Fastest tracking speed available
ABB’s advanced conveyor tracking module delivers
market leading tracking speeds that enable highspeed
picking, packing, and palletizing for significantly
increased productivity. The module offers
tracking speeds of up to 1.7 meters per second and
100 meters per minute.
Variable and circular tracking for flexible installation
With support for variable and circular tracking, the
advanced conveyor tracking module ensures flexible
installation and enables customers to handle a wide
variety of packages for mass customization. The module’s
tracking speed can be adjusted from variable
to constant, and constant to variable. Moreover, it
features reachable targets to enable picking at higher
and more variable conveyor speeds, which provides
higher pick rates and eliminates sporadic reach errors.
Regarding circular tracking, the module supports
tracking in radians, which can be adjusted from circular
to inline flow, and from inline to circular flow.
Required parts reduced from 12 to 1
For a four-robot, three-conveyor system, the number
of required conveyor tracking modules decreases
from 12 to 1. Additionally, field wiring is decreased
by 60%, streamlining installation and lowering total
integration costs.
Multiple I/O connectors for easy integration
The module also features multiple connectors for integrating
up to 8 cameras/sensors and 4 conveyors/
encoders. The advanced conveyor tracking module
can be easily integrated with PickMaster, RobotWare
6, and all ABB robots. It is suitable for all markets, including
Food & Beverage, Consumer Packaged Goods,
Logistics , Automotive parts handling, 3C assembly,
Pharmaceutical, and Medical Devices.
Supports convenient expansion
The advanced conveyor tracking module supports a
scalable solution for convenient expansion. Customers
can configure the modules to support specific
interfaces according to their usage requirements,
for example 16 conveyors (4 CTMs) and 4 robots
(scalable to 40).
