Project RoBIN, with which we developed a robot cell equipped with a bin-picking system for handling products in bulk, was selected as one of the best projects, supported by the Ministry of Economic Development and Technology of Slovenia in the year 2022. It is presented in the brochure The best 22 in 2022, issued by the Ministry.

Within the project, we have developed several new breakthrough solutions that represent progress in the field of state-of-the-art technology. A remarkable handling time reduction was achieved by combining the optimized bin-picking system, secondary fly-scan mode, and an innovative design of the robot cell. The development was focused on reaching a universal system capable of picking and positioning many types of products in bulk (at least 10) of various shapes, which represents a key competitive advantage of the robot cell RoBIN.

The project was partially co-financed by the Republic of Slovenia, i.e. The Ministry of Economic Development and Technology, and the European Union, i.e. the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). TPV AUTOMOTIVE was the leading partner, and in the development of the machine vision system, the supporting partner was the company Alpineon d.o.o., which is also our development partner on other similar projects.
