The Collaborative Formulator by Labman Automation

A Labman solution that involves robots supplied by RARUK Automation is The Collaborative Formulator. The system is an open platform collaborative system designed to intuitively formulate coloured products. Utilising a UR5e Universal Robots cobot to tend the formulating system, The Collaborative Formulator has an impressive dispensing accuracy of 2 mg and self-teaching algorithms for calculating robot coordinates and colourant dispensing parameters.
Owing to the collaborative robot arm, the Formulator benefits from the flexibility to be loaded and unloaded on an ad-hoc basis with minimum safety training or the need for tedious startup routines. The robot arm slows down and pauses for safe interaction and live, in-run vial transfers due to integration with a low-level LIDAR scanner further adding to the simplicity of the system operation.
Cobots provide other benefits for Labman’s offering to customers, by providing a flexible solution which can be re-deployed to other systems for future uses. The Collaborative Formulator’s smart rack LED lights and status light colours are customisable for different event types which allows further adaptability for future processes.
