Yaskawa, one of the leading companies in the industrial robotics sector, has unveiled its new Motopick 4 software, which makes creating and optimising robot palletising patterns simple and accurate. The software is compatible with the YRC1000 and YRC1000micro robot controllers, which are the most advanced and compact in Yaskawa’s range. The software offers an intuitive
FANUC America, a leading industrial robotics company, has introduced its new heavy-duty cobots, which can handle objects weighing up to 35 kg. Cobots are collaborative robots that can work alongside humans safely and efficiently. FANUC America’s cobots are characterised by their ease of use, flexibility and intelligence. The new FANUC America cobots are the CRX-35iA
FANUC supplied an industrial-scale laser cutting cell ordered by the UK’s Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) using a range of automated systems. The demonstration cell includes a 12 m x 4 m cutting table, a six-axis robot, a computer numerical control (CNC) system for the flatbed table and laser, all housed in a laser safe enclosure.
Although industrial robots have long been an important part of production, many people still think of them as expensive and difficult equipment with safety concerns. However, the deployment of industrial robots is becoming increasingly accessible thanks to lower prices and simpler programming, making them faster and easier for small and medium-sized enterprises to deploy and
Swifti CRB 1300, an industrial collaborative robot from ABB, combines speed and precision with a payload capacity of up to 11 kg. It can be used for a wide range of production and product handling tasks, such as picking and placing objects in specific locations and palletising. The Swifti CRB 1300, a cobot from ABB,
From automating monotonous activities to performing sophisticated and precise procedures, industrial robots have completely changed the way manufacturing and production processes are carried out in various industries. They are much more adaptable and efficient as technology advances, as their capabilities are constantly increasing. This article describes the 5 most important industrial robots to know about
Fanuc‘s SR-3iA/C three-axis and SR-6I/C four-axis pick-and-place robots are excellent for replacing manual labour and meeting the highest safety and hygiene standards in food, pharmaceutical and general production applications. To increase longevity and provide IP54-rated protection from water, dust and other contaminants, Fanuc’s latest SCARA models feature a white epoxy coating. They meet ISO Class
During the ProMat 2023 manufacturing, distribution and supply chain equipment and systems event in Chicago, KUKA Robotics demonstrated the ability of its KR CYBERTECH Nano robot to efficiently retrieve products from boxes or containers within a holding cell. The robotics is used in the bin picking cell to detect components to be removed using machine
Robots used in manufacturing and other industrial contexts perform monotonous, dangerous or overly precise activities that humans find difficult or disruptive. They can be programmed to perform a wide range of functions, such as welding, painting, assembly and material handling. Their ability to work efficiently and continuously without tiring or making mistakes is their greatest
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
