Bolletje, a Dutch bakery manufacturer, is automating its quality inspection process. A compact inspection cell, featuring a camera system and a four-axis robot, enables the inspection of up to 1,200 crispbread slices per minute. The image data generated during this process is analyzed using AI to optimize the system.
This automation is significant as it enhances the efficiency and accuracy of quality control in food production, ensuring that only high-quality products reach consumers. The integration of AI with robotics allows for real-time adjustments and improvements in the inspection process, which is crucial in maintaining product standards.
Bolletje's implementation of the Stäubli TS2-80 HE SCARA robot for sorting defective products marks a key milestone in their automation journey. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
