INSPHERE release next generation ORATM robot control software
ORA facilitates more accurate and reliable automated processes where manufacturers benefit from fewer quality issues, improved throughput, lower material waste, reduced downtime and greater production efficiencies overall.
A live digital twin with real time control.
INSPHERE Ltd, innovators of intelligent automation solutions for advanced manufacturing, are releasing the next generation of ORA robot control software which provides greater opportunities for process improvements and a more intuitive user experience for advanced manufacturers through a live digital twin.
ORA facilitates more accurate and reliable automated processes where manufacturers benefit from fewer quality issues, improved throughput, lower material waste, reduced downtime and greater production efficiencies overall.
Uniquely adaptable in-process control of advanced manufacturing processes
ORA software works with a variety of sensing instruments from IONA, INSPHERE's original measurement solution, to laser trackers and more. This sensor agnostic feature provides manufacturers with the opportunity to integrate ORA into any existing robot cell set up and benefit from 24/7 monitoring and in-process adjustments, without manual intervention.
The essential platform for robot guidance, coordinate frame management and live visualisation.
Measurement sensors gather all positional data from a robot cell, which is transferred to ORA and compared to the desired activity specification. A digital twin is shown in the user interface to accurately represent activity, allowing users to view frames and their associated CAD models in real time. Deviations in robot activity are identified, with positional revisions fed back to the robots, allowing for corrections to be made in-process, thereby avoiding production errors.
The updated ORA user interface is incredibly intuitive, with users requiring little prior knowledge of metrology systems, and data is clearly presented for easy interpretation of results.
The updated ORA software is available to manufacturers now - more information is available at insphereltd.com.
Featured Product
TM Robotics - Shibaura Machine THE SCARA range
The THE range from Shibaura Machine is an extensive line up of SCARA robots. Available in four arm lengths THE400 (400mm), THE600 (600mm) and the most recent THE800 (800mm) and THE1000 (1000mm), this range is suitable for assembly, handling, inspection and pick and place processes in varied industrial applications. The THE1000 boasts a 20kg payload capacity and an impressive 0.44 second cycle time, providing high speeds for processes with large components. In fact, the range has been recognised for as the price-to-performance leader compared to other SCARA models in its price range due to its impressive speed versus payload capacity.
