Flexibility and efficiency have become primary differentiators in the e-commerce fulfillment market as retailers and Third-Party Logistics (3PLs) struggle to cope with volatile product demand, seasonal peaks, and rising consumer delivery expectations.
Automate & ProMat 2019 take place at McCormick Place in Chicago, IL April 8th - 11th. This RoboticsTomorrow.com Special Tradeshow report aims to bring you news, articles and products from this years event.
Booth #9530 - We will be using a cobot from Universal Robots to demonstrate safety evaluation and testing for a robot cell. We will also touch on the technical specifications for important robotics standards.
Booth #8360 - piCOBOT®, an EOAT designed for collaborative robots (cobots) using brand new technology from Piab to handle products on a Universal cobot.
Booth #7536 - We are highlighting our recently released Compliant Deburring Blade as well as our low-cost, high-performance Axia80 Force/Torque Sensor.
In a new study published today in Nature, researchers at Columbia Engineering and MIT Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) demonstrate for the first time a way to make a robot composed of many loosely coupled components, or “particles.”
Booth #7368 - We will showcase our new fleet management system, entire fleet of autonomous mobile robots, including the MiR100, MiR200 and the MiR500, the newest robot that is designed to automate the transportation of pallets and heavy loads across industries.
Booth #7729 - the new 4 In 1 servo drive that presents a complete motion control solution in the palm of your hand (We are unveiling it in this exhibition).
More than 20,000 AMRS were shipped in 2018 – double the number sold the year before - according to the results of our freshly released quarterly mobile robot market tracker which shows that AMR demand continued to surge in Q4.
Booth #7532 - IPR will be exhibiting the IP-150, one of the many different rail types that IPR offers to its customers. The work radius of IPR’s 7th axes rails is easy to describe: endless.
Booth #8520 - In the OCTOPUZ booth, visitors will be able to see a Motoman MH5L performing a weld tracing operation on an automotive rim as well as a KUKA KR6 R700 deburring a helmet both programmed and simulated within OCTOPUZ.
