Comau, a global technology company, will be exhibiting at Chicago's McCormick Place from May 6-9, 2024 in Booth 4441 to present its digital-driven technology designed to accelerate deployment, increase quality and ensure sustainable productivity inside and beyond the smart factory paradigm. Held every other year, Automate features the latest in cutting-edge robotics, vision, motion control and related technologies. To represent our vision of the future, Comau's theme for this year's show is the "Power of Automation".


Visitors will experience the power of perception-guided picking systems, vision-backed handling solutions,advanced arc welding systems, and wearable robotics that help increase operator well-being during heavy and repetitive tasks. All of these solutions address the increasing shortage of skilled labor and the continued growth of automation, which is expected to exceed a growth of +10% CAGR 2022-2030*.

In addition to these technologies, Comau will unveil a new generation of compact robots that specifically address the diverse needs found within automotive and non-automotive applications. To help companies save time, energy and resources, improving the quality of the production processes, Comau's fully-automated piece picking and bin-picking solutions can be applied across multiple industries including warehousing logistics. The company's upper and lower body exoskeletons will also be on display, and are designed to assist the wearer during lifting, bending and repetitive tasks to offer both muscular relief and reduced perceived effort. This is a concrete example of Comau's steadfast commitment to workers' wellbeing and to develop technologies that help companies achieve their sustainability goals.

Come see how Comau is applying its 50+ years of experience in automotive - one of the most complex realities in terms of processes, cycle times, flexibility requirements and the highest technology rate - to drive the power of automation within new markets and application areas that until now, have been largely inaccessible with traditional robotic technologies.

Stay tuned and we look forward to meeting you at our booth 4441 in Chicago!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
