Lion expects to produce approximately 14,000 medium- and heavy-duty vehicles per year at its. new assembly plant in Mirabel, Quebec.
Meeting that sort of production volume requires automation.
FREMONT, CA—On March 5, Anyware Robotics announced an add-on for its Pixmo robot for truck and container unloading. The add-on includes a vertical lift with a conveyor belt that is attached to Pixmo between the robot and the boxes. The integrated Pixmo software processes the heights of the boxes in the container and then controls the conveyor of the add-on to move up and down to these positions to “meet” the robot arm as it unloads. The add-on enhances unloading efficiency, weight capability, and reliability.
LEMONT, IL—In an effort to improve medical isotope production, scientists at Argonne National Laboratory have embarked on a project that harnesses the power of computer-driven robots. The project aims to increase safety and reproducibility, while driving down cost.
