Mr Eric Potter, the Managing Director of FANUC Automation, comments on energy efficiency with industrial robots. Interest in and concern about the energy consumption of robots varies from area to area, mostly based on local energy prices, but energy efficiency is a case-by-case issue. When it comes to impacts on nature, there are benefits to
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.
