There is considerable economic benefit in recent years thanks to technological advances and the implementation of artificial intelligence in robotic automation solutions. The use of robots in various industrial processes and production lines has become a topic of interest again due to the technical advances in companies and the mobility limits created by the covid
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
Pick and place activities are prevalent in most robotic applications, both in industry (machine care, assembly or palletizing / depalletizing), as well as service sectors. These autonomous procedures are, therefore, more than consolidated in specific organized contexts and with certain types of components. When components with high variability or in less situations must be handled,
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
South Africa’s food and beverage (F&B) industry has never seen the future more uncertain as the consequences of Covid-19 have changed the consumption habits of changing consumers and retailers, supply networks have been halted along with analysis on food safety. They have been struggling to keep up with mega-trends like digitization and the evolution of
An advisory committee at the Manufacturing Automation and Robotics Summit 2019, discussed typical topics associated with automation installations and how companies can master them. UK manufacturing companies are forced to adapt to the confluence of major trends in labor supply, consolidation of the supply chain and optimization of the balance between quality and cost, a
The 13-position tool changer in pre-machining KUKA cell4 gives foundries more time and flexibility. In deburring, sawing, edging or grinding, the continuous collaboration between the robot, the actuator and the motorized spindle minimizes the number of important manual jobs. One build cell, variety of options – KUKA cell4 pre-machining was designed for the manufacturing industry
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
