Process Overview
This deployment is a pick-and-place automation solution for handling steel plates on a press line, using PICKSYS 3D vision and Doosan collaborative robots(Cobots).
By combining 3D vision with cobots, the system can handle unstandardized (non-uniform) steel plates safely and efficiently. It automates tasks that operators typically avoid, improving overall operating efficiency and helping increase job satisfaction on the floor.

Workflow
- STEP 1.
- Steel plates are processed at the press line
- STEP 2.
- The 3D vision system detects each steel plate
- STEP 3.
- Detected plate data is transferred to the collaborative robot
- STEP 4.
- The cobot picks the steel plate using a vacuum gripper
- STEP 5.
- The vision system identifies the target placement position
- STEP 6.
- The cobot places the steel plate at the designated location.
