KAD3 MotionPilot
Intelligent cobot control for handling, picking and automated operations.
Operational cobot control for handling, picking and automated operations
What it does
- Receives target coordinates and operational parameters from the vision layer or external systems.
- Transfers to the cobot the information needed to execute pick, place and handling cycles.
- Coordinates communication with PLCs, HMIs and automated cell subsystems.
- Supports manual, automatic and maintenance modes.
- Contributes to safer and more traceable management of the robot cell.
Value for the business
MotionPilot suits companies that want to reduce repetitive manual interventions, standardise cobot movements and integrate the collaborative robot with industrial supervision systems. The expected result is greater operational continuity, with more controlled execution times and reduced process variability.
Why introduce a dedicated motion control layer
Industrial integration
The solution is designed to communicate with PLCs, HMI panels and orchestration software, facilitating coordination between plant logic and cobot operation.
Cycle precision
The translation of coordinates and parameters into robot commands enables more stable management of pick, handling and deposit operations.
Application flexibility
MotionPilot can be configured for automated cells dedicated to picking, component handling, tray loading/unloading or other repetitive operations.
An operational chain designed for real-world automation
Data acquisition
The system receives pose, coordinate and process parameter data from an external source or vision module.
Validation and execution logic
Information is verified and matched to cell operating logic, including trigger conditions, process confirmations and progress states.
Sending to the cobot
The robot receives movement targets and starts the operations planned in the automatic cycle, under supervision of the control layer.
Monitoring and feedback
Cycle status, any alarms and completion information are reported back to the management system or operator.
Contexts where the solution applies
Frequently asked questions
Is MotionPilot software for any cobot?
The solution is designed as a customisable application base. Compatibility depends on the required configuration, available protocols and the customer's cell architecture.
Can it work with a vision system?
Yes. The solution is designed to integrate with vision modules and industrial control systems, receiving coordinates and gripping parameters in a structured way.
Is it suitable outside the logistics context?
Yes. Beyond picking, it can be evaluated for handling applications and automated operations where translating process data into repeatable robotic movements is useful.
