Pick-it camera: Our robots learn to see

The Pick-it Vision System and the PANDA Robot Get to Know Each Other
To enable the optical detection of objects in three dimensions, we have brought together the Pick-it Vision System and the PANDA robot and created a common communication interface for them.

FRANKA EMIKA ROBOT Logs: Videos show human-machine interaction

FRANKA EMIKA ROBOTER application examples we already have many. In our FRANKA EMIKA ROBOTER logs, we reveal more tips and tricks to better align man and machine. For example, we organized a team event for a large Swiss customer where the participants learned how to program a FRANKA EMIKA robot within one day.

ISO GPS 8015 Best practice

What is ISO GPS 8015?
As already described in an earlier tip, ISO GPS 8015 is a collection of standards.

CAD Competence

The right tool selection for the specific job is one of the sources of our business in the service sector. It is about using this tool to enable – effectively realize – the manufacture of physical products. From our point of view, there is no “right” selection, but much more a “better or worse” one. The evaluation of such tools is demanding and keeps us vital.

Evolution: Panda growing up!

When we received our first Panda robot from Franka Emika GmbH, we unwrapped it with shining faces like little children at Christmas. Indeed, Christmas 2017 was just around the corner.

Recruiting: a new perspective

At Gimelli Engineering AG, we take an avant-garde approach to things in many respects. Not in order to be “forcibly” different, but because we have found that with new approaches not only the perspectives shift, but also the results.

Role model: Project manager

…what does that actually mean?With this report we would like to give an insight into the work of a project manager at Gimelli Engineering AG.

Biodegradable plastics

Many of us have already done this: in the garden you lay out a large area of black mulch film to smother unwelcome herbage. The film is only a few µm thick and, according to the seller, should have rotted away after 4-6 months. Now, after 18 months, the film is still in the garden and has not decomposed. A colleague at work deposited his biodegradable coffee capsules, another colleague deposited the biodegradable plastic bags in the compost, but neither have degraded.
