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
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
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
Tecnoideal, an integrator for the medical industry, has just added new ABB industrial robots to its automated applications. After being acquired by Medica Srl, one of the first companies to provide worldwide consulting for the production of disposable products for dialysis and infusion, the company was transformed. From ideation, feasibility and design to installation 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
Fanuc is launching its latest educational package, which combines a vertical machining center with a CRX-10iA collaborative robot. Developed in conjunction with several leading industry partners, the ROBODRILL educational cell brings automated CNC milling to the training market at a competitive price. Trainees can receive hands-on experience programming and operating CNC machine tools, as well
Many were pleased with the technological advances when Yaskawa upgraded its most popular Motoman HP20 robot with the GP25: improved controls, higher payload and spindle speeds, as well as a hollow-arm manual spindle construction that allows for safe cable routing. However, several European buyers who had long admired the earlier HP20 still secretly longed for
ABB adds robots for complicated manufacturing applications to its family with the addition of two new robot families. ABB‘s IRB 5710 and 5720 robots offer higher productivity and better performance with increased uptime for applications such as electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing, foundry, forging, rubber and plastics, and metal fabrication. They offer increased speed, accuracy, flexibility,
