A growing number of peripheral technologies are being made to compliment industrial and collaborative robots – such as Yaskawa’s Smart Series line of robots – that are specifically designed to dramatically simplify robot programming. Read More

A growing number of manufacturers are implementing collaborative welding robots. A style of flexible automation that can be easily deployed or redeployed on demand, collaborative welding offers some attractive benefits to manufacturers. Read More

A key benefit of easy-to-use and quick to deploy collaborative robots (cobots), like Yaskawa’s Smart Series, is having an off-the-shelf ecosystem of end-of-arm tools and accessories. From grippers to sensors, and vision systems to tool changers, there are a variety of robotic tools to facilitate successful collaborative applications. Read More

Depending on your industry, location and unique circumstances, many of us are facing a new and different type of reality. I’ve compiled a list with some of the types of challenges that manufacturers, distributors, and even clinicians may currently be experiencing: Read More

If you’ve recently thought about purchasing a robot to optimize production, then you may have questioned whether a human-collaborative robot (cobot) is right for your application. While a proper risk assessment and following ISO standards should lead the way in the decision-making process, here are some other aspects to consider. Read More
