End users want implementation procedures to be more agile and adaptable in order to respond to delivery times and the particularities of each company. IMASD engineering has proposed a collaborative approach to meet the palletisation demands of the industry. IMASD’s CERES palletising cell is adaptable to any industry or type of company and is characterised
Typically, a gantry-type (also known as Cartesian, linear or transverse) top-mounted three-axis robot is used to demould injection moulded parts. Pick-and-place automation is commonly used to demould injection moulded parts. According to Fanuc Robotics programme manager for the plastics industry, Joseph Portelli, the demand for part orientation capability is increasing. However, today’s moulders are looking
The company said the SWIFTI CRB 1300 robot arm bridges the gap between industrial robotics and collaborative robotics, and ABB unveiled it. The SWIFTI CRB 1300 can be used for a range of manufacturing and product handling applications, including pick-and-place, bolting and palletising, with a payload capacity of up to 11 kg (24.3 lb). ABB’s
Gate grinding, filing, polishing and other material removal operations rely substantially on physical labour and require skill and experience to perform correctly. These tasks seem difficult to automate due to their complexity and subtlety, according to a paper from ATI Industrial Automation. Removing material from curved, rounded or irregular surfaces presents several process difficulties that
In Kangqiao, Shanghai, China, ABB formally opened its state-of-the-art, fully automated and adaptive robotics plant. The 67,000 sqm manufacturing and research facility, in which ABB invested $150 million (RMB 1.1 billion), will use its digital and automation technologies to produce next-generation robots, reinforcing its position as a leader in robotics and automation in China.

The smallest industrial robot ever made by ABB has been unveiled, opening up new opportunities for the creation of faster, more adaptable and higher quality smart wearable devices. Thanks to its small size, extraordinary payload and unmatched precision, the new IRB 1010 offers electronics manufacturers the ability to automate the manufacture of products such as
Fanuc is showcasing new solutions for industry, including an enhanced ROBODRILL, the R-2000iC/190S high-precision machining robot, the ceiling-mounted SCARA SR-3iA/U robot and the latest iteration of the CR-35iB collaborative robot, demonstrating the company’s dedication to research and development. Tom Bouchier, managing director of Fanuc UK, says that technological innovation and a strong commitment to R&D
ABB‘s latest collaborative robot, the GoFaTM 15000, will be on live display in a cell with two other cobots, performing both an arc welding application and a collaborative part picking application. By combining the cobot’s simple programming, welding software and 3D machine vision, we can create a welding island tailored to the demands of those
During PACK EXPO Las Vegas, FANUC America, a supplier of CNCs, robots and ROBOMACHINES, showcased a wide range of automation solutions for picking, packing, fulfilment and palletising. Palletising, packing, inspection and other tasks can be carried out with the help of FANUC’s CRX cobot, which is a simple and adaptable tool. The CRX cobot can
