Pickmaster3

Hi everybody,

i want to discuss all the pros/cons of Pickmaster3 software package compared to simple smart camera solution.
Please correct me if i am wrong, according to my understanding Pickmaster3 makes commissioning much simpler for delta pick and place operations, but its not 
mandatory to have it and with basic conveyor tracking + smartcamera vision system (sick,cognex,..) it can be implemented just as well?
With conveyor tracking option, the encoder cards are also provided by abb or you order them separately?
Thank you for your help.
