Robotics In Manufacturing: Threat or Opportunity?
The use of robotics in manufacturing has grown consistently over the past decade. A recent report from the Association for Advancing Automation revealed that North America saw a record in robot sales in 2022, with the number of robots ordered up 11% from the previous year.
Automated Support Removal & Finishing for Metal AM - Robots vs CNC
This article will address the transition to automated support removal (and finishing) solutions and consider the advantages and disadvantages of using CNC systems versus the versatility and reliability of robots.
AI and the Chocolate Factory
Reinforcement learning is an approach adopted from artificial intelligence (AI) that mathematically replicates natural learning. The chocolate factory is an example of how application-specific optimised controls can be developed much faster in this way.
12 Ways Companies Are Automating Workflows With Mobile Robots
AMRs can pick up waste (scrap material, packaging, manufacturing by-products) from various points throughout the facility and automatically take it to the nearest waste disposal zone.
Understanding the Role of Machine Vision in Industry 4.0
Today it is being applied to diverse areas such as monitoring processes for predictive maintenance, and robotic guidance that makes it possible for robots to safely work with and respond to human interactions.
AMRs in Fleet Operation and Test Deployment
Manufacturing companies are turning to AMR support in increasing numbers, not just on a small scale, but the interest in entire AMR fleets is gaining significant traction.
