ASG named Robotic Certified Integrator by Robotics Industry Association
ASG Automation proves their expertise by becoming a Certified Robot Integrator
ASG, Division of Jergens, Inc. is proud to announce their new title as an RIA [Robotics Industry Association] Certified Robot Integrator! Achieving this certification shows ASGs continued commitment in developing high levels of proficiency, depth of knowledge, and expertise in the areas of safety compliance and robotic systems integration.
The certification process was developed in 2012 to set the standards for the industry. It sets the benchmark in safety, quality, and engineering capabilities, amongst others. The rigorous exam consists of meeting pre-requisites, such as performing risk assessments, an onsite audit, and hands-on testing that includes in depth robot programming. In certifying two Experts, and three Technicians, ASG has proven itself to be among an elite group that may call themselves RIA Certified Robot Integrators.
During the hands-on testing, ASG used the Toshiba Machine TH650A SCARA robot. This is the first time a SCARA robot has been used for the RIA certification exam. The TH650A offers consistent reliable performance, repetitive accuracy, and user-friendly programming. TM Robotics teamed up with ASG in September of 2016. In so doing, the TM Robotic line has become an integral part of the ASG Automation advanced screw driving machine portfolio.
"We are committed to continuing to fortify the firm foundation of ASG Automation. This certification helps us with that. It lets our customers know that we meet (and strive to meet) a certain standard; and that standard is one of Excellence! We are grateful to receive the title of RIA Certified Robot Integrator."
Being a certified robotic integrated conforms to ASGs mission, to continuously improve products, processes, and services.

Featured Product
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.
