Robotic Storage & Retrieval System: www.par.com/ma...
FANUC America Systems Integrator PaR specializes in tailored and custom automation equipment satisfying our customer’s unique needs, like this robotic storage and retrieval system you see here today.
Customer can interface with an interactive kiosk where they can select the product and then the FANUC LR Mate 200iD/7L Robot Arm goes and retrieves the product.
Some of the key design features are the:
• FANUC robot itself
• PC-based process controller that interacts directly with a database system and the customers enterprise system
• Low footprint
• Ability to house many different product types
• Ability for the system to track, manage and restock over 18,000 SKUs for products varying in size and shape
People are looking for three pillars when it comes to robotic retrieval and blanked systems. Those three pillars are:
1. Traceability
2. Real estate
3. Unmanned robotic system
Traceability - Huge in the market place today - businesses want to know where it's being distributed and who's distributing it. Product management is critical. Any product that enters the system is inventoried and the dispensing in controlled. PC database tracks the products in real time, keeping the information 100% accurate.
Real Estate - This system is modular, meaning it can expand in height and weight in a variety of industries such as medical, manufacturing and retail. Facilities are having a difficult time with real estate, so anything they can vertical integrate like this is a big deal for them.
Unmanned Robotic System - The system works completely un-attended for any operator. The only thing operators are in charge of is loading in product at the beginning of their shift or the end of the day. At that point on, customers can go up to the front kiosk of the system and order product and the robot/system will find the product,
dispense it and update the traceability of that product.
Using ROBOGUIDE allowed PaR to prove out the software/processes before they actually had to assemble the hardware. It helped PaR Systems deliver this system to the customer in a shorter time.
