Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR), the global market leader in autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), today launched its most powerful robots for transporting pallets and other heavy items around manufacturing facilities, warehouses and logistics centers.
Picking and packing go hand in hand at FachPack 2021. At the Schmalz booth 4-245 in Hall 4, a lot will therefore revolve around manual handling: The JumboFlex will be mobile, can weigh and will be equipped with a new special gripper.
There are many reasons companies in the food and beverage industry choose collaborative robots when they increase the level of automation in their operations. Here are three factors for you to think about when considering automation in your own facility.
Production, warehouse, shipping – where goods are produced, stored, sorted or packed, picking also takes place. This means that several individual goods are removed from storage units such as boxes or cartons and reassembled.
There re quite a few repetitive tasks in manufacturing. If all of these tasks must be performed manually, then a large number of a manufacturing company’s employees would be occupied with extremely mundane and tedious activities throughout the day.
Universal Robots (UR) is launching an enhanced UR10e with an increased payload of 12.5kg (27.55lbs), creating new possibilities for applications such as palletizing, machine tending, and packaging. The robot’s price remains unchanged.
Start production faster with a new all-in-one Palletizing Solution from Robotiq. This webinar will be hosted by the Shelley Automation and Robotiq teams, and will include a live demo and Q&A session.
Festo aims to establish artificial intelligence (AI) as a key technology and core competence and to use it consistently for its customers’ automation solutions. To this end, Festo offers intelligent solutions and services, with a focus on Predictive Maintenance, Predictive Quality and Predictive Energy.
OnRobot has launched the MG10, a versatile, high-performance, easy to use magnetic gripper for material handling, assembly and machine tending applications in manufacturing, automotive and aerospace environments.
OTTO Motors, a provider of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) for material handling, recently announced that it has launched the next generation of its market-leading heavy-class AMR.
In the logistics industry, it’s always a race to be the fastest company to get deliveries out the door while also maintaining a standard of impeccable accuracy at the lowest possibl cost.
Developed with stacking or palletizing of heavy loads in mind, Festo’s new EHMH is a muscular cantilever axis with rack and pinion technology that handles payloads up to 200 kg with great repeatability.
In the popular imagination, robots are large, dumb machines for doing dull, muscular, repetitive tasks with precision and accuracy. That’s only part of today’s robotics world. Robots now come in many sizes and configurations, with two to seven axes.
Offering exceptionally fast and powerful operation for increased production throughput, the highly reliable four-axis PL190 and PL320 models now join the PL500 robot, enabling a wide range of palletizing applications, order picking and other logistical tasks.
In 2020, Universal Robots hosted two groundbreaking virtual trade shows geared to a broad range of manufacturers and industries. This year, they are excited to launch The Cobot Expo Series ’21 – five virtual events that focus on the industries and applications most relevant for collaborative robots during these challenging manufacturing times.
Large, unwieldy bags of dog food, non-airtight clothing or consumer goods packages, and bulky, porous cardboard boxes. These are just some examples of demanding packaging and palletizing applications that OnRobot’s new VGP20 gripper can address.
