When it comes to industrial robotics, precision and efficiency are key. In this sense, Fanuc, one of the world leaders in the manufacturing of industrial robots, has presented two of its most outstanding models: the Fanuc R-2000iB/165F and the Fanuc R-2000iB/210F. Both robots are notable examples of advanced engineering and cutting-edge technology. However, each has
ABB Robotics has expanded its range of large robots with four new models and 22 variants, offering more options, greater energy efficiency and higher performance. The new models, comprising the IRB 6710, IRB 6720, IRB 6730 and IRB 6740, are capable of handling weights between 150 and 310 kg and have a reach of between
The Fanuc M-710iC/70 robot is a 6-axis industrial robot with a payload capacity of 70 kg and a reach of 2050 mm. It is an innovative model featuring a slim wrist, a rigid arm and a small footprint. It is suitable for a variety of applications such as handling, packaging, welding, assembly and dispensing. BENEFITS
Can you imagine a robot that can work alongside humans quickly and accurately, without the need for physical barriers? Such a robot exists and its name is ABB’s Swifti CRB 1300. It is an innovative robot that fuses the advantages of industrial robots and collaborative robots, creating a new category of hybrid robots. The Swifti
With its intelligent production and research centre in Augsburg, KUKA aims to introduce 5G autonomous private wireless networks, intelligent robots and automation technologies. The campus networking and application platform for Nokia’s Digital Automation Cloud (DAC) will start supporting product development immediately. The most significant advance in industrial networks is 5G, which should be widely available
Between 2021 and 2026, the automated material handling equipment market is forecast to grow at a steady 12.0% CAGR. Manufacturers are using cheaper, more adaptable and agile robots to meet demanding requirements and remain competitive in the face of the global pandemic and beyond. This is especially true for applications involving material handling, such as
The vast majority of jobs still require manual programming, although new offline robot programming tools are evolving and becoming more widely used. The industry standard for CNC machine programming is to employ robust, easy-to-use offline software. As a result, overall manufacturing costs have been reduced, accuracy has improved, machine downtime has been reduced, more complex
Machine Tending is a term used in the industrial sector to describe the “care and attention of machines”. The metalworking industry, and more especially machining processes, is one of the industries with the highest demand for automated applications. These processes are repetitive and involve medium to long batches. As a result, companies want solutions that
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
Fanuc’s ARC welding robots will make automated welding more feasible for companies with limited floor space but massive work pieces. High-batch manufacturing lines, especially those handling parts larger than 1500mm in diameter, can benefit from the ARCMate 100iD/10L. Its repeatability and quality control capabilities make it a highly desirable addition to manufacturing lines that must
