In the world of automation and robotics, autonomous industrial robots have become an essential tool to improve productivity and efficiency in various industries. These incredible devices are designed to carry out complex tasks independently, without the need for direct human intervention. Leading companies such as FANUC, KUKA, ABB and Yaskawa Motoman have developed a wide
Automated robotics offers the possibility to improve the performance, quality, and adaptability of production processes in different sectors. By using intelligent robots, human error can be reduced, the use of resources can be optimised, and products can be customised according to customer needs. It improves sustainability, reduces environmental impact, and increases quality. Builders can anticipate
ATX Robotics, a division of the Aritex Group, has launched a modular collaborative robotics solution for welding, with the aim of improving productivity and making Industry 4.0 accessible to all industrial companies.

Plus One Robotics, a provider of machine vision software and robotic package handling solutions, is using Yaskawa Motoman robots in customer induction and mixed depalletising programmes. FedEx Corp. has acquired twelve additional induction systems, adding to the four already in place at the FedEx Express Hub in Memphis, Tennessee. Plus One introduced mixed depalletising systems
ABB Robotics has expanded its range of large robots with four new models and 22 variants, offering more options, greater energy efficiency and higher performance. The new models, comprising the IRB 6710, IRB 6720, IRB 6730 and IRB 6740, are capable of handling weights between 150 and 310 kg and have a reach of between
To help its customers with more diverse automation applications, ABB has launched a new robotics ecosystem programme. The programme, in collaboration with a global network of partners, will enable end users and system integrators to easily access third-party innovations, such as certified peripheral equipment and software solutions. According to Andrea Cassoni, General Manager Global Business
Yaskawa America presented robotic automation solutions at Automate that improve production and enable smooth operation. Experts from Motoman Robotics and Drives & Motion Division discussed application requirements and provided inspiration for the shop floor. The demonstration showcases the GP12 robot, a high-speed induction work cell, which exhibits efficient robotic automation to meet order fulfilment demands.
With four new models and 22 variants, ABB Robotics is expanding its line of large robots with more options, wider coverage and better features. The IRB 6710, IRB 6720, IRB 6730 and IRB 6740 are new generation models suitable for payloads from 150 kg to 310 kg, with a reach from 2.5 m to 3.2
In 2019, 50-year-old UK-based Mitre Plastics manufactured a high-volume brass insert part for an appliance manufacturer. Mitre Plastics asked an automation supplier to create a concept design using its FANUC ROBOSHOT -S220iB injection moulding machine to identify the manufacturing process. FANUC and Mitre Plastics worked together to create automated robotic merchandising for white goods. When FANUC
