Yaskawa has added new functions to its MP3300iec RBT solution from the ‘Singular Control’ end-to-end solution, which enables robots, servo drives, inverters and I/O systems to be controlled from a single controller. ‘Circular Conveyor Tracking’ allows automatic tracking of linear conveyor movements. By calculating the corresponding radius, the software can determine the exact position of
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
The LR-10iA/10 mounts on the floor, upside down, or at an angle. FANUC claims that the robot can be easily installed on an automated guided vehicle or other mobile platform to perform many repetitive tasks or to automate idle machines. FANUC America, a leading provider of CNC machines, robotics and robots, has introduced the new
It is not enough to use automation processes, you have to take into account several components to get the most out of it. Errors and mistakes are common when setting up automation processes in manufacturing. Now professionals debate whether these gadgets in manufacturing will create more jobs than they displace, and 52% suspect they will.
In New York City you can find skyscrapers that would provide you with an incredible view, and you could also find one of the most dangerous jobs performed by humans, that of cleaning windows at a great height. And what if a robot could perform this task? Well, Ozmo, a high-rise window cleaning robot, will
Manufacturers are not fully aware of the possibilities and benefits that the Internet of Things (IoT) can offer. According to a report by consulting firm Sikich, 30 percent of manufacturers fail to understand the IoT at all. However, their lack of understanding has not prevented them from making the Internet of Things a priority in
The demand for effective robotic solutions is increasing as a result of increased automation, adaptation to new labor-saving production processes, and the repercussions of Covid-19. This is especially true in industries where logistics is critical, such as food, medicine and cosmetics, where the need to improve efficiency by automating the packaging and stacking of individual
With a focus on flexibility, modularity and ease of use, KUKA AI North American nation presented various innovative automation technologies and solutions at the Canadian producing Technology Show 2021, as well as container selection and machine care. Fair attendees enjoyed innovations such as KR AGILUS 6-axis compact robots, KR C5 small robot controller, ready2_educate mobile
Artificial Intelligence (AI) makes it possible for machines to learn from past experiences and stimuli. It has created robots and machines currently capable of participating in numerous fields. This contribution has been considered of great importance to mankind. As technology advances, researchers are developing new and better forms of AI that can be easier and
