Synchronisation for Packaging Robots and Conveyors
Keba's Kemotion Packaging is designed to enable fast and easy automation of packaging processes in pick-and-place and in palletising applications, through using an integrated control concept. One main focus is convenient integration of robots, vision systems and conveyor belts, as well as comfortable configuration and rapid programming of the entire machine and robot application. Robotics, PLC and HMI are joined together through the integrated control concept, resulting in best-possible synchronisation of the whole packaging process where it would otherwise not be possible.
Increased machine productivity and reduced system complexity are additional advantages of the Keba packaging automation solution. It also has a universal operating concept scores and implemented factory support of 20 different robot types, to make operation and programming of the packaging machines easier. With Kemotion Packaging, time-consuming learning of different robot programming languages is eliminated. Keba's Kairo robot command set, with its numerous ready-made command and configuration modules, plays a key role in the programming of applications.
It facilitates intuitive programming and simple integration of vision and tracking systems including 3D support. The also available off-line editor is equally as simple to use. It is possible to prepare control programmes even before the corresponding hardware is available. This saves valuable time, as the final optimisations can then be done directly on the robot, using the online teach-in function. The high-grade scalability of the hard- and software guarantees complete systems that are individually matched to customers' needs with an optimal price/performance ratio.
From single- and multiple-axis applications conforming to PLC Open, to eightfold Multi-Robot Operation with maximum utilisation of the physical limits, Kemotion offers system configurations for a variety of requirements. The integrated robot model provides continuous movement analyses for sequences at high speed. Occurring torques always remain below the allowed limit. This results in shorter cycle times, as well as extended durability of the robot mechanics. Kemotion Packaging accelerates palletising cycles to 15 packages per minute.
The option for integration of any palletising data format and the connectivity to databases allows rapid modification of palletising patterns and provides high flexibility during product changeovers. Kemotion Packaging ensures fast pick-and-place sequences of up to 220 picks per minute for items of 25/305/25mm, 0.8 kg. Cognex Insight integration is already pre-installed ex works. Conveyor belts can be arranged completely free in space, configuration of robot cells is possible easily without any restrictions.
