XYZ Gantry System – Micro Parts Picking, Placing & Precision Positioning

designs and manufactures custom, modular XY and XYZ gantry systems, also called cartesian robots or gantry kits. The system shown here uses a combination of high precision motorized linear stages, a motorized rotary stage and a motorized gripper to demonstrate a possible pick and place solution. This robot provides accurate and repeatable control of 5 axes of motion (3 linear, 1 rotation, and gripper) 

This XYZ Robotic Feeding Workstation is specially designed for precision automatic picking, sorting and loading of micro parts. It is widely applied in 3C electronics, semiconductors, food packaging, pharmaceutical, hardware and plastic industries.

The system handles large volumes of randomly arranged tiny components, such as electronic connectors, precision screws, nuts, plastic parts, capsules, candies and micro stamped parts. Equipped with a vision positioning system, it realizes random material feeding, automatic identification, precise picking, and orderly boxing or inline feeding.
