The challenge
Operators handled 400 °C castings by hand, with injuries and uneven quench timing.
What we built
A shielded arm, a thermal-tolerant gripper and a 3D vision pose estimator that adapts to casting drift on the conveyor.
Highlights
- Gripper survives 600 °C radiant load
- Pose estimation under steam and glare
- Light-curtain zoning with safety PLC
