Oxipital AI’s inspection and choosing options and Stäubli’s hygienic robotic had been demonstrated at Pack Expo 2024. | Supply: Oxipital AI

Oxipital AI, a developer of machine imaginative and prescient applied sciences for robotic automation and product inspection, is teaming up with Stäubli Robotics. Previously Comfortable Robotics, Oxipital is concentrating on meals processing, agriculture, and shopper items manufacturing for its know-how.

Stäubli Robotics’ product portfolio accommodates 4- and 6-axis industrial robots, cobots, cell robots, and automatic guided autos. The Duncan, S.C.-based firm stated its robots can work in a wide range of industrial sectors, together with automotive, metalworking, photovoltaics, meals, pharmaceutical, and extra. 

“Stäubli Robotics is honored to turn into Oxipital AI’s first Most well-liked Companion,” stated Mathias Konne, North American enterprise head at Stäubli Robotics. “This milestone acknowledges the earlier joint efforts and current collaboration between our two industry-leading organizations whereas paving the way in which for a fair brighter and bolder future. With this official recognition, and together with our widespread companions, we proceed to ship robotic techniques providing the very best worth and technological developments to our shoppers.”

The businesses stated that by combining Stäubli’s hygienic robots and Oxipital inspection and choosing options, the 2 firms might help guarantee constant and food-safe manufacturing with out relying on human labor for profitability.

“This partnership with Stäubli solidifies our joint efforts in serving to producers overcome a number of the most troublesome challenges in meals processing by using AI-enabled imaginative and prescient options paired with hygienic, high-speed robotic options,” stated Harley Inexperienced, VP of strategic accounts.

Oxipital AI spins out from Comfortable Robotics

In August 2024, Comfortable Robotics divested its comfortable robotic gripper enterprise and spun off its mGripAI 3D imaginative and prescient and synthetic intelligence applied sciences into Oxipital AI. Oxipital focuses on visible inspection duties akin to defect detection, quantity estimation, SKU classification, attribute segmentation, and conveyor counting. It’s going to additionally on robotic choosing in numerous industries, beginning primarily within the meals enterprise the place Comfortable Robotics has constructed its status.

Final month, Oxipital AI launched its VX2 Imaginative and prescient System, which makes use of AI for inspection and high-speed choosing purposes throughout food-grade and industrial sectors. Constructed on the corporate’s proprietary Visible AI platform, the VX2 is available in a extra compact bundle at a extra accessible value than its predecessor.

The VX2 has enhanced capabilities for inspection, high-speed choosing, and high-speed choosing with inspection, stated Oxipital. It asserted that the system ensures optimum effectivity and precision in all kinds of environments.
