Vention Joins Yaskawa Motoman’s Partner Network to Enable Rapid Deployment of Smart Series Robots
Vention, a next-generation digital manufacturing platform for industrial equipment, is releasing new hardware components to support rapid deployment of robot cell equipment for Yaskawa’s Smart Series robots. Building on Vention’s library of over 500 modular parts and cloud-based 3D MachineBuilder platform, users can now design, order, and assemble customized equipment for robots like the HC10DT, MotoMini, GP7, and GP8 series—in as little as three days.
In line with Vention's mission to democratize machine design, new hardware for Yaskawa Smart Series robots is compatible with all existing components available on the Vention platform. Over a dozen examples of equipment designs are already available for customization directly on Vention's cloud platform.
End clients and integrators can also leverage the MachineBuilder to design their entire robot cell, including robot riser, part dispenser, part fixturing device, automated conveyor, fencing and guarding, and more.
"We are excited to partner with an innovative automation company whose products complement our Smart Series robots," said Chetan Kapoor, Senior Director of Technology Innovation at Yaskawa Innovation Inc. "Our customers and integration partners will benefit from Vention's rapid deployment capabilities."
"I believe democratization of industrial automation is a powerful long-term trend that will shape the industry in the years ahead, and the Smart Series targets a new category of customers in line with this direction. We are expanding our partner network with a company who invests in simplifying industrial automation deployments," added Patrick Halde, VP of Business Development at Vention.

uEye XC AUTOMATICALLY PERFECT IMAGES
Combining the ease of use of a webcam with the performance and reliability of an industrial camera? The uEye XC autofocus camera from IDS Imaging Development Systems proves that this is possible. Its high-resolution imaging, simple setup and adaptability make it an invaluable tool for improving quality control and streamlining workflows in industrial settings - especially for cases where users would normally employ a webcam. The uEye XC autofocus camera features a 13 MP onsemi sensor and supports two different protocols: USB3 Vision, which enables programmability and customization, and UVC (USB Video Class). The UVC functionality enables a single cable connection for easy setup and commissioning, while delivering high-resolution images and video. This makes the uEye XC camera an ideal option for applications that require quick setup and need to manage variable object distances. Additional features such as digital zoom, automatic white balance and color correction ensure precise detail capture, which is essential for quality control.
