The Importance of the Speed-Torque Gradient in DC Motor Sizing
The speed / torque gradient is an indicator of a motor's performance. The smaller the value, the more powerful the motor and consequently the less motor speed varies with load variations. It is based on the quotient of ideal no-load speed and ideal stall torque.
Perceptions of Collaborative Robotics Post, COVID-19, Q&A with Productive Robotics
The benefits of collaborative robots have not changed. As we come out of this, businesses will seek ways to improve their production as they always have, and cobots provide excellent solutions to these challenges.
Grinding and Deburring in a Foundry - standard grippers from the Zimmer Group

Surviving a Global Cyberattack - Company Culture Plays a Pivotal Role
Pilz was hit with a ransomware cyberattack on October 13, 2019. In the following article, written by Mike Beerman, CEO, Pilz USA, discusses how Pilz not only survived the attack, but is coming back stronger than ever.
UAVOS COMPLETES TESTS FOR UAV DELIVERY SERVICE HUMANITARIAN RELIEF
The capabilities of the UVH-170 unmanned helicopter address many social (medical, pharmaceutical, remote communities, humanitarian aid, etc.) and economic (mining, oil & gas, courier, etc.) use-cases being requested by the customers.
The Future of Robotics and Liability: Who is Responsible?
For all of the potential that robotics and automation have brought to humanity's table, there are still concerns surrounding liability and robotics that will likely continue for years to come.
Understanding the Motor Constant in DC Motor Sizing
One of the most often overlooked parameters of direct current motors (both brush and brushless) is the Km or motor constant. The motor constant (expressed as Km) defines the ability of a motor to transform electrical power into mechanical power.
New Artificial Intelligence Error Proofing Features Machine Learning Technology
Checking for potential issues during production allows manufacturers to scrap or rework unacceptable parts at the beginning of a run, and correct issues before a lot of parts are produced - this saves a significant amount of time and expense.
Universal Robots Launches ActiNav, the World's First Autonomous Bin Picking Kit for Machine Tending Applications
ActiNav synchronously handles vision processing, collision-free motion planning and autonomous real-time robot control, eliminating the complexity and risk usually associated with bin picking applications.
