…the key benefits of Mujin's random bin picking application Ease of use: no-code programming makes it easy for anyone to operate a robot, even without prior programming experience. Capability: can pick and place parts from any orientation and location in bins just by registering their CAD models. Speed: faster than traditional systems because it is powered by Mujin’s best-in-class, real-time motion planning technologies that optimize the robot motion and IO commands. No collision: utilizes the world's only general-purpose robot controller with advanced integrated control, which considers the surrounding environment. “The future of robotics will be powered by intelligent robot controllers…

…was most appealing for our application due to its ease of use, including mapping features and web-based interface; its flexibility, the available hook accessory and small footprint; and its safety features, which include cameras, sensors and sounds. Another plus was the simplicity of its design (that is, use of standard components) that makes it easy to maintain.” MiR will be participating in the Autonomous Mobile Robot Conference on September 17 in Louisville, Ky. Sponsored by the Association for Advancing Automation (A3) and the Robotic Industries Association (RIA), the AMR Conference features a full day of sessions highlighting everything companies need…

…on more than 30 years of software development for delta robots, Wyzo has refined its pick-and-place software specially for ease of use and control. “It is not a mere machine,” said Souyris. “Wyzo is a co-worker, who is easy to communicate with through a simple interface. Maybe the next generation will even have a conversation with its colleagues.” “Regardless of its conversational skills, however, its ability to be effectively integrated into existing production lines to perform pick-and-place tasks flexibly and reliably will certainly put a smile on manufacturers’ faces” he added. “It is a new benchmark for collaborative production that…

Nano Dimension Ltd. has introduced its DragonFly Lights-Out Digital Manufacturing (LDM) printing technology, a comprehensive additive manufacturing platform for round-the-clock 3D printing of electronic circuitry. The DragonFly LDM system is designed for Industry 4.0 and manufacturing for the Internet of Things and is the extension of the successful DragonFly Pro precision system, which is dedicated to printing electronic components such as multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs), antennas, capacitors and sensors. The DragonFly LDM is already available through Nano Dimension’s global sales channel. In Germany, the launch of the DragonFly LDM was already initiated by Nano Dimension’s reseller, Phytec New Dimension.…

…This week, we look at some predictions for 2022. Ease of use, sensing to improve What robotics capabilities do you expect to improve in the coming year? Susanne Bieller, IFR Bieller: Two trends are expected: more ease of use and improvements in sense and respond. We will see the large robot suppliers tackle both these topics, as well as some dedicated companies developing solutions as add-ons. There is a clear market need for easy-to-program and easy-to-teach robots. The potential of this capability to open up a variety of new applications and customers is huge. The trend will be in 2022…

…RFID chip, including type, color, and amount remaining. The ease of use capabilities are designed to go beyond what was offered on hobbyist desktop 3D print platforms. “Desktop systems have been accessible and affordable, but on the other hand, they require a lot of tinkering in order to make them work as expected,” Goshen explains. “People had to invest a lot of time and effort.” In addition to enabling the engineering workflow for late-stage prototyping, Method will also help organizations promote a design for additive manufacturing (AM) mentality among its engineering ranks. “Organizations that want their workforce thinking about AM…

…tools to their students. Our accessible price point and ease of use will enable more educators to offer the valuable hands-on experiences so critical to success in today’s manufacturing environments.” At a base price of $5,000, educators can now afford to provide a low student-to-equipment ratio so each student can spend more time directly working with the robots. This interactive learning approach not only increases knowledge retention in areas such as mechatronics and programming but also provides a comprehensive view of robotic systems. This prepares students of all levels for real-world application environments while sparking their interest in the field.…

…what they do best – operations that require higher-order reasoning and decision-making. Kane Robotics said it designed GRIT for ease of use, and it requires no specialized expertise to install, operate, or program. The “practical” system is compact and mobile and plugs into 110V electrical outlets, said the company. Almost any manufacturing technician can operate GRIT, which can be up and running in almost any factory within hours or days rather than months or years, leading to faster ROI, said Kane. Kane Robotics will be demonstrating GRIT at Booth 4806 at the MRO Americas Aviation Week exhibition from April 18…
