The Drive for Reliable Data: Using Real-World Inputs to Test MicroStrain Inertial Sensors
Inertial measurement units (IMUs) are essential tools for manufacturers of off-road heavy-duty vehicles and machinery. They provide critical information that is used to control, monitor and manage the equipment, but also to ensure operator safety during use.
The Colossus Robot on the Front Line Against Covid-19
These remote control and highly modular autonomous robots are proving to be valuable assets in the fight against Covid-19. Fitted with maxon motors, these versatile robots are also capable of supporting the unit in large-scale incidents. A report on an heroic collaboration.
Trends in robotics: Cobots, agribots and medical robots
From recreational robots such as drones, to critical operational robots in the medical field, robotic technology is changing our daily lives.
Speed and Precision or Compact to Power Pack? Drive Solutions for Laboratory Automation
Countless samples are tested daily in analytical laboratories. The benefits of automation in this area is obvious: They make it possible to achieve faster results, higher throughput, fewer errors and lower personnel costs.
New system reduces emissions and fuel consumption - FERRY IN LONDON MOORS MAGNETICALLY
The recently developed intelligent mooring system from iDL, the intelligent Dock Locking System from Dutch company Mampaey Offshore Industries, is the world's first magnetic mooring system. It makes it possible for a London ferry to dock in just ten seconds.
Gecko Robotics Scales to New Heights with Digital Manufacturing Partnership
For a world that relies on that infrastructure for essential access to everything from water to electricity, it's a frightening reality, and most feel powerless to do anything about it. From there came the lightbulb inspiration for Gecko Robotics.
Q4 2020 Trend: Immediate Delivery Autonomous Forklifts
Fewer than 2% of forklifts sold in North America are automated, yet there has never been a greater need for this technology. Many manufacturers are looking to automate material handling processes because it reduces the potential for COVID-19 exposure by reducing human contact.
Intelligent Image Processing Supports Production Workers in Industrial 4.0 Applications
Automation plays a major role in Industry 4.0. Cost reduction, increased productivity and zero-defect quality are factors that are increasingly prompting companies to digitalize their processes. But often full automation also means high investments.
5 Ways Automation Will Change the Nature of Work
Now that AI is on the scene, industry and commerce are on the verge of perhaps the greatest rush into automation ever, and the questions have turned philosophical. What will change in the day-to-day way that work gets done, and what will be required of tomorrow's workers?
ATI Develops Space-rate Force /Torque Sensor for Mars 2020 Rover
JPL needed an automated system for collecting and handling space material as well as moving it through the indexing process. Engineers developed the Adaptive Caching Assembly, an application that resembles a pick and place operation commonly found on a factory floor.
