Parts handling from ARKU: the ideal connection between a precision leveler and automated loading and unloading of parts, sheets and plates. All thanks to our state-of-the-art vision robot for automated material handling. Various processing steps in the sheet metal and heavy plate industry have become faster and faster. Modern machines, for example, manage certain processes in just a few seconds. Thus, to increase your efficiency, the focus should be on ancillary processes. In general, companies often still rely on employees to load and unload precision levelers manually by hand. This kind of manual work is not only monotonous, but also time-consuming and costly. Furthermore, depending on the weight of the parts, also physically demanding. These qualified employees can be utilized more effectively for other tasks. This is where automated parts handling for loading and unloading can provide maximum efficiency. Advantages With robots instead of operators, all steps of the sheet metal and heavy plate processing run fully automated No complex reprogramming when changing to different parts/materials All in one process means cutting overhead costs Our Vision Robot brings enables full automation for precision levelers. Equipped with a camera and artificial intelligence (AI), it autonomously recognizes the stacked parts, precisely positions them in the machine, and automates the process of removing and stacking. The required flexibility is one reason why medium-sized sheet metal processors are hesitating with the implementation of an automated parts handling solution. These sheet metal processors handle a wide range of products and part/sheet sizes are constantly changing.
