Yaskawa has introduced the new Motoman HC30PL collaborative robot, which can lift up to 30 kg and has a reach of 1,700 mm (from the centre of rotation of the S/L axis to the centre of rotation of the R/T axis). Because it can be used immediately within its area of operation without the need … Read more
The sealants are applied at Ford via a KUKA LBR iiwa cobot. Without the requirement for safety fences, it works alongside human workers and provides relief during the work process. Workers at Ford’s Cologne plant benefit from the adaptability, sensitivity and learning ability of the lightweight KUKA LBR iiwa robot. According to Michael Koch, production … Read more
To help companies address the welder shortage, ABB has introduced OmniVance FlexArc Compact, a new, more compact welding system with greater flexibility, simplicity and better integration. This revolutionary system helps fabricators maximise space because it occupies the smallest footprint in its class. It also allows flexibility because it can accommodate up to four additional robots … Read more
Industrial robots are constantly being upgraded and improved as technology advances tremendously as we move forward in the automation industry. Force sensing and robot vision are combined in industrial robots to generate haptic intelligence. These procedures are continually being improved by manufacturers, who also manage to raise production quality while reducing prices. FANUC force sensors … Read more
Industrial robots improve productivity, product quality and efficiency, making them ideal for manufacturers large and small. Many companies looking to automate their applications cannot afford the upfront cost of new equipment.

Machine Tending is a term used in the industrial sector to describe the “care and attention of machines”. The metalworking industry, and more especially machining processes, is one of the industries with the highest demand for automated applications. These processes are repetitive and involve medium to long batches. As a result, companies want solutions that … Read more
One of the most popular robotic automation trends is small industrial robots. The rate at which manufacturers are automating their processes is attributed to the proliferation of small robots. Small robots can automate processes that would be impossible for a large robot to do. Improved efficiency Because industries believe that robots are more reliable and … Read more
Robotic systems used in direct and indirect food handling are designed to withstand many washdowns. The robot must be built to withstand a large amount of water being sprayed from a high-pressure, high-volume hose. To improve the flow rate of product spills and cleaning solutions, surfaces should be convex, rounded or sloped. Robots used in … Read more
A collaborative robot collaborates with humans in a defined space without risk of serious injury or accidents. The appeal of a cobot is not only its collaborative aspect, but also its ease of installation and return on investment (ROI). The collaborative robot series has taken off in a variety of industries, enabling new technological breakthroughs … Read more
