Process Overview
This deployment is a pick-and-place automation solution for handling steel plates on a press line, using PICKSYS 3D vision and Doosan collaborative robots(Cobots).
By combining 3D vision with cobots, the system can handle unstandardized (non-uniform) steel plates safely and efficiently. It automates tasks that operators typically avoid, improving overall operating efficiency and helping increase job satisfaction on the floor.

Recommended Use Cases
Nut-Insert Injection Molding and Inspection Using a Yushin Take-Out Robot
Process Overview This assembly automation solution uses a YUSHIN take-out robot (SCⅡ 150) to perform insert molding, placing a nut into the mold and overmolding it with plastic, followed by automated inspection. By automating both the insert-loading operation and the downstream inspection process, the system minimizes quality-control touchpoints while improving overall productivity.
Machining Support for a WIA Turning Center Using Two DENSO Robots ⚙️🏭
Process Overview This automation solution uses two DENSO robots—VM60B1 (6-axis vertical articulated robot) and HS055 (SCARA robot)—to automate raw material loading, turning-center machining of plastic parts, and a downstream press-fit (crimping) operation. By integrating material loading, machining support, and press-fit handling into a single automated workflow, the system minimizes control points while improving overall productivity.
Automated nut loading into the machine tool—plus complete teaching support!
Process Overview Philliper had been handling the process of inserting nuts into the machine tool manually. Due to the repetitive nature of the work and insufficient precision, this led to reduced productivity and quality issues. To resolve this, they implemented an automation solution using four Hyundai robots and two Doosan robots. Project Background and Objectives Background Philliper was experiencing work inefficiency and inconsistent quality in the existing nut-loading operation due to a manual process. Key issues Speed loss and quality variation occurring during manual operations Increased operator fatigue and reduced productivity Operator burden caused by repetitive tasks in the nut insertion process Objectives Improve production efficiency by automating repetitive tasks through robot deployment Secure consistent quality and reduce defect rates through accurate insertion Improve the work environment by reducing operator fatigue and strengthening safety
