Important Considerations When Implementing AMR Solutions
When implementing mobile robotics solutions in a facility, it's important to consider strategies for ensuring stability, seamless interaction with people, accurate detection of obstacles, and set up a successful emergency evacuation plan.
Blazing the Trail for Flying Robots
As part of a focus project at ETH Zurich, eight Bachelor students built a flying manipulator that can hover in any orientation and grasp objects. The drone is more maneuverable than a quadrocopter and has been designed with the aim of pushing aerial robotics to new heights.
Is your OLRP Implementation Process SMART?
For any Offline Robot Programming solution to be effective, the virtual robot cell set up in the software must be identical to the existing physical robot cell. OCTOPUZ refers to this process as "implementation".
Digital Transformation and the Smart Factory
The Smart Factory at Wichita (TSF@W) provides a risk-free environment for companies to explore the art of the possible and gain insight into the latest technologies through an immersive, hands-on experience.
Robust Drive System Simplifies Mobile Robot Development for the Factory of the Future
Another issue is the inability of some AGVs and AMRs to drive smoothly while operating slowly, an important consideration for scenarios where the AGV or AMR itself may perform part or component assembly.
Understanding Human-machine Interfaces (HMIS)
An HMI could be used to replace physical inputs (such as buttons or switches) with virtual buttons on a user interface (UI). This can offer greater functionality and flexibility than a fixed control panel.
The Latest Evolution of High-Performance Laser-Guided Vehicles Streamlines Pallet Movement in Deep-Freeze Warehouses
Technology advances in automated deep-freeze distribution have provided advantages for increased throughput, system uptime and a better ROI. Laser-guided vehicles, playing a pivotal role in this sub-zero technological evolution, have recently taken a quantum leap forward.
Reliable Quality Inspection of Plastics With Autonomous Machine Vision
Autonomous Machine Vision (AMV) is a new approach to quality assurance, designed to be more than automatic, but autonomous, from determining the ideal number of samples the system needs to learn the characteristics of an item.
10 Factors Warehouse Managers Should Consider for Goods-to-Person Fulfilment
In this article, let's dive deeper into how it works and what factors you should consider if you are thinking to switch to using the Goods-to-Person fulfillment model.
Robotics Designed for Harsh Environments
In the following article we will discuss how one company employs creative design techniques and online configuration tools to provide customized motors and gearheads for their latest robotic arm and gripper - able to fit into a wide variety of applications.
Why Use Offline Robot Programming Software and How to Get Started
If you have added manufacturing robots to your facility, you are already aware of the advantages they provide and the ROI. Robots do have a downside, however, when it comes to programming-most of the time, they must be offline to be updated or programmed.
Parcel: A Lower-Cost Way To Automate Last-Mile Delivery Hubs
Solving the challenge of the last mile using traditional methods, like human teams and traditional automation systems, can require a massive upfront investment of capital and time - and often isn't enough to gain an edge in an already cutthroat market.
Could Cobots Be the Answer to the Welder Shortage?
The American Welding Society has predicted a deficit of 400,000 welders by 2024. According to specialist welding technologists K-TIG, a US welder's skills are in such high demand they can demand a salary of $100,000.
Robot Control: Using Native Programming Language or an External Controller?
In service robotics as well as in academia, flexibly designable, use-case specific controllers are used, resulting in the respective robots to mainly act as actuators with low-level control systems but without individual intelligence.
Standards, Guidelines & Industry Best Practices for Industrial & Collaborative Robots
The robotics industry is undergoing a significant transformation. There is a need to learn from the past, as multiple times, robots failed to behave as expected because of mechanical failure, power disruption, software issues, and environmental factors.
