Robotic drawer system for CNC tending with 3D picking

Robotic drawer unit for CNC servicing with 3D picking
Challenges Addressed
- Tray-based storage system for workpieces to ensure several hours of autonomous operation for the machining center
- Availability of trays with different sizes and depths, with customizable positioning fixtures
- Easy loading system with reconfiguration capability for handling format changes
Proposed Solution
Mobile tray-based cell with onboard robotic unit. Equipped with a lightweight collaborative robot—suitable for applications up to 5 kg—it addresses the need for operational autonomy and rapid reconfigurability of CNC machining centers.
The system enables automatic storage and retrieval of both kitted materials and individual parts with variable weight and length.
Rear-access drawer trays can be removed and refilled while the machining center remains in operation.
Solution Advantages
- Up to 30% reduction in setup time with collaborative robotics
- Flexible automation, easily integrated into cells or flexible production lines
- Optimization of workflows and machine utilization
- Fast return on investment for machining centers
