Check the magnetic gripper application in aotumation Line. A leading automation robotics integrator faced significant challenges in handling diverse steel plates (ranging from 50×50mm to 1m) for industrial assembly. Previously reliant on manual labor, they struggled with:
Inconsistent Sorting: Inability to accurately categorize and pick varied plate sizes.
Thin-Plate Jams: Difficulty separating single sheets from stacks without damage.
Speed & Precision: Manual handling caused deformation and slow throughput.
Our Custom Solution:
We deployed a modular magnetic gripper system integrated with their vision-guided robots, featuring:
✔ Multi-Gripper Arrays: Circular magnetic units arranged in adaptable configurations to match plate dimensions.
✔ Intelligent Control: Vision-triggered selective activation—only grippers aligned with the target plate energize, ensuring single-sheet pickup (even for 0.5mm thin plates).
✔ Zero-Contact Force: Electro-permanent technology eliminates clamping pressure, preventing surface scratches or bends.
Results Delivered:
100% Precision: Every pickup isolates a single sheet flawlessly, regardless of stack height.
300% Productivity Boost: Automated lines now process 120+ plates/minute (vs. 40 manually).
Future-Ready Flexibility: Gripper layouts can be reconfigured in minutes for new plate sizes via software.
