1 Overview 1-2 System configuration to build in this guide 1-2 System configuration to build in this guide NJ-series Robot Integrated System Startup Guide (hereinafter referred to as “this guide”) describes examples of building a static pick-and-place equipment and a dynamic pick-and-place equipment. 1 An equipment to move a workpiece that is placed at the specified position to the target position is called a static pick-and-place equipment in this guide. An equipment that picks up a workpiece being moved on the conveyor and places it at the specified position is called a dynamic pick-and-place equipment.
The pickup position is automatically deter- mined from the position detected by the camera and encoder. To control multiple Omron robots and manage the recipes, IPC Application Controller is connected to the equipment via Ethernet. Select and use the IPC Application Controller, industrial cameras, and belt encoders required for the functions explained in 1-8-2 Application Manager on page 1-14. The figure below illustrates the devices to be used for each equipment.
