The video begins with an introduction to screw separation and the role it plays in various industrial applications. It explains that screw separation is an important process that enables the efficient and accurate handling of screws. The FlexiBowl system, an innovative device specifically designed for screw separation, is then introduced. It is emphasized that the FlexiBowl system can be used in a variety of industrial applications due to its flexibility and precision. The next section of the video demonstrates the process of screw separation with the FlexiBowl system. It shows how the system picks up the screws, separates them individually and then makes them available for further processing. During the demonstration process, the high speed and efficiency of the FlexiBowl system is emphasized. It is emphasized that the system is able to process a large number of screws in a short time, which leads to a significant increase in productivity. It is emphasized that the system not only improves the efficiency and accuracy of screw handling, but also increases the overall productivity and performance of industrial assembly lines.

In the application, plastic components are gripped by the Delta robot, specifically sucked up and placed in a fixture in which the individual components are joined. The challenge in this application was the precise processing of the camera data. The robot has a pick cycle time of 1-2 seconds. The components are jogged randomly.

In this video, we present an advanced solution for the automated assembly of ball bearings in production. The setup of the gantry system and the integration of the Epson Scara are shown, as well as the operation of the rotary conveyor and the Variobotic shaker cameras for precise detection and positioning of the ball bearing components. The Schunk and Schmalz grippers are demonstrated in action, handling the ball bearings safely and efficiently. The step feeder supports the process with its precise conveying technique, ensuring that the entire system operates smoothly and efficiently thanks to reliable power and data transmission. The benefits of this solution include increased production speed, reduced scrap, and improved workplace safety. Additionally, a low footprint is ensured, facilitating integration into various production environments.

Automated insertion into injection molding machine

In this video, we demonstrate the use of an automated system for inserting components into an injection molding machine. This innovative solution optimizes the production process and significantly increases efficiency.

The operation of the insertion process is shown step by step, demonstrating the precise positioning and handling of the components. The seamless integration of the insertion system into the existing injection molding machine will then be demonstrated, including the communication interfaces and control logic.

The benefits of this solution include increasing production speed and accuracy, reducing scrap and material waste, and improving worker safety by minimizing manual intervention.

An important aspect here is maintaining a low footprint.

This video highlights a customer test conducted in the igus Customer Testing Area (CTA), where metal parts are isolated using a Varioshaker. Subsequently, the contours of the parts are teched into an ifm 2D camera for precise detection and analysis.

 The test demonstrates the efficiency of the Varioshaker in isolating individual parts and the capability of the ifm 2D camera to identify these parts for quality control or automated processes.

The video impressively showcases how modern technologies are applied in automation technology to optimize processes and ensure product quality.

This application video from Variobotic shows how efficiently component separators can be used in combination with industrial robots and vision camera systems.

The Varioshaker uses vibration to separate the individual components, which are then recognised by the camera. The robot thus knows where the parts are and can pick them and set the fixture.

Example of a complete solution from Variobotic

In this application example from the "bin picking" sector, several work steps could be automated with an intelligent solution.

The supply hopper drops the components onto the "Varioshaker 270", which then separates them using vibration. The vision system then recognizes the individual parts and transmits this data to the Dobot. With the help of an EGP end effector, the Dobot picks up the components for further processing.

With the help of the various robot components, an intelligent solution was created.

The VarioFeed solution developed by Variobotic consists of the industrial robot DOBOT MG400, the flexible component separator VarioShaker 270 and two image processing systems.

In the application example, sensor housings are placed onto the component separator through a supply hopper, where the components are provided to the industrial robot in the correct shape and position. After visual recognition of the component by a camera, the DOBOT MG400 can pick up the parts. The housing is then inspected via the second camera.

This bundle combines flexible feeding and separation as well as quality control in one solution. The DOBOT robot convinces with a speed of 300°/s and a repeatability of +-0.05mm.
