The annual STEM-focused week kicks off April 6, 2019 with more than 300 events across all 50 states

Booth: #N-7515 - Anyone interested in viewing a fully autonomous mobile robotic unloading solution for randomly stacked products should stop by to see this system in action. A vision-guided system with two robotic manipulators operating on top of a mobile platform.

Booth #8157 - LMI will have five demos on display covering complete 3D inline inspection, wide field of view measurement, robotic integration and snapshot sensor solutions.

Booth #7963 - Zimmer Group will be exhibiting our latest developments in HRC (Human Robot Collaborative) grippers designed for most collaborative robots.

The boxes used in the video weigh about 5 Kg (11 lbs), but the robot is designed to handle boxes up to (15 Kg) (33 lb). This version of Handle works with pallets that are 1.2 m deep and 1.7 m tall (48 inches deep and 68 inches tall).

Marty and his robotic kind roam the stores unassisted, using embedded cameras to navigate and avoid customers and store displays. They are capable of spotting spills and items in the aisle and alerting customers and workers to the hazards.

Booth #ProMat 2715 - To extend our presence into the modern, collaborative work environments we have newly released EOATs specifically designed for the working safely among human employees.

Booth #7732 - Dorner will be exhibiting our platforms aimed at automation and robotic applications. Dorner’s 2200 Precision Move Pallet conveyor is designed to provide accurate positioning and routing of parts for assembly, robotic and inspection applications.

Hexapod micro-motion robots are based on very flexible concept that can easily solve complex motion and alignment problems in fields including Optics, Photonics, Precision Automation, Automotive, and Medical Engineering.

The challenges around outdoor snow removal are two-fold. First, businesses and commercial sites must keep walkways and pathways clear for safety reasons and they face a labor shortage of those willing and able to do such incremental work.

The team needed a robotic system for WEAVE that could quickly but efficiently assist in repositioning 1,000 optical fibers every hour to prepare for the next observation. They would also need a way to traverse the enormous work area and connect utilities

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.
