Thinker Model A
A bin-picking robot that combines Thinker's "Think Hand F" robot hand with camera-based image analysis. It can flexibly handle tasks that have been difficult until now, such as picking transparent materials, soft/fragile parts, and items on flexible trays. It promotes the automation of processes such as inspection and inter-process transport, contributing to labor savings in diverse work environments, including those handling small-lot, high-mix products.
