SEPRO AI - No Code Progamming

A FUTURE WITH NO CODE

One of the factors limiting the adoption of complex automation solutions is that programming and operating a robot can be technically challenging. This is not an entirely new problem. Almost 20 years ago, Sepro pioneered easier robot programming with its Visual controller, which includes a Simple Pick & Place feature. Even employees with limited training could use this system to set up a basic mold-release cycle. 


In recent years, however, the problem has become even more acute as employees with the necessary skills have become harder to find and retain, even as their importance in an efficient molding operation has grown. To help overcome this problem, Sepro engineers are working toward what they call “no-code” programming, with the robot controller using artificial intelligence (AI) to optimize trajectories and manage obstacles.


In an interactive presentation at K 2022, Sepro allowed visitors to reposition a simulated mold and other peripherals and then challenge Sepro’s AI solution to calculate the best possible trajectory depending on which of three primary objectives – maximum energy saving, minimum wear or fastest cycle time – is selected. The system calculates ideal trajectories before cycle start, without a single line of operator-written code.
