Running on fumes? AI isn't possible without proper data management

Board members and C-suite executives are asking when AI pilot projects can begin, with a preference for a start date of yesterday. Meanwhile, the plant floor reality is nowhere near ready for AI.

Implementing the Most Efficient Picking Paths to Meet Crucial KPIs

In today's demanding market, efficiency of operations is an essential factor to remaining competitive. One area where there are often substantial opportunities for improvement is your warehouse pick paths.

Automatic Loading and Unloading of Pressed Parts Through 3D Container Inspection

The actual workflow that FrameSense is designed to automate is part of many manufacturing operations. A component comes out of a machine - here a press - and runs on a conveyor belt to a container.

Warehouses may be the first industry to adopt humanoid robot workers

With the news that Amazon is testing a humanoid robot - Agility Robotics' Digit - in its warehouses, we explore what the future looks like for bipedal robots in logistics.

CoaXPress over Fiber

Fiber optics transmit data as pulses of light through strands of fiber made of glass or plastic. When bundled with hundreds of other strands, the resulting fiber optic cable will transmit more data at faster speeds and over longer distances than high-grade copper cables.

Omron Introduces the SWIR Camera Series Enabling Precision Inspection Across the Manufacturing Process Using Short Wave Infrared Technology

Key Factors for Ball Screw Applications

In recent years, the need for a mini ball screws has become more evident through conversations with our customers and feedback from the marketplace. Specifically, the rising demand is for high-quality ball screws that are made in the U.S and available from stock.

SCARA Robot Sorts Recyclables Using a Simple Conveyor Speed Feedback System

As Everest Labs was developing their system to be sold to recycling centers worldwide, they found that their robot needed speed feedback in order to track the recyclables on the conveyor, and therefore needed a simple way to install conveyor speed feedback on a gear motor.

HARDWARE AS A SERVICE: A NEW PARADIGM FOR SERVICE CONTRACTS

A flexible revenue approach is a defining feature of HaaS, offering organisations a 'pay-as-you-go' model instead of the traditional CapEx hardware purchasing model. This offers manufacturing organisations, regardless of their size, several advantages.

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
