Community Project
In need of an experienced controls engineer to assist with vision system improvements on an existing spot welding cell. The existing cell includes Omron controls, a Fanuc robot, and an Apera vision system. Two new inspection sequences will need to be added to allow the robot to have custom position offsets for both nut welding stations. All existing functinoality must be maintanied.
The camera system currently works, and should be a good enough framework for someone who understands vision guidance to make it work without being an Apera expert. We have contacts with Apera that can provide some support if needed.
