Nowadays, automation and robotisation of industrial processes is an indispensable part of the industry. The main goal is to speed up production of components, just in time manufacturing, which relieves the need for storage systems and most importantly free up human workers so they can focus on higher-value work and improve their quality of living.
The thesis presents the development of the robotic cell for serving and manipulation of trays, developed at the request of the client. The thesis is divided into several chapters with an emphasis on the software part and the creation of a user interface. The second chapter describes the components of the robotic cell, from controllers, sensors to mechanical components.
The third chapter describes the programming process of the PLC control unit, some important functions and the creation of the user interface. In the following chapters there is also a description of used safety components and task and finally a description of how the robotic cell works and what it took to get it started.
