Motion Controls Robotics to Exhibit at CPP Expo

Automation improves the safety and efficiency of the roll handling process. Visit Motion Controls Robotics in booth #4421 at the CPP Expo to see how FANUC robots are integrated into the application to transform the roll handling process.

Fremont, OH 8/11/2015 - Motion Controls Robotics, Inc (MCRI) will display their unique capabilities for robotic roll handling in booth #4421 during the combined Converting and Package Printing (CPP) Expo and Graph Expo, September 13-16 at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois.


Robotic roll handling is an application where Motion Controls Robotics has gained a variety of experience over the years from smaller, lighter weight rolls such as roofing to large, heavy rolls of adhesive tape to bulky rolls of insulation. Each job requires a custom solution, flexible end of arm tool, and a durable robot. Motion Controls Robotics has designed a variety of robotic roll handling systems, including palletizing, packaging, machine tending, and general roll/material handling. MCRI has experience developing end of arm tools that allow the robot to have a dual purpose saving the customer money on robotics and floor space. Lastly, MCRI uses only industry leading FANUC robots for their applications. FANUC robots are extremely reliable with uptime of 80,000 hours mean time between failures. FANUC's robot selection also features a variety of robots with world class reach and payload.

Rolls are typically heavy or bulky and having people moving these can cause ergonomic issues and even injury. Automating roll handling improves the safety and improves the efficiency of the process. MCRI can also pair a SmartCart Automatic Guided Cart solution into the robotic roll handling application to take away or deliver rolls to the robot cell.

Motion Controls Robotics is offering in conjunction with the CPP Expo free preventative maintenance for one year with the purchase of a new robotic roll handling system. This offer is worth more than $900 for each robot in the system. Come see a Motion Controls Robotics representative in booth #4421 to pick up a certificate for free preventative maintenance for when the time comes to automate.

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
