When to Choose a 4pole DC Motor
A 4pole design is stronger than a 2pole equivalent but can also fit within the same space and weight envelope. Greg Dutfield of maxon UK explains.
What Are Fresnel Lenses Used For?
In recent years, Fresnel Lenses, and their unique characteristics, have been recognised and tapped into by a different sector - the virtual reality (VR) industry.
Mapping the Stars, Galaxies and Black Holes in the Universe, Thanks to Precision of Faulhaber Motors & Systems
Their force is transferred to the robot mechanics by means of suitable planetary gearheads. The robot mechanics used here were developed and constructed by MPS. Integrated encoders report the rotary position of the motors to the controller.
MiniMACS6 Stabilizes the Furuta Pendulum
A classic problem in engineering is the rotational inverted pendulum. It is used to demonstrate and examine movement patterns and control algorithms in control and electrical engineering as well as in mechanical engineering. These help to control robots and other machines.
3 Benefits of Working With a Robotic Integrator
Because there is more to automation than selecting a robot, working with a robot or system integrator can be extremely valuable to ensure the full robotic system is properly designed to achieve the desired results.
Improving Uptime and Safety with Autonomous Mobile Robots
Mauser Packaging Solutions (Mauser) is a global packaging leader with over 180 facilities worldwide. Their team needed a solution for their 24/7 production schedule, which their existing AGV system couldn't meet.
New Ideas, Collaboration Help Brenton Drive Four Major Product Handling Upgrades to KW Container
This cell included four robots picking lids and packing them into one of four SKUs. This cell, encapsulated in a small footprint, also included an auto adjustable case sealer to accommodate the four different SKU boxes, a palletizer and stretch wrapper.
Metaverse Companies: The World of the Virtually Limitless Possibilities
Here, Knight Optical - the leading supplier of metrology-tested, high-precision optical components - investigates the fascinating metaverse and explores some of the most recent advances.
General Purpose Programming Languages Are the Future for the Industrial Automation Industry and Are Overtaking Traditional PLC IEC 61131-3
IEC 61131-3 is the de facto standard in the industrial automation industry. It encompasses 5 different programming "languages". It makes designing simple programs straightforward and easy, and it does this very well.
Subsea Technologies: Optical Components in Deep Waters
Here, Knight Optical dives into the world of subsea technologies and runs through the optical components that are used to guarantee their high performance.
Tazza! A 3D-Based Robot Pick-and-Place Vision System
The vision system performs three key tasks: scanning in 3D the raw white vessels; analyzing the 3D scans to establish the vessels' size, shape, position; and communicating the results to the cobot so it can accurately reach the teacups as they move along the production line.
How to Choose the Right Sensor in Ambient Conditions
One of the key considerations while choosing the perfect set of sensors for your robotic designs include their resistance to ambient situations such as temperature, lights, interferences and obstructions.
Automatic Forest Fire Detection System With AI Enables Early and Efficient Fire Fighting
Instead of elaborately programming a solution, neural networks and deep learning algorithms teach an image processing system to see, recognize and verify objects - in this case smoke.
Revolution for Bionic Prostheses
Revival Bionics was looking for the best performing materials. The quality of the products and the know-how of the teams convinced the start-up to rely on maxon for the propulsion. A look back at a successful collaboration.
Most Accurate Lotus Car Ever, Thanks to Cutting Edge Metrology
The CMM installed in Hethel is set one meter into the floor on a special foundation. It means that a car for inspection carried on an automated guided vehicle (AGV) is able to access the area without the need for any lifting equipment.
