Why a machine-tending robot?
Sometimes it’s better to break down complex words to understand their meaning. Let’s do that with the word: Machine-Tending. The first part of the term is Machine. We probably all know what the definition of a machine is. As for the second part of the term, tending refers to the act of carefully providing for someone or something. So, those two words together and in the context of industrial automation, refer to the loading or unloading of parts or material on a machine.
What to know about pick and place robots
Haven’t most of us, during childhood, once hoped for a robot that could pick up our toys, place them back and organize them so that our parents wouldn’t scold us for making a mess? Today, it has become reality. Although robots are not yet picking and placing items in our homes, they are doing so in our factories. Let us try to expand our horizons, by understanding pick and place robots.
Why a Robotic Welding Assistant?
Welding is a fabrication process in which materials such as metals or thermoplastics are joined. It uses heat to melt the joints of the desired parts. The cooling that ensues causes fusion. Welding is different from brazing or soldering where the base material does not melt. There are different types of welding. All of which can be clubbed under two broad categories such as Manual welding and Robotic welding.
Cobots: Pushing the Boundaries
Before diving into the unexplored boundaries of Cobots, it is important to understand that they were never meant to replace humans. Their main purpose is to assist workers and make their tasks more effective and efficient. That’s why they are called Cobots or Collaborative robots. With this in mind, let us explore the new horizons of Cobots.
The benefits of 3D printing in robotics
Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, turns digital files into 3D physical objects by adding material in a layer-by-layer process. Each layer can be seen as a very thin sliced cross-section of the object. Unlike the subtractive manufacturing method where a piece of plastic or metal is cut out, 3D printing gives everyday consumers the power of manufacturing. Now, let’s dig deep into the benefits of using 3D printing in Robotics:
What makes FANUC Robots a Good Choice for DIY solutions?
Think of the FANUC robot as the muscles and DIY-Robotics as your hand. You do not need to know how the FANUC robot is programmed to get your desired work done. Let us identify with the benefits of using FANUC robots in DIY solutions at the existing factory setup:
