Automation is revolutionizing virtually every industry today, including cold chain warehousing. Warehousing companies can get a valuable edge over their competitors by implementing smart automation strategies.
100,000 Mobile Robots Shipped In 2021
It is regularly claimed that robots will steal jobs from people. But in the post-COVID world we are seeing the opposite: robots are filling gaps left by widespread labor shortages. This is particularly the case in e-commerce warehouses.
Picked Up and Put Off
Pallets loaded with industrial yarn spools are picked up from the floor of a predefined storage place and transported to the creel location. There, the gripper positions itself vertically above the pallet.
Kawasaki J series Robot Runs for More Than 20 Years
During its lifetime, this robot ran for 38,390 hours; the equivalent of a 20 years worth of 8 hour shifts. It only logged 57 maintenance entries, and showed flexibility by working on two different welding lines.
Fuzzy Logic Makes Robotics Agile at MBDA
The company wanted to robotise certain processes in small series or even single unit production, by allowing an operator with no programming skills to teach the robotic system, in just a few seconds.
FORD NOW OPERATES 3D PRINTERS AUTONOMOUSLY, INCREASING EFFICIENCY AND REDUCING COST
Autonomous process enables 3D printer to run continuously with no human interaction needed, increasing throughput and reducing cost of custom-printed products
ABB predicts key trends that will change robotic automation in 2022
Post-pandemic acceleration continues for robots in new sectors like logistics and retail, and speeds up for EV production. Adoption of robots driving demand for new skills that require education and training.
Vimaan CEO Reflects on Coming Out of Stealth
A business model that was originally envisioned as a hardware sale has morphed into a Data-As-A-Service subscription model that unburdens the customer from capital expenditures, infrastructure changes, hardware maintenance or operation of complex systems.
The Benefits of Investing in Warehouse Automation
When it comes to warehouse management, there's a lot to consider. Overhead costs, employee efficiency, order fulfillment are just some of the many daily operations involved in warehousing today. However, there are ways to streamline these processes for greater productivity.

Industrial Robotics - Featured Product
Denso Robotics - Newest 6-axis VMB Series offers longer arm reach and higher load capacity
The new VMB series represent some of the newest members to our 6-axis family of robots. These high-performance, versatile units offer a longer arm reach and a higher load capacity than traditional models which make VMB an excellent solution for palletizing, packaging, and material handling. New features include greater air piping, valve and signal line options, as well as new programming options with state-of-the-art functions using our new WINCAPS Plus software. VMB offers an IP67 protection grade along with meeting ISO Class 5, which makes them suitable for electric parts, food manufacturing processes, and pharmaceutical and medical devices. With the addition of the new VMB large robots, all manufacturing processes can now be automated by DENSO Robotics.
