Material Inbound

Automated Solutions for Material Inbound

The Material Inbound can be configured individually depending on the scenario. 

Material Inbound

We offer a Material Inbound solution that enables traceability of materials, such as consumables, raw PCBs or component reels, from the beginning due to an integrated, fully automatic Scan&Label station. Other materials are possible on request. The ASYS material inbound scenario for component reels includes a component counter that counts the existing components on a reel and feeds exact values into any inventory database. It is also possible to feed in component reels that have been scaled down. This ensures a valid and coordinated process that eliminates the need for manual inventory of the component reels.


Product Overview

Material Inbound

The Material Inbound can be configured individually depending on the scenario. The modules are the Material Station, M-Station Reel, Scan&Label, Component Counter and Loading / Unloading Station. The station can be approache manually, by trolley or by AMR.

Scan&Label

Receiving station with smart software for autonomous material detection, allocation of the Unique ID and application of a label for unique identification.

Component Counter

Component Counter for automated counting of the number of components on the component reels. The component counter can be fully integrated into the inline process.

Loading / Unloading Station

Loading / Unloading Station for fully automatic loading and unloading of component reels into the Container.

M-Station Reel

Reel stations for the transport of individual component reels. They connect all elements of the inbound goods process, such as Scan&Label, Loading Station, Counting Station or Dry Tower.


Material Inbound - System Components

The Material Inbound can be configured individually depending on the scenario. The modules are the Material Station, M-Station Reel, Scan&Label, Component Counter and Loading / Unloading Station. The station can be approache manually, by trolley or by AMR.

1) M-Station Reel

The M-Station-Reel is a modular roller conveyor system to buffer transport goods, especially component reels and JEDEC tray stacks. The M-Station-Reel is divided in independent segments, with a number of 1, 2 or 3 segments. The handover and takeover process can be done manually by an operator or via the HERMES interface. There are several applications available, like a usage as transfer or buffer system to connect inbound systems or storage systems, e.g. Dry Tower. The modular concept allows to extend the system, depending on the number of required positions.

2) Scan&Label

The Scan & Label cell is the central element in the Inbound area. With this system, component reels in particular are received fully automatically without manual intervention, booked in the higher-level system and then labeled with a unique ID. Due to the modularity of this system, we have the possibility to integrate different inbound systems. Depending on the application and requirements, the appropriate system can be used. A special application of this system is, whether the existing manufacturer label of the component reel should be pasted over or has to be kept explicitly. In this case, it is possible to use the 3D camera to find and determine a free spot on the reel and to apply the label accordingly.

3) Component Counter

A component counting station is a recommended extension. This enables the number of individual components on a component reel as well as the stock in the database to be checked and corrected if necessary. This applies to new component reels, as well as to partly used reels that come back from the line and must be stored again. Our open interfaces allows to integrate different partners in the field of component counting into our solutions.

4) Loading / Unloading Station

The containers can be automatically unloaded in the Loading Station and loaded in the Unloading Station. A corresponding level of autonomy can be created via the upstream roller tracks, because a certain number of containers can be stored here.

5) AMR

The AMR stands for Autonomous Mobile Robot, also known as AIV (Autonomous Intelligent Vehicle). This is an autonomously operating transport robot. It is not guided, but acts freely in space via the SLAM principle, i.e. via sensors. SLAM stands for "Simultaneous Localization and Mapping" and does not require any installations in the existing infrastructure, such as guidelines or similar.


Keeping an Eye on the Material

We support different solutions that enable you to keep an eye on your material stock. The automatic counting of component reels, the allocation of labels with a unique ID, the reading and evaluation of RFID tags and the PULSE PRO software solutions for monitoring, management and calculation of material requirements.
