  • Patent number: 11911913
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for transferring a pourable medium (10) from a first vessel (12) into a second vessel (14), by means of a robot arm (16), wherein a movement 118) of the robot arm (16) can be controlled by at least one movement parameter (BP), including, inter alia, the following method steps: d) determining the mass of the medium (10) transferred into the second vessel (14) as an actual filling mass (IFM), and also the variation over time of the actual filling mass (IFM) of the medium (30; as an actual mass flow (IMS), by means of a balance 124), c) calculating a correcting mass flow (StMS) as a correcting variable (26) of a first control circuit (28) while taking into account the actual filling mass (FM) and the intended filling mass (SFM), f) using the correcting variable (26) of die first control circuit (28) as a reference variable (30) of a second control circuit (32) for the purpose that the calculated correcting mass flow (StMS) is used as the intended mass flow (SMS), g) calculating

  • Publication number: 20230009062
    Abstract: System for automatically manipulating primary packaging in secondary packaging, comprising a robot having at least one robot arm with a clamping gripper installed at a tool centre point, wherein each tool centre point has a force-torque sensor, an image recording module for recording images of at least the upper segment of the primary packaging, comprising at least two stereo cameras for recording 3-D images, and one or more processors for providing a three-dimensional point cloud, controlling the image recording module and controlling the robot on the basis of the analysis of the three-dimensional point cloud and the measurements from the force-torque sensors.
