Robotics Insights. Robots can help fill some, but not all, of the labor gap manufacturers currently face. The challenge is getting manufacturers to buy into the concept because they believe robots are too expensive and will take jobs when the opposite is true. Three myths about robots, automation.

The integration of AI into autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) provides room to maneuver when it comes to transporting components and products between the different stages of production. Earlier this year, ABB’s (Ann Arbor, MI) Marc Segura, who is president of the ABB Robotics Division, commented on the new frontiers for robotics and AI in 2024.

Applied Manufacturing Technologies (AMT) worked with Gojo Industries to create robotic cells: a de-tray and layer forming system. Designing the de-tray and layer forming robotic cells allowed several the engineering team to solve robot speed issues and meet cycle time requirements. Project summary.

There’s no need for clock synchronous application operation, because it’s a very simple application.The cycle times, ver roughly, are tens of millisecond. This also is not synchronized via a clock because it’s single axis and maybe not required, but the cycle times are a little more stringent.
