Getting a palletizing venture carried out proper has all the time relied on having the fitting info on the proper time. Product specs, ground constraints, monetary targets: when any of it’s lacking or incorrect, the venture pays for it later.
IQ is the platform Robotiq constructed to alter that. It captures the knowledge behind a palletizing venture, constructions it, and generates a validated Workcell design based mostly in your precise operation. The result’s a deployment-ready Palletizing Workcell with predictable efficiency from day one and a monetary case you’ll be able to stand behind earlier than committing to something.
What producers can do immediately in IQ
The Match Test: filter quick, transfer on what issues
Step one in IQ is the Match Test. It’s a high-level evaluation designed to present a quick, trustworthy reply on whether or not a palletizing software is value pursuing, with out overwhelming you with technical questions upfront.
In 5 minutes, the Match Test tells you whether or not the appliance is viable, whether or not the enterprise case holds, and what the deployment path appears like. It’s the popular entry level for any new venture as a result of it filters out unfit functions early, so time and sources go towards the alternatives which are genuinely value it.
The Match Test appears at what issues most at this stage: manufacturing volumes, labor context, package deal sorts, and fundamental web site constraints. It’s constructed for velocity over precision, giving your staff and your associate a shared start line earlier than the primary dialog even occurs.
The Simulator: see the Workcell earlier than it exists
As soon as the venture information is in, the Simulator generates a validated Workcell design in your precise manufacturing facility atmosphere. Cycle time, attain, payload, pallet configuration, conveyor format, each efficiency indicator is confirmed by way of simulation earlier than a single element ships.
That is the place the promise of predictable efficiency turns into concrete. The Simulator validates the design throughout your full product combine, together with a number of SKUs, totally different field sizes, and ranging throughput targets. If one thing would not work, you already know it earlier than deployment, not after.
The output consists of an automation preview, a personalised report, and an ROI projection exhibiting your estimated payback interval based mostly in your precise inputs.
What your associate brings to the venture
Lacking or incorrect info is without doubt one of the commonest causes palletizing tasks decelerate or must be redone. Ready for info after the actual fact, rework on the design, imprecise simulation outcomes, inaccurate pricing on elements like conveyor size; the results compound rapidly and quietly, usually solely exhibiting up late within the venture when they’re costly to repair.
Your native Robotiq associate works with you thru each step utilizing the complete set of IQ instruments, capturing the fitting info on the proper second so none of that occurs. Every software feeds immediately into the Simulator and the Workcell design you obtain.
Voice Seize: nothing will get misplaced between the decision and the proposal
In the course of the qualification name, your associate makes use of IQ’s Voice Seize characteristic to information the dialog and extract the knowledge that issues. Enterprise case components, software particulars, web site constraints, potential dangers, and subsequent steps are all captured in actual time.
In a standard course of, crucial particulars get misplaced between a telephone name and a proposal. A constraint talked about in passing. A throughput goal that wasn’t written down. Voice Seize constructions that dialog and turns it into actionable venture information, so the qualification name really strikes the venture ahead somewhat than creating extra follow-up.
3D Scan: put away the measuring tape
On web site, your associate scans the complete atmosphere utilizing LiDAR (Gentle Detection and Ranging) and IMU (Inertia Measurement Unit) applied sciences on an iPhone Professional. Ceiling peak, obstacles, conveyor positions, aisle widths, ground house, all of it captured in a single go, related on to the Simulator.
The 3D scan removes some of the widespread sources of venture delay and rework: lacking or inaccurate web site measurements. When the incorrect conveyor peak goes right into a design, or a structural beam is not accounted for, the venture has to return to sq. one. The scan closes that hole. What used to require hours of handbook measurement and follow-up visits will get carried out in a single go on web site.
Keyframes throughout the scan permit your associate to reference particular factors within the atmosphere later, successfully letting them return on web site with no return go to.
File Seize: use the information you have already got
Product info would not should be re-entered manually. Your associate can add TOPS information for probably the most correct product information, pull field sizes from a photograph of an present pallet, or import a spreadsheet for a number of SKUs directly. Enterprise card info is extracted routinely.
This issues as a result of incomplete or inaccurate product information is without doubt one of the commonest causes Workcell designs must be revised. File Seize pulls the knowledge immediately from the supply, lowering handbook entry and the errors that include it.
The monetary case, constructed from actual information
The ROI calculator in IQ surfaces the payback interval and complete projected financial savings based mostly in your precise operation: labor prices, variety of employees, variety of shifts, manufacturing volumes, and product combine.
For producers operating a single shift, the monetary case for automation has traditionally been more durable to construct. IQ is particularly designed to floor that reply early, earlier than engineering hours are dedicated. If the return is there, the calculator reveals it. If the venture scope wants to alter to make the numbers work, you discover that out at first, not on the finish.
By the point your Workcell design is validated, the efficiency and the return are each confirmed. That’s what makes the choice easy.
See IQ on an actual palletizing deployment, June 18
Studying about IQ is one factor. Seeing it work on an actual venture is one other.
On June 18th, Robotiq will stroll by way of IQ reside on an actual palletizing deployment. In 45 minutes, you will notice the complete path from first inputs to a validated Workcell, and stroll away realizing precisely what this implies to your subsequent venture.
That is the clearest method to perceive what IQ does to your operation earlier than committing to something.
