Robotics and Automation White Papers

Current advancements in robotics are shrinking the design-to-deployment cycle from years to months, and 5G alone is enabling a host of new capabilities. Read about AI, ML, cloud computing, and how they all enable a new intelligent edge device.

Let’s listen to Arvind Krishnan, industry analyst at Lifecycle Insights and Michael Mayr, Industrial Equipment Sales Strategy Expert at Dassault Systèmes. They will discuss the robot industry and how startups can succeed in this market.

Learn how Harmonic Drive® can help you improve productivity with our wide variety of lightweight gears and new line of integrated actuators. Our new integrated actuators, some of which are offered with a dual absolute encoder feature, are extremely compact and eliminate the need for an external servo drive. They are ideal for use in robotics where precision, weight and reliability are essential. All Harmonic Drive® actuators feature zero backlash, high accuracy, fast response times and are available in a wide range of sizes.

Learn how manufacturers are reducing costs and ensuring product quality with new app-based technologies that that make human decisions consistent, reliable and trackable

Catalogs and Whitepapers organized by manufacturer. Automation Companies such Advanced Motion Control, Electrocraft, Kollmorgen, Thomson Linear and Tolomatic.

Finite-element modelling (FEM) is a well-established means for system analysis and optimization that can substantially reduce product development time and costs. With this modelling tool the domain of interest is split up in small elements over each of which the fundamental physics equations are solved. For a company involved in magnetics such as Goudsmit Magnetic Systems it is important tool because of the ability of relatively accurately predicting the performance of its electro-magnetic systems. In this paper the FEM method, as currently applied at Goudsmit, is outlined in more detail and a variety of applications of this method are discussed, as encountered at Goudsmit.

Are you prepared to meet the ever-growing demand? Can your warehouse be optimized without adding to your footprint or your labor costs? The answer is yes. A recent white paper created by Plus One Robotics with partner Interact Analysis explores the implications of surging demand, dropping availability of labor, and the ROI of automating the right way (via true human-robot collaboration).

To learn more about how advances in technology are finally enabling cost-effective automation for DCs of any size, download the white paper “Breakthrough Robotics: Empowering Distribution Centers”.

The pandemic meant warehouses had to cope with social distancing and staff absences. It also caused a massive e-commerce boost and has led to a protracted labor shortage. All this has forced warehouse managers to take a deeper look at the possibilities offered by warehouse automation and to accelerate any existing plans they had to automate. In this report, we look into new solutions and real-world cases which are the reasons why AMRs should be one of your choices in your decision.
