In the Reliabotics Fortimo MPP (Multi-Purpose Platform)
In the coming years, there will be an increase in the number of industrial robots installed around the world. Automated 3D vision is an emerging trend in robotic work cells. The robot can use this technology to determine the location, size, depth, and color of an object. Logistics, food processing, life sciences and manufacturing are
Tecnoideal, an integrator for the medical industry, has just added new ABB industrial robots to its automated applications. After being acquired by Medica Srl, one of the first companies to provide worldwide consulting for the production of disposable products for dialysis and infusion, the company was transformed. From ideation, feasibility and design to installation and
Many were pleased with the technological advances when Yaskawa upgraded its most popular Motoman HP20 robot with the GP25: improved controls, higher payload and spindle speeds, as well as a hollow-arm manual spindle construction that allows for safe cable routing. However, several European buyers who had long admired the earlier HP20 still secretly longed for
ABB adds robots for complicated manufacturing applications to its family with the addition of two new robot families. ABB‘s IRB 5710 and 5720 robots offer higher productivity and better performance with increased uptime for applications such as electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing, foundry, forging, rubber and plastics, and metal fabrication. They offer increased speed, accuracy, flexibility,
Collaborative robots (cobots) were first designed to perform highly repetitive, low-weight work that allows them to operate safely alongside human workers without the need to design and build bulky fences or barriers, providing maximum flexibility and efficiency; in the assistance of machines, assembly and minor packaging processes. In recent years, its capabilities have grown. Cobots
ABB and its two new OmniCore controller partners. The new E10 and V250XT controllers, available for a number of robots in ABB’s portfolio, expand the control capabilities of advanced robots in a wide variety of industries, from electronics assembly to automotive, logistics and construction. The E10 controller was designed to supply ABB SCARA robots and
Small organizations will benefit the most from increased automation in construction, concludes FANUC, whose week-long open house attended by more than 1,000 experts revealed a sequence of emerging trends that the UK should adopt to produce an increase in 2022. Tom Bouchier, Managing Director of FANUC Unified Kingdom, said: IIoT has been around for several
According to a survey by Ware2Go, 67 percent of Americans now work from home. This means that they require easier Internet shopping access. As COVID 19 reinvigorates the way Americans shop, e-commerce is becoming more important than ever. Claudia Jarrett, Country Director for EU Automation, a supplier of industrial components, explains why industries must turn
The 13-position tool changer in pre-machining KUKA cell4 gives foundries more time and flexibility. In deburring, sawing, edging or grinding, the continuous collaboration between the robot, the actuator and the motorized spindle minimizes the number of important manual jobs. One build cell, variety of options – KUKA cell4 pre-machining was designed for the manufacturing industry
