Kinema Systems Announces World's First Self-Training Robot Picking Solution

Kinema Systems is proud to announce its first product - Kinema Pick - the worlds first self-training, self-calibrating software solution for robotic depalletizing.

MENLO PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kinema Systems is proud to announce its first product - Kinema Pick - the worlds first self-training, self-calibrating software solution for robotic depalletizing. Kinema Pick enables fully automated depalletization of multi-SKU, single-SKU and random pallets of boxes. Kinema Pick is self-training - it requires no manual training for the type of boxes to be picked or the workcell that the robot is operating in. Kinema Pick can be easily configured using a browser-based GUI. Kinema Pick is the first in a series of solutions from Kinema Systems for the "holy grail" of industrial robotics - random picking. Kinema Pick addresses a critical need in the e-commerce, logistics and distribution industry for robotic picking solutions capable of dealing with unstructured random pallets of boxes.

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
