Cobots that work alongside humans in automated processes are already in the future. Collaborative solutions are already transforming the way we operate and eventually the industrial world we know, whether they are used in production, storage, maintenance or training. They are also suitable for entry level automation applications because they are easy to develop and
The Fourth Industrial Revolution has robotization and artificial intelligence in companies, two of the keys that will create a completely new ecosystem. The types of industrial robots available today in the industry are fully adapted to new needs. Currently, robots such as the AVG or Scara models have been updated to be able to serve
In the Production and Processing line, KUKA Robotics displayed its extensive product line of automation solutions tailored to this segment of the industry. Food processing industries can now use robots to automate processes that were previously difficult, if not impossible, to automate thanks to this diverse range of products. The KUKA Food Series is available
FANUC’s newest collaborative robots, the CRX series, are designed to make cobot installation and programming easier than ever. CRX-series robots meet the same high-quality requirements that consumers have come to expect from FANUC products. The small, lightweight form factor makes it easy to incorporate into any work environment or existing system. They have a smooth,
The NSF was awarded to an interdisciplinary team that includes collaboration between the University of Minnesota Taubman School of Architecture and Urban Planning and the College of Engineering, as well as external research collaborations with the University of Florida and Washington State University. KUKA Robotics robots are helping the University of Michigan (U of M)
According to Automation World’s recent robotics adoption survey, some vertical industries saw a significant increase in investment in robotics due to the need to socially distance, reorient supply chains and increase throughput, and others saw investment paralysis. As demand for their products fell, their decision-making process was paralyzed by political and economic uncertainty. Despite the
When a robot operates without a vision system, the working environment must be configured and the robot must always access a predefined location, forcing it to employ high-precision positioning systems for the things to be handled so that the robot go to the exact location. Due to the fact that vision systems allow to establish
When choosing a robotic welding system, manufacturers need to consider several components: WHAT ARE THE COSTS AND WHAT IS THE PROFITABILITY OF MY INVESTMENT? Today, most industries use modern welding technologies to take advantage of their advanced properties and versatility. Automated systems, such as orbital welding, have become a primary alternative in welding. They result
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
The demand for effective robotic solutions is increasing as a result of increased automation, adaptation to new labor-saving production processes, and the repercussions of Covid-19. This is especially true in industries where logistics is critical, such as food, medicine and cosmetics, where the need to improve efficiency by automating the packaging and stacking of individual
