Now, 3D bin picking adds tremendous capability to industrial robots in manufacturing, but this technique requires advanced vision and expert setup. Today we’re going to spotlight the emerging 2D Flex feeding approach, empowered by more simple vision systems to enable quicker, more reliable implementations.

We’re connecting with Nicholas Kern, systems applications engineer with SICK, and Nick Barron, President of Feedall, to differentiate flex feeding from bowl feeding, explore new capabilities enabled by this smart new approach, highlight some of the early adopters generating real wins, and look to the future of feeding robots with smarter vision.
