Integrating a Manual Pipette into a Collaborative Robot Manipulator for Flexible Liquid Dispensing

Abstract: This paper presents a system integration approach for a 6-DoF (Degree of Freedom) collaborative robot to operate a pipette for liquid dispensing. Its technical development is threefold. First, we designed an end-effector for holding and triggering manual pipettes. Second, we took advantage of a collaborative robot to recognize labware poses and planned robotic motion based on the recognized poses. Third, we developed vision-based classifiers to predict and correct positioning errors and thus precisely attached… Show more

“…In the specialized literature, collaborative robots are recognized as entities integrated into various manufacturing-related sectors, playing an active role in processes such as wire harness assembly, screwing or unscrewing, distributing various materials, as well as picking and placing [33][34][35][36][37]. Collaborative robots, in contrast to their predecessors, stand out for their increased flexibility, successfully enabling a wide range of processes, including object manipulation, welding, finishing applications, machining, and assembly.…”

“…Specialized end-effectors for triggering pipettes have been proposed to operate commercially available pipettes. 4,5 However, these endeffectors limit the capabilities of the robot hand to operate other objects. Anthropomorphic hands may handle manual pipettes, but they impose many technical challenges on soware development.…”
