Arquemino Lopes Junior: The growing variety of products, the continuing boom in e-commerce and the increasing complexity of logistics processes require intelligent automation strategies. Companies need to work more efficiently and cost-effectively in order to remain competitive in this environment. Bin picking is the automated hand of intralogistics. It enables companies to remove a wide variety of objects precisely and reliably from chaotic or organized containers. This technology makes it possible to optimize the flow of materials and avoid bottlenecks in the logistics chain.
Arquemino Lopes Junior: The big challenge is to develop gripping systems that can flexibly and reliably grip a variety of different items. A system that can really grasp any object is like searching for the Holy Grail. The variety of product geometries and materials poses an enormous challenge for automated gripping. If the bin-picking process does not run smoothly, it quickly becomes a bottleneck in intralogistics. The risk here is that the material flow comes to a standstill and the overall system loses performance. On the positive side, companies that successfully integrate intelligent bin picking into their processes will take a decisive step forward. They not only optimize their efficiency, but also create the basis for surviving in a market that demands ever faster and more flexible solutions.
