Purpose-Built, Specialized Robots are the Future
Wheeled robots like ours are more efficient for the same reason cycling is more efficient than running, which includes less of a fight with gravity. The efficiency, as well as the sheer complexity of humanoid robots adds up to something that may be very much higher cost.
How to Integrate New Robotics Without Disrupting Your Workflow
Many fulfillment and 3PL facilities struggle with the idea of automation, fearing downtime, technical headaches, and compatibility issues. But what if robotics could smoothly enhance your workflow instead of disrupting it?
Mobile manipulators: Flexibility through mobility
Mobile robots are now a key element in various factories, responsible for transporting raw materials, moving items between work stations, and delivering finished goods to storage or dispatch areas. These adaptable platforms can carry tools, components, and entire assemblies.
The Future of Work: How Humanoid Robots Will Revolutionize Industries
Advanced humanoid robots are not destined to replace human workers entirely. Instead, they are poised to revolutionize industries by complementing human skills and addressing critical labor shortages in hazardous environments.
Wearable Robotics and Exoskeleton Technology
Through onboard intelligence and cloud connectivity, Exia delivers personalized support, injury prevention, and ergonomic optimization - essentially becoming a smart, adaptive partner for physical work.
10 things to consider when exploring Offline Robot Programming software solutions
Offline Robot Programming (OLP) takes the programming "offline" - away from the teach pendent / robot cell - allowing the user to generate the robotic code from their computer without having to take the robot out of production to generate it.
Methods for Empty Carton Induction in Pick Modules
The method you choose for delivering empty cartons can significantly impact productivity and operational efficiency. Here, we explore three common methods for empty carton induction to Pick Modules, highlighting the benefits of using an overhead conveyor system.
The Human + Robot Workforce: How Collaborative Robotics Are Solving the Labor Crisis
Collaborative robotics like person-to-goods or 'pick assist' AMRs are intelligently designed to work with people, not replace them. Adoption of AMRs for automated order fulfillment is turning this challenge into a competitive advantage.
Inspection of critical infrastructure using intelligent drones
A research group at the University of Klagenfurt has designed a real-time capable drone based on object-relative navigation using artificial intelligence. Also on board: a USB3 Vision industrial camera from the uEye LE family from IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH.
Upgrade Your Mezzanine Flooring While Avoiding Timely and Costly Replacement
Mezzanine floors are important in many facilities. They provide extra space for storage or work without taking up more ground space. However, they often face heavy use from equipment and people. Over time, this can cause the floor to wear down.
Robot-Based Shelf Monitoring Cameras for Retail Operation Efficiency
Robot-based shelf monitoring systems integrate camera systems with autonomous robotics. It helps ensure seamless inventory tracking, planogram compliance, and shelf organization. Discover how these camera-based systems work and their must-have imaging features.
Hybrid AMRs are a Game-Changer
They can operate seamlessly in unstructured environments and adapt to changing floor conditions. At particular points where highest precision is required, we revert to a QR code location.
How Autonomous AI Tackles Quality Control Costs
Quality is often viewed as a direct driver of customer satisfaction and operational efficiency in manufacturing. Yet some organizations fail to recognize the hidden costs of quality issues, significantly impacting the bottom line.
Battery inspection using machine vision - fast, reliable, and variable
Averna has developed a procedure for automating battery inspection for one of its customers. The fact that potential errors are extremely varied increases the complexity of the inspection process.
How to Achieve the Full Benefits of a Warehouse Digital Twin
A warehouse digital twin needs more than a highly capable WMS, it also needs a reliable technology to capture all the necessary inventory data, and this is where computer vision plays a pivotal role.
