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
With a manufacturing output of £183 billion, the UK ranks ninth in the world, but due to its slow adoption of industrial automation, its position at the top is in jeopardy. Even countries such as Slovenia, Slovakia, Finland and Hungary are catching up with the UK in the use of robots. The UK automation community
Yaskawa America, Inc.’s Motoman robotics division (Yaskawa Motoman) and Rapid Robotics have announced a new combination to enhance the industrial capabilities of the Rapid Machine Operator (RMO). As a result, RMO will be able to meet the diverse demands of North American manufacturers by offering increased speed, payload capacity and performance. Rapid Robotics has sought
Through the Renewable Energy Sources Directive and the Energy Efficiency Directive, the European Union has set as its main objective to maximise the energy efficiency of its Member States. By 2030, it aims to reduce primary energy use by 39% and final energy use by 36%. Energy efficiency is increasingly crucial as industry becomes more
US-based Motoman Robotics presents its new collaborative robot (cobot) for the first time. The HC20XP cobot’s extended reach makes it ideal for end-of-line palletising applications. The cobot can reach entire 80-inch pallets thanks to its extended reach and without the aid of a lift or hoist. At the same time it can move heavier boxes
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
