The growth opportunities for AI and robotics in manufacturing are vast and projected to reach $182 billion globally by 2027. Companies that fail to adopt these exponentially advancing technologies as part of their process risk falling behind, as smart factories powered by intelligent machines become the norm.
We spoke to Michael Mayer-Rosa, Senior Director Industrial Automation Business Group, Delta Electronics EMEA region about the newly introduced Delta Electronics collaborative robots.
While automating processes using robots is a reliable way to increase production throughput and productivity, the savings in floorspace can vary depending on the type of robot chosen. Where space is at a premium, a ceiling-mounted orbital robot can offer a suitable solution.
Eight cores unlock advanced virtualization potential
Software Update enhances applicational possibilities
For lightweight robots, modular designs are increasingly popular thanks to the flexible deployment they enable for specialised tasks. Modular robots also enhancing the potential for system integrators and end users to develop their own designs. As part of an in-house robot build, optimising the drive train that powers and controls each joint is vital to the robot’s performance. The most effective way of achieving this is by developing the drive train as a complete module. This approach can also improve the efficiency of robot development overall.
Smaller manufacturers are the fastest-growing area of industrial robotics today, driven by the need for new collaborative robotics systems.
Grasping and plugging cables is child's play! For us humans, yes. However, automated processing of such flexible parts presents robots with considerable challenges. Nevertheless, the potential is huge; in terms of efficiency and quality as well as in terms of relieving employees, for instance when it comes to handling large, heavy cables.
