Component separation
Shaking with a robot
The Varioshaker 270 from Variobotic is a component separator that uses targeted movements to separate components with different geometries. The shaker with I/O interface and Ethernet can be adapted to almost any robot.
The Varioshaker 270 offers users many options for the flexible separation of small parts. The focus is primarily on flexible use in small and medium-sized businesses, which often have to deal with small order sizes and different part sizes. Conventional systems can often only be converted by experts and at high cost. The Varioshaker is different.
The Varioshaker 270 can separate small parts with a size of 0.5 to 50 millimetres, depending on their component geometry, through targeted movement, collection and shaking. The shaker adapts to the different geometries of the small parts by using different vibrating plates with different surfaces. Vibration plates with surfaces such as knobs, holes and slots are currently in use, and there are also plates with a smaller separating surface. The magnetic quick plates can be exchanged in no time at all in just a few simple steps.
Variobotic checks the compatibility of the small parts in advance using part tests. During the test, a decision can be made as to which vibratory plate is best suited or whether a new surface needs to be developed.
Web-based configuration
The Varioshaker can also be put into operation without expert knowledge. The shaker can be set up, configured and operated using the Shakerconfig software. The developer Variobotic offers support with a tutorial in which the individual setup steps are clearly explained. Due to its low purchase price, it also has a short amortization period and is therefore particularly suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.
Thanks to a simple I/O interface and Ethernet, the Varioshaker can be adapted to almost any robot and can be integrated into complete systems. The EligoShake M1 out-of-the-box solution developed by Variobotic is an example of integration into a complete system. In this complete system, the Varioshaker is combined with a Scara robot and an image processing solution. as
