Our entry was for our HES Cobot Scanning project, where we designed, from the ground up, 7 robotic cells that scan historical aerial photographs. In it’s first 18 months, the automated system completed 1.7 million scans.
This project led to the creation of multiple jobs to help with the preparation of the photos prior to scanning, the quality checks and handling post scanning.
The project entailed a Siemens Hybrid PLC/PC ET 200SP Open Controller, controlling 7 workstation, with 7 Cobots, where each workstation has 2 high resolution scanners connected to 2 PC’s, alongwith the data going to-and-from a Siemens Comfort panel as the GUI.
