4 Innovation in Automation Collaborative Robots Autonomous Vehicles Key to success The 3 P s Requirements

5 Collaborative Robots

6 Collaborative Robots COBOTS New breed of small, simple, sensitive. Able to operate un caged Sensitive to force and loads, able to respond Many easy to program, quick to set up Growing list of accessories and apps

7 Cobots ABB YouMi Rethink Robotics - Baxter and Sawyer Universal Robots UR3, UR5 and UR10 Kuka, Fanuc more and more

8 Rethink - Baxter Early and vocal player Double arm humanoid Very safe Compliant Innovative teach by show. But very inaccurate Very slow

9 Sawyer More accurate, faster Single arm Same programming system Evolving quickly

10 ABB YuMu Small, accurate Targeted at electronic assembly 2 arms Selection of grippers including cameras Easily bolted to bench and put to work Limited by 500g capacity. Simple new teach by show programming pretty useless. Still programmed with ABB traditional robot language

11 YuMi

12 Universal Robots Class leaders over 10,000 installed 3kg, 5kg and 10kg 500mm to 1300mm reach Simple programming easy deployment

13 Kuka Very impressive technology Fantastic force sensitivity Beautiful construction Light and dexterous Java programming Very expensive.

14 Fanuc 35 kg lifting capacity! Traditional robot under padding and with smart controls.

15 Collaborative Robots Interesting approach to traditional application Opening new, simpler tasks Quick deployment for short-run projects Flexibility of no guarding But only collaborative if you don t put a chainsaw on the end. Horses for courses

16 Cycle time How fast can they go? Dependent on safety level Both legal and client safety standards Always needs a risk assessment Safety versus Production

17 Opportunities Simple in-house deployments Flexible and affordable automation Automation principals still apply Presentation of product Definition of process

18 GaMP and Validation Process validation Easier or harder than an operator? Process and product risks must be identified Challenge to rapid deployment benefits?

19 Autonomous Vehicles

20 Mobile platforms Small, smart, simple AGV Self navigating No Infrastructure Range of sizes Tote size up to full pallet.

21 Navigation No infrastructure. No wires or lines Scanners easily learn the environment and locations +/- 100mm Safe to interact with people Targets for high accuracy positioning +/- 10mm

22 Amazon

23 Applications Low-medium rate transfer End of line transfers Moving shippers to palletising or warehouse Material handling Delivering materials to lines Moving trolleys

24 MiR Down the road from Universal Robots 100kg capacity 8hr+ operation on a charge Build the top for your application Conveyor Shelves Towing

25 Adept/Omron Lynx Adept Robots bought by Omron Solid history Capable platform Trolley option

26 ClearPath Otto Emerging new player Strong background in navigation Significant commitment to the new segment Otto 100 small, 100kg Otto 1500 Pallet size

27 Applications? Fleet Management Software Capacity planning Non deterministic Top built to suit Power and interfaces available

28 Automation Success

29 The 3 P Product Process People

30 Product Understand your product completely Range Variation Presentation Exceptions Quality Behaviour

31 Process Understand every step of the process Explicit and implicit operations Human eye and hand are fantastic inspectors Exceptions

32 People Will make or break any project Who will own it? Who wants it work? Who wants it to fail??? Engage the team and stakeholders early. Very early.

33 Requirements Pharmaceutical understand the URS well Peel back to the core requirements Product and process Really try to avoid defining a solution
