  not much lint in those.

  I'd be interested to see how they handle packaging with fibers.

  thanks for posting

  Those industrial robots are technological marvels. We had a couple at the business I worked at in the PNW. If you have a good programmer, and good maintenance, they provide significant value. Cheers, RickO

  Vision and pick and place robots are two cornerstones of modern manufacturing, especially in the US. Have worked with both extensively. Very cool to see the mint using them!

  PS: note the clear cage setup. Those arms get moving fast and can be bad for your health if you get in the way.

  Maybe they should be using them for customer service.
