Recipe Management
Vision, feeder, robot — switched with one recipe
Stop changing vision settings, feeder parameters and robot variables one by one for every product change. Select a recipe ID and all three conditions switch together.
01
Every value needed to pick one part is in there
One part, one recipe. The values you would otherwise have to set again at every product change are stored as one bundle.

26.1 × 16 × 16 
26 × 24.7 × 17.2 A different part means different pick conditions.
How it is called
127 slots
By number — PLC
The PLC sends a slot number over DIO or comms. Your existing changeover wiring is used as is.
∞
By name — TCP/IP
Send the recipe name itself. Not tied to the number of slots.
Slots are the numbers the PLC assigns; storage itself has no limit.
What one recipe holds
-

Flexible feeder Frequency · duty · time · direction pattern · delay -
Hopper Run time · frequency · duty · delay · fill level -
Robot Pick height · calibration data With RobotSuite the robot program, coordinates and variables too.
One part, one recipe — and a site with more than 300 SKUs runs this way.

Let's map out the recipe setup for your line
Recipe configuration depends on product count, changeover method and robot brand. We will help review your site conditions before adopting AimFactoryCore.
