Vision Sensor The TriSpector1000 is a stand-alone, confi gurable 3D vision sensor that reliably inspects objects regardless of variations in object color, shape, or position. Intensity data enhances 3D navigation and allows the sensor to check for object rotation or the presence of a label or printed pattern. The unit is especially suited for solving quality- control applications in the consumer goods
and packaging industry and can be used for volume and thickness measurement and inspection of box integrity, including content verifi cation, completeness and emptiness checks. The TriSpector1000 also features IP 67 metal housing with plastic windows durable enough to withstand harsh food processing environments. SICK USA

Material-Handling Robot
The high-speed GP8 is de- signed for material-handling applications. The robot has an IP67 washdown rating with an easy-to-clean surface for use in harsh environments. Its slender design allows it to delve deep into the work- space, and it can be placed in close proximity to other ro- bots. A single cable is needed
to connect the manipulator and controller, resulting in easy setup and reduced maintenance expenses. The GP8 has an 8-kg payload capacity, a 727-mm reach, and can be fl oor-, ceiling- and wall-mounted. Motoman Robotics Division Yaskawa America Inc. Ph: 937-847-6200 Web site:

Cloud Optical 3D Sensor The Zeiss AIMax cloud optical 3D sensor aims to be the benchmark in robot-based 3D in-line metrology in the fi elds of sheetmetal processing and car body construction. The sensor generates 3D point clouds directly at the production line and measures complex features with high precision in a fraction of a second.

Multiaxis Force/Torque Sensor for Robots Automate is the launch pad for a low-cost multiaxis force/ torque sensor from ATI Industrial Automation embedded with a Universal Robots UR5 robot. The ATI Axia80 senses torque and side loads along all six axes. A UR robot doing assembly with force control will make decisions based on that force feedback and change its motion to get the as- sembly accomplished, changing path with the environment instead of following a prepro- grammed path. The sensor has all the electronics built into the transducer body, which keeps the cost down and footprint smaller. Universal Robots Ph: 844-462-6268 Web site: www.
