Humanoids are considered to be the next big thing in robotics: China has set out specific targets for its plans to mass-produce humanoids, tech companies in the US and Europe are announcing significant funding. The vision is to create general-purpose robots based on human motion mechanics. The International Federation of Robotics has released a new positioning paper that provides valuable insights about trends, opportunities, and potential limitations of humanoids.
Real-time handling of process data at its point of production is an integral aspect of tomorrow’s automation system, enabling a more resilient operating environment for plant owners. ABB’s Kim Fenrich, Global Product Marketing Manager - DCS Platform, explains how edge computing complements the functional separation of core operations from a parallel layer of digital applications for monitoring and performance optimization.
Predictive maintenance prevents unplanned downtime. Fixed maintenance intervals, however, are preventive in nature, as true prediction requires real-time system status information and intelligent data evaluation. The Digital Twin Starter Kit from Bosch Digital Twin Industries and Pepperl+Fuchs offers an easy way to get started.
Whether you’re talking about hybrid regional jets to next-generation air taxis it’s increasingly clear that the future of flight is electric, and electromechanical (EM) actuation is playing a central role in making this a reality. As aircraft systems move away from hydraulics and pneumatics in favor of all-electric architectures.

OPC UA is widely used as a data exchange standard that bridges the gap between OT and IT. A key part of this standard consists of extensible information models and companion specifications. However, many solutions based on OPC UA fail to exploit the potential of these information models and companion specifications. This editorial explains the benefits offered by OPC UA information models and how information models interact with the other components in an IoT solution. Author Dr. Christopher Anhalt is Vice President Product Marketing, Softing Industrial Automation GmbH
Maximum productivity requires not only precision manufacturing processes, but also smooth disposal of the generated waste materials. This is exactly where the new, fully automated waste disposal solution from KABELSCHLEPP Hünsborn comes in, which has just been successfully commissioned at the factory of agricultural machinery manufacturer AGCO Fendt in Asbach-Bäumenheim, Germany. The intelligent conveyor system ensures a smooth flow of materials – with minimum use of personnel and maximum efficiency.
The integration of optimized short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) lenses enables the recovery of more recyclable plastics from waste streams.
