IS IT WORTH INVESTING IN ROBOTS?

Companies must allocate funds for a risk assessment to ensure compliance with RIA safety regulations, as industrial robotic technologies are a costly investment. The cost of safety precautions suggested in a risk assessment can exceed $15,000 for a robot costing between $50,000 and $60,000. Omitting safety jeopardises workers’ lives, legal liabilities, insurance and shutdowns. Many

ROBOTIC BLACKSMITHING

The production of high-quality structural elements can undergo a revolution thanks to “robotic blacksmithing“. Metamorphic production combines the precision and control of machines and robotic systems with the gradual deformation of a blacksmith. A group of undergraduate students at Ohio State University demonstrated the fundamental idea of robotic blacksmithing, formally known as metamorphic manufacturing, in
