OSARO has welcomed Cognex Company into the OSARO Companions Alliance, an ecosystem of experience aimed toward delivering optimum automation options to clients. By integrating Cognex DataMan fixed-mount, image-based barcode readers into the OSARO Robotic Bagging System, OSARO solved a tough technical problem for Zenni Optical.
Blyn Prokopowich, transport supervisor at Zenni Optical stated “OSARO labored aspect by aspect with us to make sure data switch. They actively responded to all our questions and requests. I’ve seen my staff change and they’re very, very enthusiastic about this problem. Studying new abilities is [better than] doing repetitive motions day by day. The talents give them confidence.”
The current deployment at Zenni in Novato, California, showcased the function of Cognex’s DataMan barcode readers in OSARO’s system, which includes a FANUC M-10 Sequence robotic arm powered by OSARO SightWorks imaginative and prescient and management system for robots, a Pregis Sharp automated bagging machine, Cognex readers, and Framos cameras to information the robotic. NPSG International constructed the bodily infrastructure in collaboration with OSARO’s technical staff.
The system demonstrated compelling ROI for one of many world’s high eyeglass retailers by fixing an ongoing problem. Zenni’s signature translucent blue eyeglass circumstances had stymied scanners from a number of OEMs that have been unable to learn barcodes by means of the plastic circumstances. OSARO vetted a number of suppliers earlier than deciding on Cognex DataMan readers, which achieved 99% accuracy and skim charges whereas growing throughput by 80%.
Lighting performs an essential function in barcode studying options and helps to extend learn charges. Cognex’s high-intensity LED lighting — a high-powered built-in torch (HPIT) — was instrumental within the capability to learn barcodes by means of Zenni’s eyewear circumstances. Right this moment, every OSARO robotic system can decide, scan, bag, and label as much as 410 eyeglasses per hour.
“At OSARO, we’re at all times on the lookout for the most effective applied sciences and distributors to include into our strategic partnership ecosystem. Cognex is now a part of that partnership technique to deploy the absolute best options to our clients,” stated OSARO VP of Operations Gemma Ross. “We’re excited to be working with Cognex and to attract on their specialists with deep area expertise within the profitable deployment of barcode readers in difficult e-commerce and logistics functions.”
“Cognex is proud to accomplice with OSARO to unravel probably the most tough barcode studying challenges on behalf of its buyer, Zenni,” stated Ben Carey, director of logistics product administration at Cognex. “Our DataMan barcode-reading options can learn barcodes in difficult situations, making certain that clients can keep an environment friendly and correct robotic pick-and-place course of — and ship buyer orders on time.”
