Trends Shaping the Automation Industry
The topic of retrofitting, i.e., the modernization of machines and systems into the digital age, is also an important trend in terms of sustainability, energy saving and resource optimization that we are also serving.
From Good Wood - Fully Automatic Wood Parts Inspection
"The German Brush Company" has implemented an image processing system from the Bavarian system house Simon IBV GmbH that uses robust IDS industrial cameras and SIMAVIS® H image processing software to detect even barely perceptible tolerance deviations particularly reliably.
End to End Automation Will Be Essential to Meet Changing Demands
Warehouse automation isn't brand new, and many units have some degree of automation integrated. The next step, and the key to ultimate efficiency, is to fully automate warehouse logistics.
Opinion: EU AI Act Will Stifle Robotics Innovation
Any policy that slows down the use of automation will cause operational inefficiencies. This is the last thing we need considering the global supply chain crisis.
Solving Worker Shortages in Food Service With Automation
There is no doubt that technology will become a critical component of our everyday food experiences within the next five years. Robotics and AI will facilitate better access to healthy food, while also reducing food waste to help our planet.
What Are the Differences Between Linear and Rotary Actuators?
Depending on the nature of the output motion, actuators can be divided into linear and rotary. Each of these is available in different versions and configurations that help deliver the desired outcome.
2021 Top Article - Collaborative Robotic Sanding with Kane Robotics and ATI's AOV-10
Using ATI's AOV-10 Compliant Orbital Sander and Universal Robots UR10e, Kane Robotics integrated an aluminum polishing application that multiplies productivity.
2021 Top Article - Sustainable Supply Chains in the Era of Industry 4.0
Because supply chains consume resources on a large scale, they are responsible for a disproportionately large share of the world's carbon emissions.
2021 Top Article - How to Find the Right Damper for Your Application
Industrial Dampers cushion vibrations in machines. In order to fulfill this task perfectly, there are a large number of different types. To find the right variant for your own application, the load cases should be examined in detail.
2021 Top Article - How a Team United in Just 18 Months to Overhaul How America Destroys Its Most Dangerous Chemical Weapons
CRG Automation and its team of engineers - with specialties such as mechanical, electrical and controls -began devising custom engineered solutions, often incorporating
advanced robotics.
You Know Your Company Needs Robotics, but Don't Know Where to Start. Here's How.
For companies still without an automation infrastructure in place - and if we're honest, that's likely the majority - it's time to catch up. Robotics help meet supply chain demands and improve employee safety.
Robot-assisted System with Ensenso 3D Camera For Safe Handling of Nuclear Waste
Anyone who has ever tried out a fairground grab machine can confirm it: Manual control of grab arms is anything but trivial. As harmless as it is to fail when trying to grab a stuffed bunny, failed attempts can be as dramatic when handling radioactive waste.
Big Trends in Offline Programming Software for Robot
In the world of robotics, Offline Programming (OLP) has come a long way in a short time, and the global pandemic has jumpstarted more innovation. Industrial robots have evolved to collaborative robots ("cobots") that work side by side with their human counterparts.
Adaptive Swarm Robotics Could Revolutionize Smart Agriculture
The multidisciplinary research team believes that by utilizing swarm robotics to reduce soil compaction and working to avoid herbicide-resistant weeds through nonchemical methods of control, significant ecological and environmental benefits can be achieved.
The Future of Robot Programming - Industrial Robot Programming Tool Supports All Phases of Automation
Self-sustainability means, of course, that the working systems between robots and humans can continue to function, and grow, into the future. Indeed, for manufacturers a key signifier of growth is acquiring more machines that also have more capabilities.
