摘要： A processing apparatus includes a table base to which a jig table is removably secured, a cutting unit, a moving assembly for moving the table base between a processing area and a mounting/dismounting area, and a delivery assembly for delivering the jig table from a temporary rest area onto the table base while applying a negative pressure to a second suction channel of the jig table. The delivery assembly includes a pair of grippers for gripping both sides of the jig table, a suction pipe connected to the second suction channel of the jig table that is gripped by the grippers, and a lifting and lowering unit for positioning the suction pipe selectively in an operative position where the suction pipe is connected to the second suction channel and a lifted position where the suction pipe is spaced from the second suction channel.

摘要： Some robotic arms may include vacuum-based grippers. Detecting the seal quality between each vacuum assembly of the gripper and a grasped object may enable reactivation of some vacuum assemblies, thereby improving the grasp. One embodiment of a method may include activating each of a plurality of vacuum assemblies of a robotic gripper by supplying a vacuum to each vacuum assembly, determining, for each of the activated vacuum assemblies, a first respective seal quality of the vacuum assembly with a first grasped object, deactivating one or more of the activated vacuum assemblies based, at least in part, on the first respective seal qualities, and reactivating each of the deactivated vacuum assemblies within a reactivation interval.

摘要： A method for fulfillment of an order includes receiving, at a master server, a specification of the order including a set of items. The master server selects a runner apparatus and transmits a first command to that apparatus to retrieve a first box for presentation to a picker apparatus, where the first box has an item for fulfillment of the order. The runner apparatus retrieves the first box and presents it to the picker apparatus by moving near the picker apparatus, where the picker apparatus includes a base portion that is immovable, and holding the box for access by the picker apparatus. The master server instructs the picker apparatus to sort that item from the first box to a destination box. The picker apparatus picks the item out of the box via a robot arm of the picker apparatus, and moves it to the destination box.

摘要： A robot has a gripper for gripping parts and releasing the gripped part at a destination position. The gripped part is vibrated at the destination position to cause the gripper to release the gripped part. The gripped part can be directly vibrated or vibrated by vibrating the mechanical structure of the gripper or by vibrating air in the gripper mechanical structure. The vibrator can connect the gripper to the robot. The vibrator can be inside or attached to the one or more of the articulated fingers of the gripper. The vibrations can be stopped when a sensor detects that the gripped part has been released or after the passage of a preset vibration time.
