The KUKA KR 510 R3080, part of KUKA’s QUANTEC/FORTEC family, is one of the most powerful high-payload industrial robots available on the market. Designed to handle extremely large and heavy parts—with a nominal payload of around 510 kg and a reach exceeding 3 meters—it offers a combination of strength, reach, and repeatability that makes it
In the era of accelerated automation, many factories face the same dilemma: their robots work, but their control systems are outdated. The solution? Retrofitting. Modernising an obsolete industrial robot not only saves investment, it also prolongs its service life and improves its performance at a much lower cost than a new machine. What is robotic
In the world of industrial robotics, FANUC and Yaskawa Motoman have established themselves as two of the most recognized brands globally. Both companies offer robust and reliable solutions for a wide range of applications, from welding and assembly to palletizing and material handling. However, their technical approaches and design philosophies differ in ways that can
In the ever-evolving landscape of both conventional and Industry 4.0 robotics, the efficient design and use of robotic work cells is essential. Within this context, Realtime Robotics, a key player in intelligent automation, has made a significant breakthrough by unveiling two new direct integrations for its revolutionary cloud-based platform, Resolver. These additions not only broaden
In today’s ever-evolving industrial landscape, the traditional image of massive factories filled with sprawling machinery is giving way to a new reality. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are now discovering that robotics is no longer the privilege of large multinationals. Thanks to technological advances, compact and collaborative robots are revolutionizing productivity even in tight spaces,
Universal Robots, the global leader in collaborative robotics, has unveiled its latest model, the UR15—hailed as the fastest cobot in its lineup. This new release marks a major step forward in industrial automation, offering an unprecedented blend of speed, precision, and versatility. Positioned between the UR10e and UR20 models, the UR15 strikes an ideal balance
The advancement of industrial automation demands robotic solutions that combine strength, precision, and adaptability.

It’s specifically designed to tackle complex challenges in industries such as automotive manufacturing, battery production, and metal construction. With a payload capacity of up to 500
In a world where automation is advancing at an unprecedented pace, the demand for specialized robotic solutions has evolved from a trend into an industrial necessity. Within this context, the FANUC SR-12iA/C robot emerges as a central figure—not only for its power and precision, but also for its ability to operate in environments where cleanliness
Industrial Automation: Overcoming Challenges for SMEs with the OPERA Project Industrial automation has been a cornerstone in the evolution of modern manufacturing. However, its effective implementation in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) has faced significant challenges, such as the complexity of programming and system integration. The OPERA project, led by KUKA in collaboration with the
Industrial Automation: A Leap Forward with FANUC’s SCARA SR-12iA/CIndustrial automation has experienced exponential growth driven by the need for efficiency, traceability, and consistency in production processes. In sectors where cleanliness and hygiene are critical—such as food, pharmaceutical, or semiconductor industries—conventional robots often fail to meet the required standards. In this context, FANUC has introduced a
