High-mix, low-volume manufacturing creates one of the toughest challenges in factory automation: pick-and-place robotics that must constantly adapt to new parts, new setups, and frequent changeovers.

Traditionally, deploying vision-guided robotics for these environments required significant programming expertise and long engineering cycles, making automation difficult to justify for short production runs.

In this episode, we explore how Zebra’s Aurora VGR Assistant is changing the equation with a no-code approach to vision-guided robotics. Instead of writing complex scripts, manufacturers can configure pick-and-place workflows using a flowchart-style interface, dramatically reducing deployment time—from weeks of engineering work to just hours.

We break down:

• Why high-mix operations have struggled to automate pick-and-place tasks
• How vision-guided cobots use cameras and controllers to identify and position parts accurately
• The role of Zebra’s CV60 camera and 4Sight EV7 vision controller in enabling flexible automation cells
• Why no-code robotics tools could make automation accessible to technicians—not just engineers

If your facility is dealing with labor shortages, frequent product changeovers, or rising automation complexity, this conversation will show how the next generation of vision-guided robotics platforms is making automation faster to deploy and easier to scale.
