Flexxbotics is offering robotic machine tending for quality inspection connectivity with the
complete range of 3D scanning and inspection products from LMI Technologies. Now,
companies can enable robot-driven manufacturing with Flexxbotics using LMI Technologies
to achieve closed-loop quality and Six Sigma consistency in unattended operations.
Flexxbotics’ FlexxCORE technology enables robots to connect and communicate with
equipment from LMI Technologies. With Flexxbotics, robots receive direct feedback based
on automated inspection results, enabling real-time adjustments to CNC machine programs
for autonomous process control. For inspection tasks, Flexxbotics orchestrates fleets of
production robots to achieve continuous operations, driving defect reductions while
improving throughput and increasing profit per part.
Flexxbotics compatibility includes the full line of LMI Technologies’ Gocator sensors – such as
3D point profilers, 3D line profilers, 3D snapshot sensors and 3D line confocal sensors – as
well as Chroma+Scan multipoint scanners and FocalSpec 3D line confocal sensors.
“We understand the important role that inspection technologies play in enabling smart
factory autonomy by providing the closed-loop feedback needed for autonomous process
control,” says Tyler Modelski, CTO and co-founder of Flexxbotics. “That’s why we’ve
developed a solution that is compatible with all types of inspection equipment, such as
probes, sensors, vision systems, lasers and gauges, CMMs and more.”
Flexxbotics’ solution digitalises robotic production with autonomous process control for
next-generation smart factory environments. It runs both online and offline so production
continues with or without internet access. Flexxbotics works with existing business systems
like CADCAM, DNC, SCADA, IIoT, MES, ERP, PLM and others for comprehensive process
integration.
A full set of bi-directional communications, transforms and routing capabilities are available
in Flexxbotics for connected inspection tools, robots and machinery.
