KUKA training cell for hands-on education in robotics – Application Kit
9.3 The robot handling module
The two pipe magazines and the assembly retainer are mounted on a mounting plate which can be mounted
on the perforated plate of the training cell with the supplied mounting material. The module can thus be
completely removed from the training cell and reinstalled in precisely the same position later on if required.

This robot handling module supplies workpieces via a
slide, which the robot transports to the assembly
retainer. The sensor in the pneumatic gripper enables
the robot to differentiate workpieces by color
(black/non-black). The sensor in the assembly
retainer also monitors the orientation of the
workpiece.
From the assembly retainer, the robot sorts the
workpieces into various magazines or passes them on
to a downstream station. The combination with the
robot assembly module also allows workpieces to be
assembled.
