Small parts picking

This technology is available to UK manufacturers thanks to RARUK Automation’s appointment as a value-added distributor for EffiMat and it promises benefits in terms of speed, accuracy of pick, flexibility and space-saving. 

In common with Universal Robots and MiR – both of which are represented by RARUK Automation – EffiMat is based in Odense, Denmark’s ‘Robotic Valley’.

EffiMat takes advantage of factory roof space by storing inventory in towers that have a small footprint. Up to five boxes containing the required parts are simultaneously and automatically delivered to the picking station for manual selection or the system can operate fully autonomously with, for example, a Universal Robot picking the part.
