World's First Window Cleaning Robot Reports to New York City Skyscraper Transforming the Industry Globally
Ozmo's arrival ushers in a new era for the $40B window-cleaning industry, offering a solution to a global shortage of manual window cleaners that will create new jobs and, when fully autonomous, keep humans out of harm's way with advanced technology.
AI Robots : Transforming Industries with Smart Robotic Solutions
The demand for AI robots is driven by the need for automation and efficient data management across various industries. In manufacturing, AI robots are used to automate complex assembly lines, reducing labor costs and increasing productivity.
If You're Struggling With Production Inefficiencies, Cobots Might Help
A collaborative approach to automation offers solutions where older methods have fallen short. Manufacturers who have struggled to achieve desired results from conventional robotics should consider how cobots can help them strike an ideal balance.
The future of manufacturing: How cobots can combine with robot offline programming and 3D simulation
Cobots need effective programming to fulfil their capabilities on the factory floor. Without it, manufacturers face a scenario where they can't deploy them in the most pressing areas.
How Small Manufacturers are Building a Business Case for Robotics
Smaller manufacturers are the fastest-growing area of industrial robotics today, driven by the need for new collaborative robotics systems.
Why Letting the Machines Do the Tending Will Open the Door to the Next Industrial Revolution
As anyone in the know can tell you, machine tending is incredibly important to the manufacturing process. A well-functioning manufacturing workflow relies on machinery consistently being loaded and unloaded with parts or materials.
Utilizing Cobots to Manage Labor Shortages
By replacing manual CNC processes with the RB series cobots, the company has increased productivity by 40 to 50 percent. This has enabled the company to respond more effectively to client demands, which have increased two to three times since the recent semiconductor boom.
Maximizing the Value of Collaborative Robots
As we will discuss in this article, cobots can add tremendous value to your operations, but you should be sure to pay attention to risk assessments and safeguarding requirements.
World's most remote robot automates Amazon reforestation project
Pilot project between ABB Robotics and non-profit organization Junglekeepers demonstrates potential of robotics and Cloud technology in reversing deforestation. Using solar power, YuMi® automates seed planting, making reforestation in the Amazon faster and more efficient.
Welcome to the Age of the Cobot
Collaborative robots can bring significant benefits through closer interactions with humans - but they need high-quality parts replacement to ensure safety and productivity
Machine Shop Robots Get Real
To better understand the benefits of cobot automation and how it works on the shop floor, we spoke to two leading providers of automated tools to small shops targeting two of the most time consuming and difficult to staff processes, quality control and welding.
