FANUC’s R-2000iC/190S 6-axis articulated arm robot is designed to overcome obstacles in precision applications such as direct component manufacturing. While the use of robots for milling applications is not new, most current solutions focus on workpiece materials such as plastic and resin. The R-2000iC/190S, on the other hand, allows users to mill more difficult materials
A collaborative robot collaborates with humans in a defined space without risk of serious injury or accidents. The appeal of a cobot is not only its collaborative aspect, but also its ease of installation and return on investment (ROI). The collaborative robot series has taken off in a variety of industries, enabling new technological breakthroughs
Maintenance of industrial robots is critical to ensure they work as intended for as long as possible. If your company has robots or you are considering adding them as soon as possible, understanding which maintenance practices to employ can help you get the most out of your investment. Dismantling a robot simply because it is
Line designers can now use one machine to perform multiple operations thanks to robots that are highly flexible and provide fast multi-tooling. The need to increase the efficiency of the production cells to obtain the largest number of operations in the smallest space. Plants in established car-producing countries cannot simply decide to increase their footprint.
At Modex 2022, FANUC America, the world leader in CNC, robotics and ROBOMACHINES, introduced new CRX collaborative robots, as well as a variety of automation solutions for the warehousing and logistics industries. FANUC CRX cobots are easy to use, reliable and versatile enough to perform a wide variety of tasks. When the CRX comes into
McStarlite is a California-based company that manufactures parts for the aerospace industry. Like lip liners, they are the doughnut-shaped lip that sticks to the front of an aircraft’s engine casing. This metal rim is machined and molded so that air flows smoothly around the engine. The traditional way of polishing lip skins was traditionally done
Is it better to be industrial or collaborative? We all want to get the most out of our production, but it is not easy to decide between the two options. It all depends on the environment in which the machine operates, how the operators need to interact with the robot and its main functions. Companies
