.
