KPI Growth has an enemy called "Recurrence" - Fight it with Standard Work to Sustain the Growth.
Continuous Improvement is often misunderstood as an engine for solving more problems. In reality, the defining capability of a mature operation is ensuring the same problems never return.
Fully Autonomous Deliveries inside Multi-floor Buildings without Elevator APIs
Once a robot can move between floors without any changes to existing building infrastructure, operators get immediate ROI by freeing staff from repetitive delivery work while improving speed and convenience for residents and guests.
Stefa Mini Solutions for Next-Generation Robotic Applications
The Stefa Mini, Cassette and Nano Seals all have smaller cross sections than comparable seals in the market today. This matters because a smaller seal allows for smaller glands (the area the seal slips into on the equipment) and smaller glands mean overall smaller equipment.
How to Build a Digital Foundation for Your Robotics and Automation Strategy
A strong digital foundation brings everything together, allowing automation initiatives to scale, adapt and perform as intended. Without it, automation efforts often stall before they reach their full potential.
Powering Robotics: How Networks Enable the Era of "Physical LLMs"
Physical AI describes intelligent systems that can sense, interpret, and act in real environments. Think of self-driving cars navigating busy streets, robotic arms assembling machinery with precision, or smart grids adapting in real time to energy demands.
Facility Maintenance: Lavo Bot AI and NVIDIA Bring Autonomy to Exterior Surface Cleaning
Equipped with advanced mapping, multi-sensor vision and zone-based safety, the system navigates real-job sites with confidence—handling up to 6,000 sq ft/hour and supporting pressure-wash rigs up to 12 GPM and 4,500 PSI.
The ifm Obstacle Detection System (ODS)
The ifm Obstacle Detection System (ODS) optimizes the robot's overall performance by treating obstacle detection as a holistic system rather than just a camera. It provides reliable obstacle detection to protect people, equipment, and mobile robots.
Physical AI and Autonomy in the Construction Industry
Bedrock is taking advantage of the dramatic accessibility of GPUs and frameworks for scaled data access and training, combining it with our unique understanding of how to build and create autonomy solutions quickly and efficiently.
International robotic safety conference 2025: Key takeaways shaping the future of safe automation
The International Robotic Safety Conference highlighted how rapidly the safety environment is evolving, driven by new standards that reflect innovative robotics technologies and tightening global regulations.
How to Overcome Cobot Design Challenges
Although collaborative robots have become widely available and used in numerous industries, the professionals who design them frequently encounter and must overcome various challenges in cobot design. How should designers address them?
Robot-Driven Manufacturing Enables "Lights-Out" Production
The required solution would need to provide seamless connectivity and communication with the RoboDrill machines, as well as additional factory machinery throughout the company targeted for robotic automation moving forward.
Robotecki Redefines Robotics Precision Cutting and Drilling Applications with RoboDK
With their application, the team at Robotecki not only reduced labor-dependency for these key tasks, they improved the quality of production and throughput.
The Future of Autonomous and Wireless Charging
The real driver of change has been the need to reduce manual intervention and lower operational costs. When a robot can charge itself safely and autonomously, maintenance downtime drops dramatically, and so does total cost of ownership.
European researchers developed energy-efficient machine vision inspired by human eyesight and the brain
This enables, for instance, intelligent robots and drones that can operate independently in a rescue mission after an earthquake without constant network connections or bulky batteries.
The Role of Emotional Intelligence When Implementing Industrial Robotics
Emotional intelligence remains a vital leadership skill for manufacturing and industrial leaders embracing robotics. Here's why it matters and how leaders can foster it, helping organizations reap the full benefits of automation while maintaining human-centric workplaces.

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.
