Breakthrough technology makes 3D inspection as easy as 2D vision

With the GL-THTeasy system, Glaub Automation & Engineering GmbH has developed a robot cell for assembling printed circuit boards using through-hole technology. The core components are a dual-arm collaborative robot and several Cognex cameras. The results are impressive: it finally offers the solution for a process step that was previously unable to be automated as a rule.

With the Semi Mobility Solution, KUKA has taken a decisive step in semiconductor production automation. Until recently, robotics have been used in the individual production steps. Kuka has created a mobile robot that is also responsible for transporting the highly sensitive wafers from station to station. On board the robot is an image processing system from Cognex that is high-performing, yet compact in size.
