Project Description

As an intern in Automatic & Robotic, you will simulate and demonstrate the feasibility of loading and unloading automatically the taper handler “ISMECA NY20”, using URx robot in “robot” and/or “cobot” mode. 

• .Define the best gripper for the tube(s) and reel (vs production risk)

• Design, simulate and optimize the setup you propose.

• Build/Create the setup in a safe development area (not in production).

• Perform measurement to confirm: performance (timing), accuracies and repeatability.

• Define/Propose improvement needed to create a production version.

Project Goals

• Create a first “laboratory” solution to automate tubes and reel handling of standard Tape on Reel equipment (ISMECA NY20).

Your profile

• Good robotic and programming skills.
• You enjoy challenges and get inspired by “building” a technical solution.
• You feel comfortable with basic mechanical and electrical design.
• Look for creative and cost-effective solutions.
• You are independent (MLX rules and procedure are limited) and ensure timely open communication with the team.
• We expect full project documentation(s) in English.

Duration & Location

• The project duration is flexible, estimated to be 4 months.
• We are flexible for the start and end dates.
• The work will be based at Melexis Ieper (Rozendaalstraat 12, 8900 Ieper).
• Partial remote location is an option (no need to be at MLX site each day/week).
