Automation scenario programs

This article presents reference robot programs for the most common automation scenarios solved by Pickit. Each program contains best practices from its application domain with detailed explanations, so they can serve as good starting points for your application, while saving development effort along the way.

• Bin picking: Pick randomly oriented and overlapping parts from a bin, and place them in a designated location.

• Depalletization: Pick unmixed boxes or bags from a structured pallet and place them in a designated location.

• Part location: Follow a designated path relative to the detected part location.
