This presented an opportunity to simplify and improve Inbolt&#8217;s validation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With RoboDK&#8217;s powerful simulator, they created a system for evaluating station configurations, ensuring a robot could consistently reach the required positions throughout its motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-the-robodk-application-came-together\">How the RoboDK Application Came Together<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To build their application, the team at Inbolt followed a structured approach centered on creating an efficient, real-world-inspired process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Features of the application included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Production line simulation with a moving conveyor to replicate factory conditions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Incorporation of a simulated camera to track parts as they move on the conveyor, providing real-time position data to the robot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Analysis of simulation results, such as cycle times, to refine the created robot program to align with client requirements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In their test setup, the team programmed the robot to start working on parts as soon as they entered the camera&#8217;s field of view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the data analysis, the team can quickly make adjustments to the application until they find the optimal setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the system was centered on validating the feasibility of the system, RoboDK was the only software used, with no need for hardware integration at this stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Inbolt project used RoboDK simulations for real-time industrial validation - RoboDK\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TCb4iCrRs1A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-core-challenges-of-dynamic-production-that-inbolt-addresses\">5 Core Challenges of Dynamic Production that Inbolt Addresses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The solution that Inbolt built addressed some core challenges that are common when working with moving production lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are challenges they addressed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-achieving-real-time-tracking-accuracy\">1. Achieving Real-Time Tracking Accuracy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Synchronizing robotic movements with fast-moving objects on a conveyor can often lead to delays or tracking errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By integrating Inbolt&#8217;s 3D camera technology into the process, Inbolt could capture live positional data for accurate real-time tracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-handling-variable-line-speeds\">2. Handling Variable Line Speeds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The dynamic nature of modern factory environments means robots need to adapt to variable line speeds depending on the particular production line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The solution allows the team to test and adapt to different line speeds in a simulated environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-removing-hardware-limitations\">3. Removing Hardware Limitations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The traditional approach to creating such advanced robotic applications would require significant testing with physical hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By using robot simulation, Inbolt created a feature that allows their Field Application Engineers to quickly test changes to their programs without costly physical testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-balancing-cost-and-time-efficiency\">4. Balancing Cost and Time Efficiency<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cost and time are always important factors when creating and testing robotic applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using RoboDK allowed the team to both speed up their design process for clients and give them extra confidence before moving on to physical testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-validating-and-optimizing-station-configurations\">5. Validating and Optimizing Station Configurations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A significant benefit of the solution is how easy it makes validating and testing different station configurations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company&#8217;s Field Engineers can use a single software to test station configurations, validate them, and share the simulations with clients for better communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-robodk-was-the-right-choice\">Why RoboDK Was the Right Choice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The team at Inbolt looked at various robot simulators before choosing RoboDK for the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They looked at both industrial and academic simulators and concluded that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Conventional industrial tools were too expensive, vendor-restricted, and required specialized training.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Academic tools, although often open source, demanded advanced programming skills and a lot of customization.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Albane Dersy, Co-founder and COO, Inbolt, explains: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"is-style-plain\">RoboDK was a great fit for this project because it made the simulation process straightforward and flexible. It let us test different station configurations efficiently, without requiring a physical robot or other hardware.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The ability to simulate the moving production lines and verify robot performance in real-time significantly simplified the company&#8217;s validation confidence. This both saved them valuable time and gave them extra confidence in their designs before physical testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/robodk.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RoboDK-Software-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/robodk.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RoboDK-Software-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/robodk.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RoboDK-Software-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/robodk.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RoboDK-Software-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/robodk.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RoboDK-Software-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/robodk.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/RoboDK-Software-2048x1152.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-s-next-for-inbolt-and-robodk\">What&#8217;s Next for Inbolt and RoboDK<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This development is just the latest in Inbolt&#8217;s innovative solutions for industrial robotics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The team plans to expand on this solution by applying a similar process to other dynamic industrial processes. They are also considering upgrading this solution by adding real-time depth camera to the data, allowing more detailed tracking capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project represents a valuable approach to test and validate industrial robotics processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By using the power of RoboDK and combining it with their own expertise, the team at Inbolt transformed what could have been a lengthy and expensive challenge into a streamlined, future-ready solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Which of the challenges mentioned most aligns with your situation? <strong>Join the discussion on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/robodk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/robodkinc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/robodkinc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/robodk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, or in <a href=\"https:\/\/robodk.com\/forum\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the RoboDK Forum.<\/a>.
