The Puzzle Master was created as a means to showcase the advantages of integrating precision motion, vision and robotic control onto a single platform. It also demonstrates how DWFritz Automation can integrate off-the-shelf technology to design and build a complete automation solution in a very short time frame. The machine was conceived, designed and built in fewer than 100 days.
