Understanding Force Sensors: How They Work and Measure Force
A force sensor measures mechanical forces, like a secret handshake between machines and the real world. These ingenious devices convert mechanical force into electrical signals, enabling us to measure, analyze, and interact with the physical world around us.
What Are the Secrets to Optimizing Motion Control in Robots?
Motion control optimization is about more than ensuring a robot can move. It must also move correctly; meeting the ideal speed, power, direction, length and timing. Assurance in each of these categories is necessary because these are what separate robots from human employees
Zebra Study: Only 16% of Manufacturers Have Real-Time Visibility into Manufacturing Production
While digital transformation is a priority for manufacturers, achieving it is fraught with obstacles, including the cost and availability of labor, scaling technology solutions, and the convergence of information technology and operational technology (IT/OT).
Trained quickly, inspected swiftly - Handling and defect inspection of indexable inserts
The German medium-sized company has developed a fully automated handling and inspection system in which the DENKnet solution for AI-based image evaluation plays a decisive role and sets new standards in terms of performance, zero-defect production and speed.
Making "cheddar" with industrial automation - Achieving 83 per cent waste reduction in food manufacturing
Ultrasonic uses energy from microscopic vibrations of a blade to pass easily through the material and offers a more effective solution for cutting food products. When paired with automation, ultrasonic technology can deliver precise and accurate cutting for manufacturers.
South Korea Tops in the Use of Robot Workers with 1,012 Installed Units Per 10,000 Employees
South Korea has Almost 7x more Robot Workers than the Global Average; the United States and Most European Countries are Far Behind
Harvestance - Developing and Designing Vacuum Grippers for Production Line Robots
Harvestance has received numerous inquiries for the design and manufacture of customized, lightweight, and strong grippers for collaborative robots, aimed at automating production lines.
The future of manufacturing: How cobots can combine with robot offline programming and 3D simulation
Cobots need effective programming to fulfil their capabilities on the factory floor. Without it, manufacturers face a scenario where they can't deploy them in the most pressing areas.
At least 60 million strokes
A "compact automation" is a mechatronic system that performs a whole series of consecutive production steps autonomously. "Compact" refers to the small dimensions, in the millimeter and centimeter range, of the products to be processed.
Using machine vision without prior programming skills
The integration of professional machine vision applications is usually very complex. Since no programming skills are required for such machine vision software, industrial image processing can thus also provide a valuable contribution to digitization.
