How AMRs Create Value in FMCG Supply Chain
FMCG companies are making use of technology to beat longstanding challenges and build on emerging opportunities in an evolving marketplace. Changing consumer demands and increasing e-commerce is making it critical for FMCG companies to make new products quickly available.

Introducing the SMC100 Motion Controller
Ultra-compact SANMOTION C motion controllers featuring high-speed EtherCAT fieldbus are available in a high-performance type for controlling robots and a standard type that specializes in PTP (Point-to-Point) positioning. They are suitable for motion control applications such as robots, conveying machines, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment.

The Whitepaper introduces the main functions and features of the SMC100—the newest addition to the SANMOTION C motion controller lineup.
How to Singulate Crowded Scans Using Part Detection - Webinar
The Part Detection feature in Gocator analyzes a 3D point cloud created from either laser profile or structured light (fringe projection) scans to automatically identify and separate discrete objects. 

The discrete objects or parts can then undergo correction for rotation to establish a common orientation ready for slicing and feature measurement.

Learn more about this essential 3D smart sensor capability in the attached webinar provided by Aaron Spouler and hosted by David Kepniss, which includes a bonus section on how to singulate crowded scans.
