Description: With the advent of Industry 4.0, the demand for data has become a necessity to be included in the implementation of plants involving one or more robots and devices of various kinds. Intelligently monitoring the data inherent in the state of the components of the current application opens up new possibilities and process improvements. Thanks to the torque sensors on each joint of the KUKA LBR iiwa collaborative robot, it is possible to discriminate between two objects of the same shape, same weight, but different content, without the use of vision instruments, but only on the basis of the external torques detected by the robot itself. In this way, a series of data is collected which, fed to a neural network, can progressively improve the process underway and adapt the robot to its changing environment.
