Unlike traditional overhead-camera systems, Inbolt mounts the vision camera directly on the robot. This approach reduces cost, increases flexibility, and enables robots to handle bins of any size or position. Our in-hand localization technology lets robots adjust their trajectory after grasping a part, ensuring accurate placement even with irregular shapes or orientations. The result is higher picking success rates, fewer errors, and lower overall automation costs.

Yes. Inbolt is designed for both semi-structured and fully unstructured bins. Instead of relying on rigid part orientation, the system identifies any graspable side of a part. Once picked, the robot uses in-hand localization to re-analyze the object and adjust its placement in real time. This human-like adaptability allows Inbolt to succeed where other systems fail, making it possible to automate even the most variable bin scenarios.

Inbolt requires only a robot-mounted 3D vision camera and our proprietary AI software. Because the camera is positioned close to the parts, it does not need to be expensive or high-resolution, making the setup cost-efficient. Unlike overhead systems that require one camera per bin and rigid positioning, Inbolt needs just one camera per robot—flexible across any bin size or placement.

In-hand localization is a core differentiator of Inbolt. Once the robot grasps a part, the camera continues to monitor and analyze it during movement. If orientation or position isn’t perfect, the software recalculates the placement trajectory on the fly. This ensures that every part is placed precisely, significantly reducing errors and rework while boosting throughput. It’s automation that adapts in real time, like a human operator would.

Inbolt’s bin picking solution is proven in automotive plants for handling raw materials like disc brakes, steering knuckles, and gears, as well as line loading body panels and small metal sheets. It’s also applicable in electronics, home goods, and general manufacturing where variability in bins makes automation difficult. Our system’s adaptability makes it suitable for a wide range of industrial bin picking and depalletization needs.

Manufacturers typically see ROI in 3–6 months depending on the application. By eliminating the need for costly fixtures, reducing placement errors, and accelerating deployment, Inbolt significantly lowers automation costs. Customers also benefit from higher throughput and fewer manual interventions. In one case, Stellantis achieved a 12-month ROI while saving over 2.7 tons of fixture hardware weight daily.
