Development of a System for Flexible Feeding of Parts with Robot and Machine Vision

摘要

This article presents a design solution for feeding cylindrical parts with axial orientation. A working algorithm was developed to control and synchronize the main components, which was verified via a simulation. The pneumatic and electrical circuits were designed using a software platform for engineering purposes. Based on the CAD project created, a real prototype was built. The energy consumption of the system was tested and evaluated. The results from the prototype verified the solution. This article emphasizes the use of specific sensors for detecting part orientation and their role in improving process reliability. The system is suitable for industrial implementation due to its functionality, stable operation, low energy consumption, and ability to be integrated into automated production systems.
