Development of Robotic Sorting System for Small Parts Using SCARA Robot

Abstract

This paper is a research finding on the inspection of the camera module assembled in the camera module automation line and automation of the adjustment process. Parts such as camera modules, where foreign particles of several micrometers might cause defects in sensor pixel should be produced with facilities with clean areas to prevent contamination. When managing workers, production by automated robots is essential to prevent defects caused by foreign objects and human mistakes due to monotonous and repetitive tasks. In order to cope with the production process where products are produced through several processes and changes, flexibility with the product production, an automatic sorting system that is available for line reconfiguration and inline production is required. Recently, as the need to produce parts in a clean area increases, a sorting system that can produce small products as well as camera modules and can be used continuously or alone is needed. © 2021 IEEE.
