The State of Robotic Depalletizing
One significant trend is the emergence of mixed-SKU depalletizing. As 3D vision systems continue to improve, robots will become increasingly capable of identifying and handling pallets containing different products, making this type of application more common.
When the material changes, the machine must change
Here, Nigel Smith, CEO of TM Robotics, Shibaura Machine's official distribution partner for injection moulding machines and automation systems in the UK and Ireland, explains why processors must select moulding systems to handle a broader material mix.
Charging Is the AMR Decision Nobody Models Until It's Too Late: How to Get Fleet Charging Right Before It Costs You

Charging strategy, battery chemistry, and the electrical infrastructure behind them quietly determine whether a fleet delivers the throughput it promised or stalls when demand is highest.
5 Hurdles in Deploying Fleet Robots for Utilities
Deploying autonomous systems across substations and remote power infrastructure reveals a gap between laboratory testing and real-world performance. Utilities must overcome these challenges before fleet automation becomes practical at scale.
Small Team, Big Output: The Wine Bottler Bulles Création Automates Its End-of-Line with Robotiq Cobot Palletizing
Bulles Création built its business on flexibility, bottling for local winemakers while developing its own effervescent drinks. But as demand grew, the company's production tools couldn't keep up. Its packaging line was capped at 1,500 bottles an hour.
Chasing Value not Volume: The Data Strategy that will Enable Physical AI in Manufacturing
The Physical AI companies that will win in manufacturing aren't the ones collecting the most data. They're the ones that have figured out which data is worth generating, and built the organizational discipline to generate it effectively.
A Technical Guide to Custom Versus Standard Servo Drives
In this white paper, we'll identify some scenarios and use cases where customization delivers meaningful value — helping you determine when standard drives suffice and when custom solutions justify the investment.
Bringing on robots without breaking the bank

Leasing robotic equipment can be a great option. With leasing, companies can deploy the latest equipment without a major cash outlay. They can have the newest technology without being stuck down the road with a tool they can't use.
Avatar Robotics Raises $6.5 Million Seed to Build the Unlimited Industrial Workforce
Since launching in December 2025, Avatar Robotics has packed, sorted, and helped ship more than 900,000 products, including for a leading global beauty retailer, via robots deployed across live customer environments.
Analog Input vs Digital Input: What's the Difference?
From a robotic arm delicately gripping an object to a conveyor system detecting product presence, every action begins with input signals. These signals translate physical conditions-such as position, force, temperature, or presence - into data a machine can process.
ResinDek® Flooring Supports Complex Platform Build in Middle-Mile Parcel Sortation Center
In total, the project included approximately 165,000 square feet of elevated platform structure and more than 21,000 square feet of grid structure supporting conveyor systems throughout the facility.
3D Potter Improves SCARA Robot Load Handling with Teknic ClearPath Servos
In these systems, the motion requirements are especially challenging because the payload is not fixed. As the arm extends, rotates, and dispenses material, the mechanical leverage changes continuously.
The Cost of System Rigidity: How Legacy Automation Falters While Adaptive Robots Excel
.jpg)
Adaptive robotics give the flexibility to respond quickly to production requirements while improving productivity and long-term ROI. Although legacy automation remains effective for some repetitive applications, its limited adaptability restricts operational agility.
How many chips does it take to build a humanoid robot?
Ultimately, a differentiated understanding of chip requirements across robot form factors, and a grasp of the migration pace of value from ‘execution' to ‘intelligence,' will be central to strategic positioning in the years ahead.
The Motor as a Sensor
maxon MIND was developed to take condition monitoring and predictive maintenance to a new level. The solution analyzes data read from the controller during machine operation and detects patterns that indicate wear or malfunctions.
