Trends in Industrial Robotics to Watch in 2024

This article aims to dissect the trends within the four major categories of industrial robotics: SCARA robots, collaborative robots (cobots), gantry robots, and articulated robots.

Building Customers' Trust With Robots - Advanced 3D Vision Systems Improve Food Traceability

Food traceability is not just a matter of compliance, it's also essential for maintaining customer trust and brand reputation.

Unveiling the Unlikely: Surprising Sectors Transformed by Robotic Innovations

While it's second nature to associate autonomous systems with typical users like automobile manufacturing and electronics, there exist less obvious industries where they've found an unpredicted home.

200 Times Faster Subsea Inspection

Precise motion control is helping a new subsea inspection device achieve highly accurate inspection with the fastest-yet speeds of data collection.

TinyML: What is It and Why Does It Matter

As a machine learning technique, TinyML combines reduced and optimized machine learning applications that require hardware, system, and software components. These operate at the edge of the cloud in real time while converting data with minimal energy and cost.

Enhancing Production Efficiency Through Intelligent Transfer Systems

A smooth production process is critical for a company's success. The constantly growing demands of the market and increasing cost pressure require innovative solutions to optimize production. This is where transfer systems come into play.

Machine Functional Safety - PL and SIL Ratings

This paper reviews the concept of Functional Safety as it relates to machinery. The design steps for a safe machine are outlined and the methodology for determining appropriate PL/SIL safety ratings discussed.

3D Image Processing Solution With 2D Cameras, AI and Robotics Optimizes the Manufacturing Landscape

The easy-to-integrate system consists of a module for robot arms, a computing unit with pre-installed intelligent software and a camera module, each equipped in series with two uEye+ XCP cameras from IDS.

AGV and AMR Are Becoming More Complex

To enable the industry to keep pace with trends through quick and cost-efficient development, Markus Fenn and Prof. Dr. Stefan May developed Eduard, a teaching and prototyping platform that can be used to map current trends.

What Are The Differences Between Safe LiDAR and LiDAR?

One of the key elements to consider when selecting LiDAR technology is whether you need safe LiDAR or LiDAR. But what makes LiDAR safe? And when do you need a safety-rated device? Well, look no further, we've got the answers for you right here!

Why Industrial Robotics is Experiencing Steady Growth

The World Robotics 2021 Industrial Robots report shows a record of 3 million industrial robots operating worldwide - an impressive 10% increase from the previous year.

Synchronized Mobile Robot Fleets Bring New Versatility and Investment Protection to Assembly Operations

A trend toward replacing those fixed, conveyor-based assembly lines with fleets of mobile robots holds the promise of another step change in manufacturing efficiency and new adaptability to market volatility.

What's Holding Back Robot Adoption? - With the UK Lagging Behind Its Competitors, What Needs to Change?

While it's hoped that figures will have changed since the IFR's previous report, the gap between the UK and other countries shows there's still a clear need to drive up robotic adoption.

What are Resolution, Accuracy & Repeatability

Understanding resolution, accuracy and repeatability is critical to specifying a position sensor. This paper defines these terms and discusses how they relate to overall system performance.

Laser-Guided Vehicles: Supporting Sustainability in Manufacturing and Distribution

Compared to conventional lift trucks, LGVs provide more consistent throughput of pallets between manufacturing and distribution functions, less damage to racking, raw materials and merchandise, reduced labor requirements, and lower cost of operation.
