Overview

This section provides the tips for improving the robot’s performance to handle the workpieces in the Conveyor Tracking, which uses the vision system to detect the workpieces.

Process of Accuracy Improvement

Prepare the conveyor tracking in the following steps.

  1. System construction
  2. Vision calibration
  3. Conveyor calibration
  4. Check of the workpiece detection accuracy and the detection rate
  5. Check of the workpiece handling accuracy

In order to improve the handling accuracy, proper preparations and adjustments in each step are necessary. The following sections describe tips for accuracy improvement for each step.

Subsequent descriptions use the SCARA robot. Please note that the tips are common in SCARA and 6-Axis robots.
