Robot guidance with SICK Inspector

Create a vision guided robot application in minutes with SICK 2D vision! The SICK Inspector URCap software provides an easy integration between the Universal Robot and a SICK Inspector PIM60 2D vision sensor. View the live image from the sensor, calibrate and align the sensor, choose reference object and get pick-point positions, all from the Universal Robot's teach pendant. In addition to outputting pick-points in the robot’s coordinate system, the Inspector PIM60 enables inspection and measurement tasks for pass/fail-criteria or trending.

PLOC2D is a 2D Vision sensor for part localization and identification, tailored for robot guidance applications. Setup of a complete robot picking application can be accomplished in minutes.

3D Belt Pick is an easy to use 3D vision sensor solution for robot based conveyor belt picking. An intuitive web GUI, a simple hand-eye alignment procedure, together with the straightforward Belt Pick URCap provides for an easy integration with the UR Robots.

sBot Stop - URCap is a safety system tailored to make safeguarding your cobot application easy using an UR robot. Thanks to the "nanoScan3 Tool" (URCap provided with this system), the configuration of a safe robot application is done using the UR teach pendant. The safety devices, together with the software and documentation, allow you to configure a safe application using an UR robot (robot is not provided with the system). The functional logic has been tested by SICK. This easy-to-use safety system is designed to work with material handling applications. It provides the necessary know-how to help customers achieve safety without compromising productivity. During operation, sBot Stop - URCap safety system allows free access to the robot working space. The robot only stops when a detected person get too close to the robot working area. The robot will resume its activities at full operational speed as soon as the person leaves this area, providing you the highest productivity.

Safeguard your collaborative application with the world’s first contactless safety solution for robot end-effectors and workpieces using SICK’s End-of-Arm-Safeguard (EOAS). Designed to facilitate interaction with the robot, the EOAS offers safeguarding in conjunction with UR collaborative robots. Now more than ever, safety is a priority in robotic applications. Whether it is pick place, handling assembly, or machine tending applications, the EOAS enables safe interaction with automatic restart. Create more freedom for human and machine with a protective field around the end-of-arm-tooling (EOAT). The protective field moves with the robot and is always where needed. This opens new spaces for human and machine that can be used freely and productively. With deep integration into the UR-eco-system and a URCap available, easily install the system within 15 minutes! Increase the speed and productivity of your human robot collaboration application knowing the EOAS will keep you safe. While thinking safety, consider using SICK’s End-of-Arm-Safeguard for your next Universal Robots collaborative application!

The PLB robot guidance system is designed for precise localization of parts stored in boxes or on pallets. The system is very flexible with a selection of 3D cameras to choose from. PLB supports easy configuration through a user interface tailored for part localization. It also includes functions to support simple integration with the robot controller, making it straightforward to integrate the system in production. In combination with our intuitive URCap, both the software and the pre-calibrated cameras are designed to be used right out of the box, so the system can be ready within minutes. Specialized for applications requiring the best accuracy and largest volume of view, the PLB520 camera paired with the PLB Engine can handle nearly any robotic application ask. The PLB520 works best for capturing crisp edges, creating unparalleled surface definitions, and providing sub-millimeter resolution. Typical applications might include high accuracy bin picking, tire depalletization, casting depalletization, and formed dunnage picking. Specialized for applications requiring millimeter level resolution and a small volume of view, the PLB515 camera paired with the PLB Engine can solve several small robotic applications. The PLB515 works best for robot-mounted applications where footprint may be a concern and great accuracy is still desired. Typical applications might include robot-mounted casting depalletization, indexed conveyor picking, and formed dunnage picking. Specialized for simple applications where moderate accuracy and a large volume of view are required, the PLB510 camera paired with the PLB Engine can solve your simple application. The PLB510 works best for robot-mounted applications where footprint may be a concern and only moderate resolution is needed. Additionally, the camera offers both 3D data and 2D RGB images for segmentation. Typical applications might include robot-mounted box depalletization, carton depalletization, and flexible bag picking. Specialized for complex applications where high accuracy and a medium volume of view are required, the PLB536 camera paired with the PLB Engine is tailored for the most unique objects needing to be located. The PLB536 works best for robot-mounted applications where footprint may be a concern and great resolution is needed. Additionally, the camera offers simultaneous high-quality 3D and 2D RGB images for segmentation. Typical applications might include robot-mounted high accuracy bin picking, flexible bag picking, clear object detection, and other logistics applications.
