High Speed Adept Quattro Robot handling steel balls on conveyor
www.adept.com The High Speed Industrial Robot Adept Quattro s650 robot handling steel ball bearings at high speed over a moving conveyor belt. This video demonstrates the unmatched speed of the Adept Quattro robot and technical achievements in robot system performance. This is more than simply motor speeds; to manage the robot doing this much in so little time takes a high performance motion controller, software, and electronics. To the user this means increased product throughput, but not at the cost of control over the motions. Adept’s SmartController CX and V+ programming language allow the management of the specific motions: speeds, accelerations and accel profiles, end-of-motion tolerances and behavior, etc. When manufacturers look at automation in a cost-per-pick analysis, being able to pick products faster and more reliably means an improvement to the bottom line. The unique patented design of the Adept Quattro robot enables this level of performance with its four-arm parallel kinematic (known as PAR-4). This is differentiated from the three-arm delta style robots commonly seen in the industry. The four motors share the load and contribute to the motion, thus reducing the load on the individual joints and allowing greater speeds, higher payloads, and improved performance throughout the entire robots work envelope. www.adept.com

Make it play solitaire!
wow, give me two!
just don’t give it a sword.
yes…but will it Blend?
Please demo one of these set up to do calculations on an abacus.
@leopower7 I’ve seen that robot…it really is that fast. The video is not sped up at all. Now who’s the fool?
@iRouRoui Let’s see if that holds when they start chasing you
lol what a horrifying sound
u have to have balls of steel to do that. XD
It looks so… I don’t know Sci Fi.
i need one
So Cool But Scary………
FOOLS!
don’t you realize the video was sped up? ¬¬’
@timbobel oooh, good point :p
@iamthechanceman ofcourse it does, but so far, nothing that can’t be done with existant technologies. I’m just pointing out they have to stop playing with balls and show us some impressive mass manufacturing!
@timbobel you don’t see the potential this thing has in mass manufacturing?
Very imperssive. Though, so far i have not seen a single useful application for this robot (on youtube). It’s only just moving balls around.
My union boss isn’t going to like this.
1:06 this looks so cool))
Was the large white housing for this made by a company called Isthmus Engineering & Manufacturing by any chance?
Woah, Imagine having sex with that!

*insert portal references and ball handling jokes here*
What a boring task.
No wonder they gave it to a robot to do.
@EmperorOfMars – The fastest in the world!
