How Robotics Can Offset Trade Cost Hikes
To offset the rising cost of metals and avoid hurting their bottom lines, many shops are turning to robotics for repetitive-based processes to help optimize their workforce productivity through precision and consistency.
Embracing the Robotic Revolution
U.S. manufacturers cannot ignore the growing implications of failing to adopt modern robotics and automated technologies. Rather than fearing the rise of the robot, Americans must further embrace the technology or risk getting left behind in the global manufacturing race.
United Grinding Names Ellison Technologies as Distributor
Ellison will be their exclusive sales and service source for grinding systems in Texas and Louisiana.
Fast and Easy Robot Cell Configuration and Deployment
Application Builder from Universal Robots walks users through the entire process of building a successful machine tending, assembly or packaging application with step-by-step guidance on end effectors, programming, machine interfaces and more that is optimized for throughput and cost.
Integrated Robotic Automation of Machine Tools and Assembly
For machine shops that need multi-spindle, high precision machining centers, SW North America can also integrate automated robot cells, assembly systems and turnkey production systems for increased productivity.
Tool Room Cobot
The Cora cobot from Zoller improves tool room economics by automatically picking, assembling, adjusting, clamping, measuring, cleaning, marking and labeling tools in full support of all standard tasks for tool preparation.
Intuitive Cobot Automates Repetitive Tasks
The advanced TM Series Collaborative Robot from Omron boosts production and reduces employee fatigue by safely automating most repetitive production tasks, such as machine tending, loading and unloading, assembly, screw driving, gluing, testing or soldering.
Automation Apps Increase Reliability in Smart Factory Production
Individually configurable software application packages from Liebherr can increase the control and reliability of robotic production in an Industry 4.0 operating environment.
Robot Automation of High-Mix/Low Volume Part Production
To automate the high-mix/low volume operations needed by job shops to compete effectively, Hurco uses fully automated robot systems coordinated by a centralized job management system to connect CNC machining centers with collaborative robots, multi-axis serial robots and pallet systems.
Smart Robotic Part Sorting and Arranging Made Easy
SmartWing robots from Fuji make workpiece sorting, accurate long screw placing, loose part sorting and arranging, and dual robot cooperation for inserting and tightening screws remarkably easy and efficient with accessible automation that virtually eliminates teaching.
Flexible Robotic Precision Finishing Systems
Robotic finishing systems from Fastems eliminate variations that are common in hand-finishing operations, maximize the output of consistently precise parts, and relieve employees of tedious and tiring hand finishing activities.
