Unilever Konya HPC Factory Case Study
With four different material types needing to be transported twenty-four hours nonstop for over 100 distribution points, it was a complex issue requiring a sophisticated solution
HEIDENHAIN In Action at OMIC
Exciting manufacturing research is happening daily at OMIC R&D (Oregon Manufacturing Innovation Center - Research & Development) and many types of HEIDENHAIN precision measurement components are working inside.
The dm Drugstore Distribution Center Relies on Piab Suction Cups
An average of 3,500 pallets are delivered and picked there every day. A large part of the pallets is depalletized with Piab's DURAFLEX® suction cups BX52P and fed into the order picking chain.
Optimize Space with Conveyor Elevations and Line Egress Solutions
Modern manufacturing requires facilities to maximize efficiency and ensure product quality. However, space limitations can impede these goals. Integrating elevations and line egress solutions will grant your facility the flexibility it needs to succeed.
A Fantastic Feeling - Lightweight Exoskeleton
Zurich-based startup MyoSwiss has developed a lightweight exoskeleton that works like an e-bike for the legs. It assists the wearer's movements with electronic reinforcement.
Using Technology to Combat the Skilled Labor Shortage
Successful manufacturing companies are combatting the skilled labor shortage by investing in automation and software to complement their existing workforce, meet production requirements, and attract new talent.
Wireless Charging Technology for Autonomous Robotics
Downtime is particularly costly in an operation that relies on carefully coordinated logistics, so optimizing charging times and speeds based on operational needs is very advantageous.
Converting Passenger Aircraft to Freight Aircraft - the Zimmer Group Is on Board!
For the aircraft conversion, Zimmer Group supplied an air-cooled spindle including EtherCAT operator terminal and frequency converter.
Robotic Dog Can Carry Out Inspections Autonomously
Remote offshore installations, dusty mines, dirty sewers: environments made by people for people. Yet operating them is dangerous. The solution? The robotic dog from ANYbotics, which can carry out inspections autonomously.
How to Choose a Mobile Robot
Can you be assured that each AMR in your fleet will position itself consistently to reliably pick up or deliver goods from your conveyor systems, exchange a pallet, or perform any number of automation tasks?
Frontmatec Food Handling with Stainless Steel ATI Tool Changers
Robots are better suited to the harsh temperatures and repetitive work than humans are, and with the right programming and end-of-arm-tools, they can provide more repeatable results.
Robot Solution for Automating the Lettuce Harvest
The lettuce's outer, or 'wrapper', leaves will be mechanically removed to expose the stem. Machine vision and artificial intelligence are then used to identify a precise cut point on the stem to neatly separate the head of lettuce.
Private 5G Connectivity and AI Technologies Accelerate the Transformation From Automation to Autonomy
This article looks at private 5G (known as P5G) and how it supports advanced and emerging technologies, including AI cameras, enabling manufacturers to drive more functionality closer to the edge.
Autonomous Navigation - With Millimeter Precision
In the age of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Industry 4.0, intralogistics plays an increasingly important role. The precise transport of goods and materials will become a key factor in efficient production.
AGV Selection Process for 2022 Must Start with Delivery Commitment Guarantee
Throughout industrial manufacturing, distribution, and logistics the lead time from many AGV manufacturers is more than a year. That means product ordered in Q1 2022 will not be delivered until the following year.

Featured Product
The piCOBOT Electric vacuum generator
Fully electric, slim design and absence of air-tubing and cabling. The new piCOBOT® Electric heads towards another success for Piab's piCOBOT® program. A secondary effect of these achievements is the absence of entangling air tubing and cabling. It simplifies the installation, and as the new piCOBOT® Electric only needs a single connection on the cobot arm, the clean set-up allows a completely unrestricted movement. The new piCOBOT® Electric package will contain plug & play software to fit UR e-series cobots, but many other useful adaptations will be introduced in the coming year
