I'm not sure adding a shaker will change our throughput tbh. Currently the characterization arm is 100% busy with even one shaker -- it uses the shaking time to set up other consumables.

To increase throughput we will need to relieve the arm of some tasks. Maybe we need to think about a little powder collection cell/assembly line where we:

  • place a crucible on a cart
  • cart moves over, ball is dispensed
  • moves, cap is dispensed on top
  • moves into vertical shaker
  • moves back to start position where the robot arm can resume
