3D bin picking
3D localization of loose parts allows the robot to calculate the optimal pick without a dedicated gripper or organized feeding. At Psycle, vision models adapt to the diversity of shapes and materials.

case study
Robot arm-mounted inspection
Mounting the camera directly on the robot arm makes it possible to combine guidance and quality control in a single cycle, with no dedicated inspection station, reducing line footprint and cycle time.

Waste sorting
Machine vision identifies and classifies heterogeneous flows in real time by type, shape or color, to guide a sorting robot with a precision that conventional detection systems cannot achieve.

Go to the FAQ3D bin-pickingCan the robot recognize several product references mixed in the same bin?
Yes. The system identifies the reference of each part before picking it, among those you have shown it, and the robot only grips what matches the current order. References can therefore be mixed in the bin without prior sorting.
3D bin-pickingHow does the system tell the top of a part from the bottom?
Through 3D measurement and the part's appearance: it recognizes the visible face and determines how to grip it, including when the part must be placed in a specific orientation. This top/bottom recognition is one of the points we validate on your actual parts.
3D bin-pickingHow does the robot choose which part to pick from the bin?
It selects a part whose tilt and gripping surface allow a secure pick, and that can be reached without hitting the bin or neighboring parts. A part that is tilted too steeply or buried too deep is left for later: the pile rearranges itself as parts are picked.
3D bin-pickingCan part compliance be checked during bin picking?
Yes. The same 3D measurement used to guide the robot also makes it possible to check that the part is compliant before picking it. A non-compliant part does not move on to the rest of the process.
3D bin-pickingHow can you reduce the cycle time of a 3D bin-picking cell?
By reducing the time the robot spends waiting for the vision system. Psycle's robot guidance projects target short vision cycle times: the scene is computed while the robot is working, not between two picks. The overall cycle time also depends on the robot, the gripper and the part.
3D bin-pickingCan a single 3D bin-picking system handle multiple part formats?
Yes, that is one of the goals of the solution: handling a wide variety of formats and designs with minimal camera adjustments. A new part is presented to the system without rebuilding the cell from scratch.
