FANUC's Industrial Robots and Automation Help EMP Compete Globally

FANUC America Corporation has released a new YouTube video highlighting Engineered Machined Products (EMP), an Escanaba, Michigan-based manufacturer competing globally with the help of robotic automation.

The video showcases EMP's commitment to market and product diversification as an increasing number of its customers are "on-shoring". Automation systems in place at EMP have been instrumental in allowing the company to meet increasing demands. With industrial robots and automation, EMP is able to compete globally, expand its business, and remain a strong and viable manufacturer based in Michigan.

Boston Dynamics Webinar - Why Humanoids Are the Future of Manufacturing

Join us November 18th for this Webinar as we reflect on what we've learned by observing factory floors, and why we've grown convinced that chasing generalization in manipulation—both in hardware and behavior—isn't just interesting, but necessary. We'll discuss AI research threads we're exploring at Boston Dynamics to push this mission forward, and highlight opportunities our field should collectively invest more in to turn the humanoid vision, and the reinvention of manufacturing, into a practical, economically viable product.
