You know what makes a good meal any time?  Pancakes.  Breakfast, lunch, dinner, side dish, or even dessert, throw me down a stack of flapjacks with some syrup or fruit, and I’m a happy camper with a full belly.  Be they buttermilk or cornbread, pancakes are awesome.  You know what else is awesome?  This automatic pancake-sorting robot.  Now this is the kind of stuff we need science to do!  A better, safer, cleaner way to handle food is always welcome.

The top speed of that bad boy is 400 pancakes per minute, and it could probably handle an even faster rate of speed.  The machine doing the delicious dirty work is the ABB Robotics FlexPicker.  Actually, it’s four of them with cameras, working simultaneously to stack those tasty flapjacks for Honeytop Specialty Foods.  Just make sure you keep poor Pancake Bunny away from the machine, lest he be smothered with deliciousness!
