This application example illustrates how processes in quality control for smartphones can be automated. For this purpose, an igus room gantry was equipped with a 2-finger vacuum gripper. With the help of an additional input pen mounted on the gripper, the robot can bring the smartphone into the correct position and then test the quality of the functions and touchscreen.
Gantry robots consist of several linear axes that enable multidimensional movements and can be used in diverse areas. Portals are also compatible with a wide variety of end effectors, camera systems and accessories. Programming is also easy with the free igus Robot Control.
