Abstract:
A conveyor system and a method for dynamically switching an active work associated with a motion device, the system including a plurality of conveyors for moving at least one part, at least one production machine associated with at least one of the conveyors, at least one motion device to move the at least one part, a controller associated with the at least one motion device, wherein the controller is in data communication with the at least one production machine to receive a feedback data therefrom, the feedback data representing a state of the production machine, and a software system executed by the controller to dynamically and selectively control the at least one motion device in response to the feedback data.
Abstract:
A system for picking and packing applications is provided. The system includes a plurality of robots and a plurality of robot controllers. Each robot controller includes a load re-balance subsystem, a load balance subsystem, a robot state change detector subsystem, a communicator subsystem, and a motion control subsystem. Each of the robot controllers is interconnected and in communication with one another via the communicator subsystems. Each of the robots has a workload that may be selectively balanced. A method for balancing the workloads of the robots using built-in processors which run motion control is also provided.
