ProMat 2023: Intralogistics, software and motion in focus

Control Engineering

Closed-loop digitalization uses data from the real world to create accurate simulations and find and resolve any bottlenecks in design. A robot demonstrated pick-and-place capabilities with a diverse range of products in a bin. A diversity of robots, vision systems and end-of-arm tooling (EoAT) may be used. Courtesy: Mark T.
