…Siemens Standard Robot Command Interface (SRCI) partners include ABB, Comau, Epson, FANUC, KAKA, Kawasaki, KUKA, Mitsubishi Electric, Stäubli, UR and Yaskawa. Source: Siemens The collaboration will enable Siemens programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that support the Standard Robot Command Interface (SRCI) functions to translate and merge control instructions through its Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal). This arrangement will enable engineers to use Siemens’ development environment to control robots without using robot programming languages. Prior to this announcement, Siemens was already working in cooperation with Comau, Stäubli, Kawasaki, and Yaskawa Motoman on integrated robot control via SRCI. Mou reported ABB, KUKA,…

…an example. Requiring greater upfront investment in robots from Comau, the flexibility of the plant can repurpose and redirect equipment to suit amended product specifications and volumes. Tesla founder Elon Musk has made no secret of his ambitions for general-purpose robots that would be even more capable. Flexible manufacturing to pick up speed The time required to change robot programming has delayed the acceptance of flexible manufacturing. Once, automating a one-hour task could require more than 15 hours of programming. A more recent move to self-programming has simplified the process through abstraction using AI and machine learning. There is also…
